Apple's smart home hub was supposed to launch in March, with the hardware already completed last year. A reliable source has now provided more details about the production and launch plans, including information about the price.

This is a whole new level of mockery. Can the Xiaomi 17 beat an iPhone 17 in a battery life test with an additional 5,000mAh power bank? In theory, Apple’s new entry-level flagship should have the advantage, but Xiaomi’s battery life comparison suggests otherwise.
