Morgan Stanley: Apple Could Earn $133 Billion a Year From Humanoid Robots by 2040 — As Big as Today’s App Store
Apple’s next multi‑billion‑dollar business may not live on a screen. A new Morgan Stanley research note making the rounds today projects that Apple could generate roughly $130–$133 billion in annual revenue from humanoid and home robotics by 2040, putting the category on par with the scale of today’s App Store and ahead of several existing hardware lines. The report—widely cited across financial and tech media—also sketches a likely first step: a tabletop, motorized home hub expected as early as 2027, paving the way for more capable robots later in the 2030s.
