Apple HomeView Wait Times Stretch Into December for Some Tabletop Colors
Customers who missed the Apple HomeView pre-order may now wait until late November or early December for some tabletop versions. U.S. estimates vary by ZIP code and color, while the wall-mounted model remains available for launch-day delivery.
Apple began taking pre-orders for its HomeView smart home hub on Tuesday, but new orders for some tabletop versions in the U.S. are already showing delivery windows extending into late November and December.
The first pre-ordered devices are scheduled for delivery on Friday, November 13. In New York, the silver tabletop HomeView is currently estimated for November 23 to December 1, while some other locations show November 30 to December 7.
Wall-mounted model has no delays
Some tabletop colors and locations still offer launch-day delivery on November 13. Apple’s wall-mounted HomeView was not showing delays when the source article was published.
Apple TV 4K has similar estimates
Apple TV 4K delivery estimates are nearly the same as those listed for some tabletop HomeView orders: November 23 to December 1 in certain U.S. areas and November 30 to December 7 in others.
HomePod mini 2 remains available
The HomePod mini 2 is still widely available across the U.S. for launch-day delivery on Friday, October 30, in all five colors. Apple says Siri AI will not be available on the speaker until a future software update adds support.
