- Bloomberg reports on an exciting new development at Apple.
- We’re talking about an iPad-like screen that is primarily intended for home kit control.
- In terms of price, the touchscreen should be in the lower range.
Apple’s iPad lineup is broad, but the Cupertino-based manufacturer seems to have found a gap. A Bloomberg report according to Apple is working on a kind of low-cost iPad that, similar to the Amazon Echo Show, is intended for taking video calls and controlling the smart home.
A special feature that would certainly look good on the existing iPad portfolio: the new product is supposed to stick magnetically to a wall bracket or other objects. Will MagSafe technology soon find its way into the iPad series?
The iPhone inventor is also rumored to be hatching another smart home device that will combine HomePod, Apple TV and FaceTime camera. But the development seems to have stalled. Apple introduced a new HomePod this week.
