Apple unveiled HomeView, its first smart display, priced at $299 and designed to sit on a countertop or wall. It works as a smart home hub and a showcase for the revamped Siri, which can access personal data such as messages and calendar events from a user's iPhone, something rivals like Amazon and Google cannot do. The device supports up to six face-recognized profiles, with apps and widgets changing for each user similar to CarPlay, and it requires an iPhone or iPad. It also includes FaceTime and a music app with on-screen lyrics. The reviewer notes the lack of physical buttons, with volume controlled via Siri or the touchscreen, and wonders whether HomeView can reduce how often people need their iPhone at home.
