Apple Has a New Smart Home Strategy: Screens Everywhere
For years, Apple Inc. has sold the go-to devices for our pockets, wrists, backpacks and desks. But it has struggled to achieve that kind of success in other key areas: the car, the face and the home.
Over the next two years, I expect home hardware to be a top priority for Apple. The push will include developing a new homeOS operating system and smart display, as well as a higher-end robotic tabletop device.
For Apple’s next slate of home hardware to be successful, it has to support as many accessories as possible…
The company’s goal is to use its new Apple Intelligence platform to offer home automation on steroids, as well as precise control of applications, devices and media.
The third component of the smart home strategy is software. That includes the new homeOS

Journalist has nothing to write about. Is pretty obvious now that WB would be selling down AAPL to be around 10% of BRK portfolio. There after he would announce his retirement and his successor.
Still got people who understand how WB thinks. Doubt WB would sell out of AAPL. IMHO, reduce to 10% and let the successor decides.
I’m breaking my almost decade-long silence on the topic of $AAPL building a branded television set.
Signs of Apple re-visiting home automation.
If court disallows Google to pay Apple, Apple could start a full blown (currently is limited) ads business.
