WiiM Wake-up Light at Vinyl Sound Toronto Canada

The WiiM Wake-up Light is a smart bedside speaker, sunrise alarm clock, and full-color reading lamp from WiiM (Shenzhen, China), available at Vinyl Sound in Toronto, Canada. Combining built-in Amazon Alexa voice control, dual-band Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.0 wireless streaming, and a full-color RGB light system with 13 preset modes, the Wake-up Light is designed to replace your bedside alarm clock, sound machine, and reading lamp with a single app-controlled device that integrates into the broader WiiM Home multi-room audio ecosystem alongside the WiiM Mini, WiiM Pro, and WiiM Pro Plus.

Sunrise Alarm and Sleep Routine Automation

The WiiM Wake-up Light simulates the natural circadian rhythm by gradually increasing light brightness and color temperature to mimic a sunrise in the minutes before your chosen alarm time, and can be programmed to reverse the process at bedtime by fading light through sunset colors while soothing sounds or a streaming playlist play at decreasing volume. Routines are built in the WiiM Light app for iOS and Android, which allows you to assign specific streaming services, sleep sounds, light colors, alarm times, and fade durations to each routine. The built-in microphone array activates Amazon Alexa for hands-free voice control of light settings, alarms, smart home routines, and music playback without requiring a separate Echo device.

Multi-Room Streaming and Music Services

The WiiM Wake-up Light connects to your home Wi-Fi network and streams directly from Amazon Music, Spotify via Spotify Connect, and TIDAL, with Pandora also supported via the WiiM Light app. When grouped with other WiiM devices in the WiiM Home app, the Wake-up Light participates in synchronized multi-room playback across your home. Bluetooth 5.0 is available as an alternative streaming input for direct device pairing. The unit measures 7-1/8 inches wide by 6-9/16 inches high by 3-9/16 inches deep and weighs 17.15 oz, and includes an AC adapter with a 47-inch DC output cord.
