Apple may unveil new smart home products next week
Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman reports that Apple could hold a special event on October 13 to present new smart home products, just a month after its last major fall event.
Apple may not be done with announcements for this fall, as a new special event could reportedly take place next week. According to Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman's latest "Power On" newsletter, the tech giant is expected to hold the event on October 13.
A focus on smart home technology
Unlike the company's previous, broader fall event, this time Apple appears set to concentrate on a specific area — smart home products. Gurman's report suggests that several new items in this category could be showcased at the upcoming presentation.
An unusually short gap between events
Only about a month has passed since Apple's last major fall event, making a new presentation so soon a fairly unusual move for a company that typically spaces out its biggest product reveals. This could indicate that Apple is shifting toward a strategy of separate, category-specific announcements rather than bundling all its news into one large event.
No official details have been released yet about which specific products will be presented. It should be noted that this report is based on Gurman's forecast, drawn from his track record of anticipating Apple announcements, and the company itself has not officially confirmed the event.
