Apple has expanded its third-party accessories lineup with eight new products now available through its online and retail stores. Among the additions is the Aqara Thermostat Hub W200, which retails for $169.95—$10 more than Amazon’s price but appealing for users with Apple credit or those shopping directly from Apple. Launched by Aqara in April following its unveiling at CES 2026, the thermostat supports Apple Home-specific features such as Apple Adaptive Temperature and Clean Energy Guidance via the Home app.
Apple also continues to offer the higher-priced ecobee Smart Thermostat Premium, which includes built-in Siri and Home Kit support rather than Home Kit over Matter. The updated inventory also includes the Aqara Climate Sensor W100 alongside six other accessories: the Nimble Powerstack Charger/Battery System, Herschel Cloudform Sleeves for 14" and 16" MacBook models, the Herschel Cloudform Backpack XL, the Cal Digit Thunderbolt 5 (USB-C) Pro Cable (2.0m), and the Logitech Spotlight 2 Presentation Remote. These additions reinforce Apple’s push to integrate more smart home and productivity-focused third-party devices into its ecosystem.
Looking ahead, Apple is expected to launch the iPhone Duo later this month and may unveil a rumored Home Pod with a display in October.
