• An all-new Apple smart home camera with tight ecosystem ties could enter mass production in 2026.
• The device will presumably work with Apple HomeKit, which already supports third-party smart cameras.
• The company could also be planning a new AirPods model with boosted health perks for the same year.

Apple has gradually been widening its product range. What started as a company for desktop computers now also sells flagship phones, tablets, smartwatches, true wireless earbuds, and more. However, its ambitions aren’t limited to just that. According to a fresh report, Apple is working on a smart home camera that could potentially rival Google Nest Cams and the like.

Reputable analyst Ming-Chi Kuo believes that an Apple smart home camera and AirPods with more advanced health features will enter mass production in 2026. Based on the report, the upcoming camera will offer deep integrations into Apple Intelligence and Siri, along with other tight ecosystem ties.
