Apple HomeView: A 7-Inch Smart Display With Face Recognition
Cupertino – October 21, 2026 -- Apple has introduced HomeView, a 7-inch Liquid Retina smart home display that recognizes up to six people by face. Pre-orders start today, and the device ships November 13.
Two designs: a tabletop model and a wall-mounted model
The tabletop HomeView pairs an aluminum-framed display with a domed speaker base through a stainless steel hinge that tilts the screen. It comes in silver, starlight, rose pink and space gray, each with a matching cable.
A separate wall-mounted model, available in space gray and silver, has the same display. It attaches with three purpose-built mounts from Schneider Home, and buyers can install it themselves or hire a professional.
Automatic brightness runs from 500 nits down to 0.3 nits for nightstand use. The interface shows simpler information from across the room and more detail as users step closer.
