À about 24 hours before the Apple conference, the wall of secrecy is cracking. The release dates of the brand’s future new products, including the unprecedented connected screen, are leaking online.
As already mentioned yesterday (cf. our news item Apple Keynote “at home” of October 13: connected screen, Apple TV 4K and HomePod Mini?), Apple has therefore sent its invitation cards to a selection of journalists for an event taking place in New York tomorrow, Tuesday, October 13 at 3 p.m., French time. And the latest rumors are very clear about the arrival of a brand-new product, a “Home Hub,” namely a connected screen specially designed for the home.
The Home Hub screen expected for mid-November
For those who don’t like waiting, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman is spilling the beans. According to his sources, the release date for this new product would be set for mid-November. Timing that is no accident, perfect for it to end up under the Christmas tree.
Apple TV 4K and HomePod mini: arriving on October 30
Mark Gurman doesn’t stop there. He also reveals the presentation of two other highly anticipated products: a new Apple TV 4K box and a new version of the HomePod Mini speaker. The rumored availability of these two models is set for October 30.
