Apple tipped to enter the smart home security camera market

We might see an Apple smart home security camera market in 2026. At least, that is what analyst Ming-Chi Kuo is reporting. He wrote in a post saying the company targets "annual shipments in the tens of millions." Chinese tech company GoerTek will supposedly be the exclusive assembly supplier.

Kuo said the smart home camera would integrate with other Apple hardware products wirelessly and be part of a larger smart home ecosystem centred around Apple's HomeKit platform. He suggested you can see what's being recorded via the Apple TV or through an iPhone, Apple Watch, and other devices that can interact with the camera. Apple has not made a public statement about the arrival of this camera, but Kuo has a track record of breaking these product launches, so it might be worth keeping an eye on.
