Apple is set to host a significant event on October 13th, centered around its smart home initiatives. The event's title, "Welcome home," foreshadows this focus. Rumors suggest Apple may unveil a range of new smart home devices.
Bloomberg claims Apple is preparing a smart home hub with a display and is set to integrate the updated Siri AI assistant. MacRumors has managed to acquire images of two reported devices - a refreshed HomePod Mini in new colors and an Apple TV 4K with a design similar to the current model. Bloomberg also disclosed Apple's partnership with LG to develop products such as a video doorbell and a thermostat.
In addition to these rumored devices, Apple is expected to showcase a new smart display, aptly named HomeView, during the event. The new Apple TV 4K will feature built-in microphones to facilitate interaction with Siri AI. However, it's important to note that the new Apple Home Collection, which includes a video doorbell, smart lock, and other smart home devices, will not be available at launch. The event is scheduled to take place in New York at 9AM ET.
