Apple is currently testing several TV set designs, “people familiar with the situation said,” according to a new report in The Wall Street Journal. The company is working with Asian component suppliers on a large, high-resolution TV, as Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. and Sharp have been collaborating on the design, according to sources. “It isn’t a formal project yet. It is still in the early stage of testing,” a source said. The report claims Apple has been testing TV prototypes “for a number of years;” however, it dovetails with statements made by Apple CEO Tim Cook to “Rock Center with Brian Williams,” in which he called TV “an area of intense interest” for Apple.
