A week with HomeView
Jennifer Tuohy, The Verge’s senior smart home reviewer, says she has tested every smart display made by Amazon and Google. For the past week, she has been testing Apple’s first smart display, the $299 HomeView.
Tuohy used both the tabletop and wall-mounted versions around her home, including in the kitchen, bedroom, office and living room. She also mounted a unit in the entryway as a smart home control panel.
Testing its everyday features
During the week, Tuohy cooked with the device, managed her smart home and took calls on it. She also tried its new Siri AI capabilities. Her family tested HomeView as well. Tuohy said her tech-averse husband liked it, while her teenage daughter was less enthusiastic.
