Leaked images reveal Apple’s new Home smart lock, thermostat, more for LG

Bloomberg announced yesterday that Apple collaborated with LG to create new smart home products under LG's label. Leaked images have surfaced, showing the appearance of the forthcoming smart lock, thermostat, and temperature sensor. Apple is expected to unveil significant updates to its Home lineup next week, alongside the release of the new Apple TV 4K and HomePod mini, along with the debut of a fresh product category dubbed 'HomePad.'

However, Bloomberg revealed additional information through a Bloomberg report yesterday. The company has created a new set of Home accessories that will be marketed under the LG brand. These accessories are rumored to consist of a smart lock, thermostat, temperature sensor, video doorbell, indoor camera, outdoor camera, and floodlight camera.

Leaker pdfu shared images of three of these products today: the smart lock, smart thermostat, and temperature sensor. The leaked images show the smart deadbolt lock featuring a rotating keypad, settings for "Touchpad Light Ring, Door Left Audio Alarm, and Lock Sound Volume," and support for automatic unlocking. According to Mark Gurman, these new products may not be available for immediate shipment as early as Apple's new HomePod and Apple TV.
