From PC Mag: Apple is reportedly set to debut a new smart home device, dubbed HomeView, this week at its “Welcome Home” smart home event on Tuesday.
The new device will act as a “Siri command center” for an Apple-powered smart home, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. HomeView will reportedly come equipped with a display and an Apple-designed A18 chip. It’s set to launch with two versions: “a countertop model with a metal speaker base and a wall-mounted version with a flat, square base that sits against the wall beneath the display.”
The countertop offering will give buyers more variety when it comes to colors available, with space gray, silver, starlight and pink versions all up for grabs. Meanwhile, the wall-mounted version will be limited to only space gray and silver. Earlier reports indicated that the device’s square display will be measured 7-inchs and that it will feature built-in facial recognition technology.
