Apple marks original Apple TV 4K as vintage

Apple has now classified the first-generation Apple TV 4K, released in 2017, as a 'vintage' product. That means it's more than five years since Apple last sold it, and future repairs could get tricky—service depends on whether spare parts are around. The move comes just days ahead of a new Apple TV 4K model, which is expected to launch next week.

Why it mattersIf you still use the original Apple TV 4K, getting it fixed by Apple may get harder as parts run out. Apple is nudging owners towards its next-generation streaming box, which is about to debut.
