As part of its plans, Apple aims to launch smart home displays starting with a tablet product — essentially a low-end iPad — that can control things like thermostats and lights, show video and handle FaceTime chats, people with knowledge of the plans said.
Apple Inc. is working on a slate of devices aimed at challenging Amazon.com Inc. and Google in, including new displays and a faster TV set-top box, after relaunching its larger HomePod speaker.
The product could be mounted on walls or elsewhere using magnetic fasteners, positioning it as more of a home gadget than a regular iPad. While the iPad already has smart-home features, standalone smart-home devices — often designed as countertops or wall-mounted appliances — have grown increasingly popular.And the latter company — part of Alphabet Inc. — is readying a Pixel Tablet with an optional stand.
