Expanding Apple’s Smart Home Presence
Apple іs set tо expand its smart home presence, according tо Ming-Chi Kuo. The well-sourced analyst reported оn Tuesday that the iPhone maker іs working оn an IP (internet protocol) camera with an expected 2026 shipping date.
Manufacturing Partnership With Goertek
The analyst notes that Chinese component maker, Goertek, is set to assemble the product, which Apple expects to eventually hit tens of millions of units a year. The company would be a latecomer to an already sizable market that includes products from Google and Amazon.
New Health-Focused AirPods Models
Goertek is also expected to manufacture upcoming AirPod models, according to the rumor. The headphones are said to have an even broader focus on health features, following Apple’s expansion into hearing aid capabilities on the AirPods Pro 2.
