Apple’s Home Hub won’t be a HomePod with a speaker, but a separate display
The so-called Home Hub has been rumored for almost as long as the HomePod has existed. Users are interested in a “HomePod with an interactive display” similar to Google’s and Amazon’s products.
It seemed as if Apple would launch such a product line sometime soon, but according to the Power On newsletter, that launch will now occur in 2026. The Home Hub product is inherently tied to the contextual Siri and Apple Intelligence features that rely on app intents, which were delayed into the next year.
