Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo says that Apple’s expected new Home Hub device has been delayed until after WWDC in June 2025.

Variously called a Home Hub or a HomePod with a screen, this new device is expected to be a smart home controller that might in fact resemble an iPad. Whatever it’s ultimately called, code references to what appear to be it were found in February 2024, and a display manufacturer was reportedly selected in January 2025.
One of the few consistent predictions about the device is that it is forever six months away, and one recent report claimed it would now launch in late 2025. Now Ming-Chi Kuo‘s new claim on Twitter backs that up, and says the delay is because of continuing problems with software development.
