Everything about Wiim Sound Lite

[Burnside]

Since when did 2.5kg become "Handy for carrying around and can fit in any type of bag"?

The specs appear to be copied from the WiiM Sound spec sheet. How does one remove a small screen, add a battery and keep the weight identical to the WiiM Sound?

Personally wouldn't trust that info - looks cobbled together from another product description tbh

Found this whilst searching for any information about the lite version, looks like it will be battery powered and cost £229

Nice. If this is correct it could the right one for complementing my 2.1 system and bring 5(4).1 audio from HDMI-connected TVs. I bought and tested two WiiM Sound speakers and they work pretty well for movies with 5.1 sound and spatial music from Apple Music. Will return them because of high price, inconvenient screen and ultrasensitive touchpanel making it almost impossible to turn off the speakers.

Yeah, too good to be true, unfortunately.
