Apple Builds a Connected Home

Four LG cameras join a smart lock, 2 thermostats and sensors in the Home app. They record up to 2.5K, identify familiar faces and packages, and keep 10 days of footage end-to-end encrypted in iCloud+. There is no separate camera subscription. US and Canada sales start in December.

HomePod mini 2 costs $149 and arrives October 30. Apple TV 4K costs $299 and goes on sale November 13, with an A19 chip up to 50% faster in CPU tasks. Siri answers questions hands-free, and the remote is searchable through Find My.

Apple TV 4K can use 4 HomePod mini 2 speakers as a surround-sound theater, detecting their positions and syncing volume automatically. Siri AI is coming later and currently works only in English.
