&lt;p&gt;Benjamin and Chance debate the curious report from Bloomberg about what the upcoming Apple smart display will look like, and how it will work. Ming-Chi Kuo also says Apple is working on a new smart home camera. iOS 18.2 beta 3 changes the narrative about the Camera Control, and the rumored ‘iPhone 17 Slim’ may not be so slim after all.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://9to5mac.com/join"&gt;And in Happy Hour Plus&lt;/a&gt;, Benjamin talks about getting a car for the first time … and an iPhone 16 Plus. Subscribe at &lt;a href="http://9to5mac.com/join"&gt;9to5mac.com/join&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
