• Initial rumors suggested Apple would launch a HomePod with a 6-7-inch display in March 2025.
• The A18-powered product may have been delayed till after WWDC25 due to software development challenges.
• The display-equipped HomePod will likely act as a smart home hub and support Apple Intelligence features.

For months, we’ve been reading rumors about a HomePod with a 6-7-inch display. Apple is expected to launch a tablet-like device powered by the iPhone 16‘s A18 chipset that acts as a smart home hub. While previous leaks pointed to a March 2025 reveal, a fresh report suggests Apple may not release the HomePod with a display before WWDC25.

According to reputable analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple will likely launch the HomePod with a display during the third quarter of 2025. The potential timeline push is reportedly due to software development challenges rather than faulty hardware. The company appears to be developing a specialized interface that revolves around smart home functions. Thanks to the bundled A18 chip, the reimagined HomePod may also support Apple Intelligence and other demanding features.
