Apple’s rumored smart home display looks like an old friend — the iMac G4 from the early 2000s. in the year In this weekend’s newsletter, Mark Gurman reports that the desktop tablet will have a square screen “situated on a small base at an angle, reminiscent of the rounded bottom of the iMac G4.” It may also house the speakers. A higher-end version of the device is expected to be launched next year, later with a robot member that can change the position of the display.
According to Gurman, the more affordable model to be released first will have a relatively small screen and be “about the size of two iPhones side by side.” It’s designed to be used for smart home controls, but will also run apps like FaceTime and Calendar, and display photos and videos. According to Gurman, the more expensive model will have a larger screen in addition to robotic capabilities. We probably won’t see this product until at least 2026, as he previously predicted, and it could set you back almost $1,000. Both models are expected to come with Apple Intelligence.
