Apple is set to host a special event on October 13, 2026, with the tagline "Welcome home". The event, which has been confirmed by Apple Senior Vice President of Worldwide Marketing Greg Joswiak, will feature an "Apple Experience" starting at 9 AM ET. The teaser video for the event, which has confirmed the date, has not revealed the specific products that will be unveiled.
However, the tagline suggests that the focus will be on smart home products. Sources have leaked information about a smart home hub, which has been unofficially named the HomePad, with a 6-inch screen and a J490 codename. The device is expected to feature an iPad-like interface and support for intercom-style calls and facial recognition.
Additionally, leaks have pointed to a new HomePod mini and a new Apple TV 4K box, both reportedly built around the new Siri AI. It is also rumored that Apple is working with LG to create more smart home products. However, the event is unlikely to feature the OLED touchscreen MacBook or the new iPad mini, which are expected to have a separate launch event on October 27, 2026.
The 14-inch MacBook Pro and iMac with M6 chips are also expected to be unveiled at this event, but there is no official confirmation yet.
