The latest models in the well-reviewed Zipp range also boast AirPlay 2 support and a 12-hour battery life.

Another IFA, another smart speaker announcement...

For years, Libratone’s Zipp wireless speakers have impressed not only with their full-bodied and entertaining 360-degree sound, but also their distinct clothed designs. So we can only hope the addition of new features (Amazon’s Alexa voice control, for one) in the new Zipp 2 (£279) and Zipp Mini 2 (£229) continue to take the range in the right direction.
