Apple announced two products for the home on October 13, 2026, MacRumors reported.
- HomeView. A smart home hub with a 7-inch display and support for the new Siri. It can sit on a table or mount on a wall. Price: $299.
- Apple TV 4K. The fourth generation, with an A19 chip, an updated remote and built-in microphones. Price: $299.
Both went up for pre-order that day and were set to launch on November 13.
Why it mattered
Amazon and Google have sold screens for the kitchen counter for years. Apple had not. HomeView is its first, and it depends on the conversational Siri Apple introduced in June. A hub you talk to is only as good as the assistant inside it.
