Apple Just Announced a New Gadget that Could Be Key to Its AI Push
Apple’s new smart display uses Siri AI and facial recognition to personalize calendars, messages and calls for each household member.
- On Tuesday, October 13, Apple officially unveiled the HomeView, a $299 smart home hub with a 7-inch display arriving November 13. The device enables personalized experiences for up to six household members using Siri AI.
- Apple's launch follows delays waiting for its overhauled Siri AI to mature, marking the company's largest smart home push since HomeKit debuted in 2014. The device showcases CEO John Ternus's focus on AI-driven hardware growth.
- Inspired by the 2002 iMac G4, the HomeView comes in countertop and wall-mounted models with facial recognition for six users. A privacy-focused visitor mode hides sensitive household data while maintaining personalized functionality.
- The device directly competes with Amazon's Echo Show and Google's Nest Hub. Simultaneously, Apple introduced the Apple Home Collection—cameras, thermostats, and locks co-developed with LG Electronics and Schneider Electric.
- Marking a critical test for new CEO John Ternus's hardware strategy, the launch signals Apple's AI-focused pivot. However, HomeView remains unavailable in the European Union because Siri AI is currently restricted there.
