Starting as early as 2011, Gene Munster, a longtime investment banking analyst at Piper Sandler Companies, rumored that Apple would announce an HD television set hardware to compete with Sony, LG, Samsung, and other TV manufacturers. Apple's final major industrial attempt before the Apple TV was the commission of the Apple Pippin in 1990s, which combined home game console with a networked computer.
The Box was a collaboration venture between Apple, BT Group, and Proximus Group, but it was never released to the general public.

The TV had a 14-inch CRT screen alongside a TV tuner card. In 1993, in an attempt to enter the home-entertainment industry, Apple released the Macintosh TV.
