26 commentairesMickaël Bazoge | Airplay 2 compatibility on televisions of several major brands was undeniably one of the big surprises of the 2019 edition of CES.LG, Samsung, Sony and Vizio answered Apple's call, and this collaboration should not stop on such a good path: it seems to foreshadow the coming launch of the Apple Video streaming service.
If these four manufacturers weigh heavily on the connected television market, they are not the only.TCL is one of the essentials of the sector, with third place around the world and significant growth in the United States.The Chinese group was not invited to the party.A company spokesperson explained to Macrumors that he was currently "engaged with Roku", who has developed his own application platform.
At first glance, nothing prevents TCL or Roku from joining Airplay 2 in their products.TVs on the first and the second streaming boxes are sold out because of their floor prices.Embark Apple's wireless diffusion technology in these devices would allow it to gain popularity suddenly.But there are undoubtedly technical and commercial constraints which we do not know everything at the moment.We have also obtained a little word from Hisense, who said that he had "nothing confirmed to date".
Airplay 2 support is not just happy: a petition is currently circulating to ask LG to integrate technology in webos oled televisions launched since 2016.The manufacturer does not offer the management of AirPlay 2 and Homekit only on its 2019 televisions.
An actually curious choice, knowing that Samsung will deliver an update of the firmware for its 2018 smart TVs, and that Vizio announced this support for televisions dating back to 2017 - including for very cheap models.

Nice petition for LG, but it's not just the oled in life...??

Well is the top of the range of TVs, people who have invested a fortune in it want these functions because they will not be able to change for a while, I think.

Ma LG LED de 65" non plus je vais pas la changer avant un moment, et elle a pas couté 499 €??

It's true, I got carried away.Now that you say it, I don't understand why they just want it to be the OLED TV...There are very good model 65, 75 See 85 inch LEDs which also deserve to be AirPlay compatible...I keep the TV minimum 15/20 years (I still have a Catholic in my room), it would bother me a lot...

@Armandgz123
Amen?? I kept a Pana plasma of 42 "for...12 years old? But I think I change + early next time, anyway.

it is signed for the petition.I think LG will add at least the support for OLED 2018.It would be a big foutage of mouth not to have even 1 year of updates for a high -end TV!

Mouis...Let's be optimistic !

Not possible for Samsung TV at the end of 2016... ou pas envie de mettre à jour??

Maybe a simple lack of power of the mockeders or of memories that incorporate these TVs.I don't think others are yesterday that they work the subject...

I have an OLED of 2017 it would be great if it was taken care of!I resolved to buy the Apple TV 4K...2 months ago ?

@Benoît42
I sent an email to LG but no answer.Your answer gives a little hope but good with these large groups nothing is less certain.Some that if it had been Apple instead of LG we wouldn't even have to hope for something.

And Panasonic, no news?
sebnutt |
Well no, it was not the brand to buy finally.I regret not having taken a 4K Samsung...
Gilles2811 |
Frankly that's why I prefer with a beautiful TV but an external case for the connected part, an Apple TV 4K or a chromeScast is not the same price to change when the tv support is no longer done bythe brand

Yes!Is it going in the right direction for LG?Because I would be really disgusted on their part that my high -end 2018 model acquired about 2 weeks ago in a private?
plazza |
I doubt that all Samsung 2018 models are supported.Maybe only high-end models.
