Apple releases HomeView display and fourth-generation Apple TV 4K
Both devices cost US$299, but HomeView is unavailable in the European Union amid regulatory constraints affecting Siri AI.
Apple is releasing its HomeView smart home display and fourth-generation Apple TV 4K on November 13, with each priced at US$299. Preorders for the devices opened in mid-October.
HomeView uses Apple Intelligence and Siri AI to support entertainment and home management. Buyers can choose a tabletop version or a wall-mounted model. Facial recognition allows the display to identify as many as six users and give each a personalized Home Screen.
The new Apple TV 4K includes an A19 chip, Siri AI and 128GB of storage. Its updated Siri Remote adds Find My, while the device supports four-speaker surround sound using HomePod mini 2.
HomeView is not available in the European Union, where regulatory constraints currently prevent Siri AI from being available on iOS. Apple says it is working with the EU toward a resolution but has given no date for HomeView availability there.
Apple announced both devices on October 13, together with HomePod mini 2. That speaker went on sale October 30.
