Apple plans to introduce three new smart home products on Tuesday, October 13, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. The lineup includes a long-awaited smart home hub device, a new HomePod mini, and a new Apple TV. The new HomePod mini and Apple TV retain their existing designs but feature faster chips to support Siri AI.

The HomePod mini will also come in new colors including pink and green. All three products showcase Siri AI, explaining the launch delay from their original 2024 timeline. Apple plans to update the larger HomePod later and is developing a privacy-focused home security camera and sensor that can detect room location without recording video.

A higher-end smart home hub with a 9-inch display on a 360-degree robotic arm is also in development.
