Apple’s ‘Ultra’ smart home robot might have to wait until 2028

Apple's rumored smart home robot, codenamed J595 and potentially called the 'HomeView Ultra', has been delayed until 2024 or as late as 2028 due to unfinished software. The device's hardware has been finished for around two years, but the software team has pushed to delay the launch and simplify the product's capabilities. The robot is expected to have a 9-inch display, a swiveling robotic arm, cameras, and sensors, and may cost over $1,000.
