Apple sent out notices that it will hold a new product launch event in New York on 13 October, U.S. time. The theme is “Welcome home.”, leading to speculation that new products for the home will be announced.
Apple sent invitations for a new product launch event in New York starting at 9:00 a.m. on 13 October, U.S. time. In Japan, it is expected to begin at around 10:00 p.m. the same day, and the timing of the event has been officially announced.
In a video posted on X by Greg Joswiak, Apple’s senior vice president of worldwide marketing, the words “Welcome home.” suggest that multiple home products may be announced.
Rumors indicate that a new home hub may be unveiled, with a design potentially resembling the former “iMac G4.” A refresh of the HomePod mini and Apple TV, hardware updates supporting AI processing, and new colors for a compact speaker have also been reported as possibilities.
