HomeView's Wall Model: Pay More, Get Less Speaker
MacRumors • • technology
Key Points:
- Apple offers two versions of the HomeView smart display: a wall-mounted model and a standalone speaker base model, both priced at $299 with no discount for the base-free version.
- Wall mounting is more expensive due to the need for additional hardware, with mounting options starting at $60 and going up to $130 for a Power over Ethernet (PoE) wired mount, which is not yet available.
- The wall-mounted HomeView is limited to silver and space gray colors, while the speaker base model also comes in starlight and rose pink.
- Both models feature built-in speakers, but the speaker base version includes a down-firing woofer and passive radiators, offering potentially better sound quality compared to the wall-mounted version.
- The HomeView is available for pre-order now and will officially launch on November 13.
