Apple’s October 13, 2026 announcement priced both the tabletop HomeView and HomeView Wall Mounted at ₹39,900 each in India. The company announced pre-orders from October 13 and availability beginning November 13. That distinction matters for prospective buyers: an announcement or pre-order window is not evidence that a device has already been delivered or is immediately available in a nearby store.

What is included—and what depends on other devices
HomeView combines entertainment, communication and smart-home controls. The two form factors have the same announced India device price, but that does not mean the complete installation cost is identical. Purpose-built wall mounts are separate accessories. Some content or services may require subscriptions, and availability differs by app and region.
Apple says personal-context requests require a paired Apple Intelligence-enabled iPhone or iPad, current software, Siri AI switched on and a supported language. This is a narrower condition than ordinary device setup. Owning any iPhone should not be presented as enough to enable every personalised AI function. English-language support in India also does not establish Hindi or Bengali support for these features.
Launch limitations to check before ordering
The announcement describes Siri AI as beta in HomeView software 27.2. Some features may not be offered in every region or language, and certain server-based AI functions have daily usage limits. A promised future feature or expanded access should not be treated as an unlimited service included with the device today.
CapKet checked Apple’s India announcement and product page; it did not test checkout acceptance, delivery slots, retail inventory or the hardware. Readers should verify their paired device, required software, mounting arrangement and subscriptions before committing to a purchase. November 13 is the announced availability date, not a delivery guarantee for every order.
