Apple’s $1,000 Tabletop Robot Could Arrive in 2027

Apple's rumored $1,000 tabletop robot could launch in 2027 with a swiveling display and Siri AI, but software delays may push its release into 2028. The post Apple’s $1,000 Tabletop Robot Could Arrive in 2027 appeared first on TechRepublic .

Apple is rumored to be developing a $1,000 tabletop robot with a 9-inch swiveling display and Siri AI, but delays in software development could push its release to 2028. The device, internally known as J595, has been under development for two years while software teams struggle to make it useful. Apple CEO John Ternus is reportedly keen to enter the robotics market, making this launch a key test for his leadership.

The robot is expected to launch in 2027, though the price could increase depending on component costs. Apple is reportedly working with BYD to manufacture the robot in Vietnam, potentially avoiding some reliance on China.
