5 things Google’s rumored Home Display should steal from the Apple HomeView

Android Authority reports that a new smart display from Google feels like a matter of "when" rather than "if." This follows comments from Google Home’s chief product officer and rumors regarding a product called the Google Home Display. The outlet notes that since the testing of the Google Home Speaker over three months ago, the Nest Audio and Nest Mini were discontinued, and the second-generation Nest Hub and Nest Hub Max are currently out of stock on the Google Store.

9to5Mac reports that an oversight on Apple’s French regulatory website may have confirmed the existence of an OLED iPad mini. A Smart Folio for iPad mini with model number A3632, which does not correspond to existing products, was spotted on the site. The regulatory document is dated September 8, 2026.

According to documentation from Apple, this new Smart Folio contains at least 3% recycled materials and at least 6,610 milligrams of rare earth elements. These figures differ from the current model, which contains a minimum of 9% recycled materials and 3,947 milligrams of rare earth elements. While the figures do not reveal specific design details, the new model number suggests changes may be coming.
