Apple launches $299 HomeView smart display and fourth-generation Apple TV 4K
Apple launched two products on November 13: the HomeView smart display and the fourth-generation Apple TV 4K.
The HomeView is Apple's first smart home display, designed for entertainment and controlling connected devices around the home.
It comes in tabletop and wall-mounted versions, and both cost $299 in the United States.
The device uses Siri AI and can recognize up to six people, giving each a personalized Home Screen.
Reviewers praised its design and screen, but noted that some smart home devices may not work with it and the wall-mounted model needs a separately purchased mount.
HomeView is not being sold in the European Union because Siri AI is currently unavailable there due to regulatory constraints.
Apple says it is working with the EU, but has given no timeline for availability; the new Apple TV 4K also launched for $299, with an A19 chip and updated Siri Remote.
