  "account": "Two days prior to Apple's \"Welcome Home\" event in New York, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman has disclosed several details about the upcoming devices to be showcased. Among these are an entirely new smart home hub, a HomePod mini 2, and a redesigned Apple TV 4K. Here is a comprehensive rundown of the information provided by Gurman:\n\nThe smart home hub, named HomeView, features a touch-enabled display and is powered by an A18 chip with 8GB of RAM, similar to what's found in iPhones. HomeView will integrate Siri AI for voice control and will be available in two forms: a tabletop version with a metal speaker base and a wall-mounted variant with a flat, square wall plate. The tabletop variant promises superior sound quality compared to the HomePod mini. HomeView is scheduled for unveiling on October 13, but its launch is anticipated around mid-November. It will come with select Apple apps, but will not host an App Store for third-party applications. Complementing HomeView will be an \"Apple Home Collection\" of accessories, including a smart doorbell, deadbolt lock, thermostat, temperature sensor, indoor and outdoor security cameras, and a floodlight camera. These LG-developed accessories, however, will not be released until later in the year.\n\nThe next-generation HomePod mini will be equipped with the S10 chip from the Apple Watch Series 10, an upgrade from the S5 chip currently in use. This new HomePod mini will be offered in a variety of hues, including green, pink, blue, white, and midnight. Lastly, the new Apple TV 4K will be powered by an A19 chip with 8GB of RAM. It may feature built-in microphones for Siri AI and could introduce an updated Siri Remote with an integrated speaker, enhancing its findability. The new HomePod mini and Apple TV 4K models are slated for display on October 13 and are expected to go on sale on October 30.",
