I'm already dreading Apple's camera-equipped AirPods

Engadget

Well, it seems like those-rumored AirPods with cameras are close to being real, according to the latest report from Mark Gurman . The new earbuds are said to use low-resolution cameras on their stalks to capture low-resolution imagery, which will ultimately be fed to Apple's long-delayed AI Siri assistant. And the more I hear about them, the more they sound like Meta's Ray-Ban smart glasses, just without the ability to take clear photos and videos. The camera-equipped Airpods are reportedly in Apple's design validation testing (DVT) stage, where workers are using prototypes to test their capabilities. There's no word on when we may actually see them, but according to Gurman they were initially slated to debut as early as the first half of 2026, only to be pushed back by AI Siri delays.

Engadget

It may be a while still before we see the smart home hub Apple is rumored to be working on. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, the company has postponed the announcement of the upcoming product due to the issues it's run into developing its "smarter" Siri. Gurman reported last month that the release of Apple's upgraded Siri may be delayed, and Apple confirmed as much in a statement to Daring Fireball last week, saying it expects to roll out Siri's more personalized features "in the coming year." The smart home hub, according to Gurman, "to an extent, relies on the delayed Siri capabilities." Gurman previously reported that the first version of the smart home display could be revealed as soon as March.

Apple may tap into a beloved retro design for its smart home display

Engadget

Apple's rumored smart home display may look a lot like an old friend -- the iMac G4 of the early 2000s. In the Power On newsletter this weekend, Mark Gurman reports that the countertop tablet will feature a square screen that's "positioned at an angle on a small base, making it reminiscent of the circular bottom of the iMac G4." That may be where the speakers are housed too. The device is expected to arrive sometime next year, followed later on by a higher-end version with a robotic limb that can change the position of the display. The more affordable model, which will be released first, will have a relatively small screen, according to Gurman, being "about the size of two iPhones side by side."
