In the latest edition of his newsletter Power On Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman writes that Apple plans to release a new Homepod sometime next year.
The upcoming smart speaker, codenamed B620, is said to both sound and look like the original Homepod speaker, rather than the Homepod Mini. It will be powered by the upcoming S8 processor, which is also said to be in the upcoming Apple Watch Series 8.
There will also be an updated screen on top of the smart speaker that may have a multitouch function.
Price and exact release date are currently unclear.
