Apple is continuing to make moves in the connected home space with its rumored HomeView lineup, but early details suggest the upcoming hardware may bring additional costs for prospective buyers.

According to a report from Android Headlines, customers opting for the wall-mounted model of the Apple HomeView might have to pay extra for essential accessories needed for its setup. While full hardware details remain under wraps, requiring users to purchase necessary add-ons separately could raise the total cost of ownership.

Selling mounts or vital setup components as standalone purchases is not entirely unprecedented, yet it often draws criticism when consumers expect an all-in-one package out of the box. How Apple will package and position these accessories alongside the device remains to be seen.
