Follow-up: Apple HomeView Goes on Sale Today at $299 in Eight Markets, With the EU Left Out for Now

Friday, November 13, 2026 · Technology · GSM News

Apple's first smart display, the HomeView, went on sale on November 13. When Apple introduced the product in Cupertino, California, on October 13, it said the tabletop and wall-mounted models would each cost $299 in the United States and become available on November 13 in the U.S., Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand and the UK, with Singapore and South Africa joining the same day, for eight launch markets in total. According to MacRumors, the first pre-orders began reaching customers in Australia and New Zealand, which rolled into November 13 earlier by time zone.

HomeView has a 7-inch Liquid Retina display and an A18 chip, and is built around Siri AI, the new version of Siri powered by Apple Intelligence. It can recognize up to six household members by face, show each person a personalized Home Screen and personal content, and control smart home devices such as lights, locks, thermostats and cameras. The tabletop model comes in silver, starlight, rose pink and space gray; the wall-mounted model in space gray and silver.

Privacy is central to the pitch. HomeView and its A18 chip include Secure Exclaves, isolated runtimes that process camera and microphone data separately from the rest of the system; Apple says that data cannot be accessed by the HomeView software, apps, the user, or Apple itself.

HomeView is not being sold in the European Union for now. Apple says Siri AI is currently unavailable on iOS in the EU, and that it is working with the EU to find a path forward. Mounts for the wall model from Schneider Home are also on sale, starting at $59.95, and the Apple Home Collection line of cameras, thermostats and a lock, developed with LG Electronics and Schneider Electric, follows starting in December.

The fourth-generation Apple TV 4K, also unveiled on October 13, likewise went on sale on November 13 at $299 in the U.S. GSM covered HomeView's unveiling on October 13; this report marks its official launch. (Source: Apple)
