在CES上，苹果突然将AirPlay 2扩展到各大热门电视品牌，索尼宣布将在自己的电视机上增加对该功能的支持，这又是一个惊喜。这里有一点非常有趣：如果你不知道，索尼电视运行的是安卓电视软件。因此，Android TV不久将能够通过AirPlay 2播放音乐、电影、屏幕镜像等内容。首先，刚刚发布的A9G OLED 4K和Z9G 8K LCD将与X950G系列一样，接受AirPlay 2和HomeKit支持。

索尼是这么说的：

Sony Z9G Series, A9G Series, X950G Series TVs will be compatible with Apple AirPlay 2 and HomeKit. AirPlay 2 lets you effortlessly stream content from your iPhone, iPad and Mac right to your Sony TV. Watch movies and TV shows from iTunes and your other video apps, and view photos directly on your Sony TV. Listen to Apple Music, your iTunes music library, podcasts and your other music services on your television and AirPlay 2 speakers throughout the home — all in sync. HomeKit lets you easily and securely control **art home products using the Home app or by asking Siri on your Apple devices. These TVs can be added to the Home app and included in scenes or automati*** with other HomeKit accessories. For example, users can create a “Movie Night” scene in the Home app to easily turn on their TV and dim the lights, and simply ask Siri to launch the scene. AirPlay 2 and HomeKit support will launch in Z9G Series, A9G Series, X950G Series later this year.

这不是我在今年参加CES时所期望看到的。但我想，在三星为自己的电视推出AirPlay 2并与苹果联合宣布iTunes电影和电视节目应用程序即将推出后，我应该意识到一切皆有可能。

这实际上是有先例的。这并不是Android设备第一次以本机方式支持AirPlay。HTC10将其作为内置功能；HTC实际上为此从苹果公司获得了许可。

到目前为止，三星、LG、Vizio和索尼已经签署协议，将AirPlay 2集成到他们的电视中。LG、Vizio和索尼也加入了HomeKit支持，这使得在智能家居小工具和其他设备中加入电视变得更简单。三星还没有做出任何与HomeKit配合良好的承诺，因此它可能是局外人。
