Apple HomeView: What analysts predict about the incoming smart home hub

After the hype surrounding the iPhone Duo, Apple has another new product ready to be unveiled under its new CEO, John Ternus. The rumoured smart home hub, which analysts now call the HomeView, is essentially a HomePod speaker with a touchscreen display attached to the device. That’s not the only thing in Apple’s smart home ambitions.

Featuring design cues that are reminiscent of the iconic iMac G4 from decades ago, along with an A18 processor and a deep integration with Apple Intelligence, industry analysts and insiders say HomeView could be Apple’s most aggressive move yet to unify the connected home experience within the Apple ecosystem.
