Hands-on: The Apple HomeView is gorgeous, costs $299, and has no App Store

The Apple HomeView finally arrives on doorsteps (and in Apple Stores) on Friday, and I think this gorgeous little smart display is about to become a common sight in homes around the world. I've been testing the HomeView ahead of its release, and I would definitely recommend it to homeowners, parents, and anyone looking for Christmas gift ideas.

From the moment I saw the HomeView up close, I've had a premonition: Apple is going to sell a million of these things. And after adding it to my own home, I'm even more confident in that prediction.

As a product reviewer, you get a sixth sense for this. The last time I felt this way about a product? Back in March, when Apple debuted the MacBook Neo, which proved to be extremely popular.

For someone like me, who lives in a one-bedroom New York City apartment and tries not to think about whether or not I'll ever be able to afford a down payment, the Apple HomeView is an awesomely unnecessary sidekick. Personally, I'd buy an iPad stand before a HomeView, but YMMV. However, for my parents, my big sister, and my better-off friends who do own their own homes, I would definitely recommend this device.

For upper-income homeowners, the HomeView is a beautiful digital butler for the modern smart abode. ) If you plan on investing in Apple's other new smart home gadgets — the new Apple TV 4K , HomePod Mini 2 , new home security cameras , and video doorbells — I'd even say the HomeView is a necessity.
