Apple Expected to Refresh Smart Home Lineup with New TV and HomePod Mini Models Later This Year

Apple is reportedly working on refreshed versions of the Apple TV 4K and HomePod Mini, both expected to feature internal hardware upgrades to support Apple Intelligence. The new Apple TV 4K may include a built-in camera, custom-designed Wi-Fi and Bluetooth chip, and a newer S-series chip for the HomePod Mini 2. Development delays may push the launch of a dedicated hub for Apple's Home devices to a later date.
