  1. Apple HomeView hands-on: first smart display leans on Siri AI

    TechRadar spent more hands-on time with HomeView, Apple's first smart display, positioned as a stationary in-home hub for the Apple ecosystem. The interface resembles an oversized Apple Watch face, recognizes up to six people and switches between their accounts, and locks apps such as Messages when someone else approaches. Siri is central to the experience, handling smart home controls, music playback and multi-step questions such as when a friend will get home by drawing on Messages and estimated transit times, though the reporter sometimes had to repeat requests during the brief demo.
