WiiM’s New Voice Remote 2 Puts Alexa in the Palm of Your Hand

With WiiM’s continuing quest to improve the music listening experience, the upgraded Voice Remote 2 improves control for WiiM devices.

WiiM Voice Remote 2 with components lifestyle

If you always use your phone to control your music streaming, wireless speakers, and other components, and are happy with that, a physical remote control might not add much value in 2025. The reality is control apps don’t always do what we ask of them and firmware updates have been known (looking at you Sonos and Samsung) to brick certain features. Your dog may have buried it in the couch’s dark abyss—but let’s be honest, you can’t live without that remote. The newly released WiiM Voice Remote 2 brings smart upgrades that make it a key piece of the company’s expanding streaming lineup.

Voice Remote 2

Designed to seamlessly pair with WiiM’s streamers and amplifiers, the WiiM Voice Remote 2 expands control convenience across a WiiM-based whole-home audio setup. With a dedicated Push-to-Talk button, users can instantly access voice control—no extra Alexa device needed. Its four programmable preset buttons launch your favorite playlists, inputs, or settings with a single tap.

    I will never give up on physical remotes. Apps crash far too often and there’s something comforting about using one. Even the cheap ones made of plastic.
