Bowers & Wilkins has released its upgraded 2021 version of the popular Zeppelin speaker. The Zeppelin wireless speaker first launched as an iPod dock and has since grown in such popularity that it is one of the most recognizable speakers on the market.
This year's reimagination stays true to the Zeppelin's iconic oval shape but now comes in a light and dark gray color. It also has an ambient lighting option that projects light around the metal pedestal - creating a halo light effect. The Zeppelin comes complete with dedicated right and left speakers, ensuring the sound quality is absolute. Moreover, the new Zeppelin comes equipped with a built-in Alexa system that lets users change a song using Alexa's voice assisting technology.
