Earlier this year, Samsung announced that its new series of smart TVs would support Apple’s AirPlay 2 and HomeKit.

And now the company has just announced that the lineup is now available to buy or pre-order, depending on the model you want to make yours. The smallest size in Samsung’s 2019 QLED smart TV lineup is 43 inches, but you can go big and pick up a TV with a 98-inch display if you are so inclined. AirPlay 2 is specifically supported in the QLED lineup.

“Our 2019 QLED line is designed for users who want the best combination of picture quality, smart TV capabilities and design,” said Andrew Sivori, VP, TV Product Marketing, Samsung Electronics America. “This year’s lineup represents our largest screen size offering ever. It brings together innovative feature enhancements and exciting content and service partnerships to deliver a truly groundbreaking viewing experience and unprecedented value.”

Samsung notes that the app for iTunes Movies and TV shows, which will allow owners to buy content directly from Apple’s iTunes digital storefront, is featured on these TVs. Meanwhile, for specific 2018 models, the same app will become available at a future date following the arrival of a software update.

“Samsung’s QLED lineup offers 4K and 8K models in a range of sizes to suit the needs of every home and every lifestyle. The 2019 QLED 4K line spans four series—Q60, Q70, Q80 and Q90—that range from 43 to 82 inches. They join the 2019 QLED 8K line, which is available in five sizes ranging from 65 to 98 inches.”

And here is the full list of 2019 lineup. Again, only the 2019 QLED lineup supports AirPlay 2.
