Investing.com – According to Bloomberg, citing sources, Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) has delayed the release of its smart home display screen to around September due to ongoing delays in developing an upgraded version of Siri, the digital assistant.

Sources revealed that this internally coded device, J490, was originally scheduled for release in spring 2025, but multiple delays occurred as Apple continues to work on completing the new version of Siri (the core component of the product’s interface).

Apple initially planned to ship the display this month, expecting the upgraded Siri to be ready by then. However, further delays in the voice assistant forced the company to postpone the release again, now targeting September, when Siri is expected to be fully developed.

Sources said the hardware for the smart display has been completed for several months, but Apple has delayed the release until the software is ready. These individuals requested anonymity to discuss private plans.
