Apple is still expected to announce three new products on Tuesday, October 13, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. The lineup reportedly includes an all-new smart home hub, a new HomePod mini, and a new Apple TV 4K, with Siri AI positioned as a feature across all three devices.
Gurman discussed the plans on his Power On podcast, describing the expected launch as an “online home event.” However, it is not yet clear whether Apple will present the products in a single, feature-length video or announce them through separate press releases on its Newsroom website.
What Apple is expected to announce
The reported product lineup covers three parts of Apple's home technology range. The smart home hub would be a new category for the company, while the HomePod mini and Apple TV 4K would represent updates to existing products.
- An all-new smart home hub
- A new HomePod mini
- A new Apple TV 4K
Gurman said Siri AI will be part of all three products. The source does not provide further details about the devices, including their designs, pricing, technical specifications, or availability.
Apple's October 13 event format remains uncertain
The phrase “online home event” leaves room for more than one launch format. Apple could publish a dedicated video presentation, or it could introduce the products through a collection of written announcements and individual videos on YouTube.
That distinction matters because the launch may not resemble Apple's larger prerecorded product events. Regardless of the format, selected reporters and content creators would likely get hands-on time with the devices later that day, according to Gurman's account.
What the launch could mean for Apple's smart home push
A launch spanning a smart home hub, a HomePod mini, and an Apple TV 4K would put Apple's home-focused hardware in the spotlight at the same time. Siri AI being associated with each product also suggests that Apple is presenting the devices as part of a connected home experience rather than as unrelated updates.
For now, the announcement remains an expectation rather than a confirmed Apple event. Apple has not been identified as having publicly detailed the October 13 plans in the available information, so the exact product names, specifications, pricing, and presentation style remain unknown.
