Leak reveals new design details about Apple’s upcoming smart display
Apple is less than two weeks away from launching its new smart display, according to a new Bloomberg report. The report also adds details about the design of Apple’s long-awaited smart home hub.
Bloomberg reports that the home hub will have a 6-inch square display. The overall design is reminiscent of the iconic iMac G4, which featured a half-dome-shaped base with a metal arm holding up its display.
The device is said to be “about as thick as an iPhone” with quarter-inch, black bezels similar to older iPads. It has rounded corners with “no sharp edges,” Mark Gurman says.
Bloomberg also says there’s a second version of the home hub that’s “designed to be mounted on a wall.” This version uses USB-C for power and has a “thin, square-shaped base beneath the display that houses the speakers and microphones.” The base reportedly “sits flat on the wall below the screen.”
You can read the full report at Bloomberg. What do you think of Apple’s home hub product? Are you planning to buy one (or multiple)? Let us know down in the comments.
