Apple Home Collection orders open for new cameras and smart accessories

Apple’s Home Collection reaches its next milestone today, Friday, November 13, as ordering begins for select smart-home accessories developed with LG Electronics and Schneider Electric.

The order window comes a month after Apple unveiled its lineup of cameras, video doorbells, smart locks, thermostats and sensors. The company has said only that select products become available to order November 13, with the first deliveries or general availability beginning in December. It has not identified the full list of accessories included in this opening wave.

Customers looking to purchase an accessory should consult Apple’s Home Collection store page for live product availability and delivery estimates. The collection includes an LG Indoor Cam starting at $199.95, a wired Video Doorbell from $249.95, an Outdoor Cam from $299.95 and a Floodlight Cam from $399.95 in the United States. Not all of those products are necessarily available to order today.

The devices are built to connect directly to Apple Home with one-tap iPhone setup, without a separate app or account. Compatible cameras support encrypted video through eligible iCloud+ subscriptions, while smart thermostats can adjust temperatures automatically using Apple Home’s Adaptive Temperature feature. The Apple Post previously explained the streamlined setup.

Apple HomeView also goes on sale today, providing a dedicated screen for checking cameras, answering doorbell alerts and controlling compatible accessories. It starts at $299 in the United States and £299 in the United Kingdom. Our HomeView guide explains what it offers, while our camera roundup covers the new security devices.

For shoppers in the United Kingdom, Apple has announced LG camera prices starting at £179.95 for Indoor Cam, £229.95 for the wired Video Doorbell, £279.95 for Outdoor Cam and £349.95 for Floodlight Cam. Product availability varies by country, and the LG Smart Deadbolt Lock is initially planned for the United States and Canada.

Some Home Collection products are expected in early 2027 rather than December. Apple has not supplied a single release date covering the entire collection, so anyone placing an order should check the displayed shipping estimate before purchasing.
