Apple Marketing maestro Phil Schiller thinks he knows what’s missing from all those fancy “smart home hubs” like the Amazon Echo, Google home and so on: a screen. According to an interview with Gadgets 360, Schiller said while the voice tech-alone approach isfine, he thinks some kind of visual component would be more helpful, especially when asking about things like direction and so on.
Schiller was asked about the quickly growing smart home trend – and why Apple hasn’t jumped into the space already. Of course, Schiller didn’t spill any juicy details per Apple’s legendary privacy protocols, but analysts think Apple could debut a Siri-powered home hub as soon as next month at its WWDC developer’s conference. And we’ll bet it has a screen on it. Story:
