The segment covered the new HomeView smart display, the fourth-generation Apple TV 4K and the HomePod mini refresh. The HomeView is Apple’s new smart display, while the HomePod mini update refreshes an existing product in Apple’s home audio line.

The fourth-generation Apple TV 4K drew attention for its price. 9to5Mac described it as insanely priced, a first-impression judgment that points to the cost of the device. The report also included the HomePod mini refresh as part of the event lineup.

9to5Mac said it remains to be seen whether these new initiatives in the Apple Home Collection can help move the needle on smart home uptake at large. The report called the effort a good start, while stopping short of predicting broader market impact.

In a separate segment, 9to5Mac’s Happy Hour Plus noted that a new iOS beta brings a new Apple Music icon. The item was mentioned alongside the smart home event discussion and is not part of the Apple Home Collection.

The Apple Home Collection name groups the new products in the report. Apple already sells Apple TV and HomePod devices, and the event extends that line with the HomeView smart display, a new Apple TV 4K and a refreshed HomePod mini. The 9to5Mac first impressions are based on what was shown at the event.
