The Divoom Tiivoo-2 looks like a tiny television, but OSReviews’ long walkthrough shows how many different jobs sit behind that screen. It plays Bluetooth music, receives FM radio, displays personal photos and offers small games controlled either on the device or from a phone. Its appeal comes from switching between those activities on a compact desk object.
The review is positive about the sound and customization, with useful reservations about screen reflections, the very small viewing area and inconsistent speeds in some games. This article follows the January 2025 recording, including its practical demonstrations and software behavior.
The mini-TV design is small enough to move around
OSReviews first compares the size with familiar desk gadgets and a phone. The Tiivoo-2 takes up less space than the Ditoo shown alongside it, with a clear-looking outer shell, front controls and soft feet underneath. The decorative circuitry effect is part of the styling; the subtle RGB glow sits around the navigation control rather than lighting the whole enclosure.
On the back are an extendable antenna, USB-C power connection, microSD slot and passive radiator. The internal battery lets the unit move away from a charger, while collapsing the antenna makes it easier to put into a bag. Those details matter if you want a speaker that can move from a desk to another room.
Its television appearance should not obscure what the broadcast function actually does: this is an FM radio. OSReviews explicitly notes that it does not receive AM. The visual design, radio reception and music playback are related parts of the experience, but they are different functions.
The LCD can show both retro clock faces and ordinary photos
The screen is an IPS LCD rather than the literal pixel grid used by the Ditoo in the comparison. Its clock faces can imitate chunky pixels, flip clocks, analog dials or glowing tubes through software. That distinction becomes particularly useful later, when OSReviews opens the photo album and the display shows more detail than the deliberately blocky artwork suggests.
View angles are reasonable in the reviewer’s indoor use, although the screen can catch glare. Brightness can be reduced for a darker room, and the settings include time, units, lock-screen behavior and scheduled power. A scheduled off period gives a bedside user a way to avoid leaving the display active all night.
Navigation happens through the front controls, not a touchscreen. OSReviews cycles through faces, enters the main carousel and uses the back key to return. The volume control remains available across the interface, so changing a widget does not hide the everyday audio adjustment.
Bluetooth audio is the core speaker experience
The music menu offers Bluetooth, memory-card playback and USB audio. OSReviews pairs a phone and plays a sample, then describes the sound as stronger and fuller than he expects from such a small device. His assessment is that it can comfortably serve a desk, bedroom or similarly small listening area.
He also finds casual video playback responsive in his setup and considers the sound broadly comparable with the larger Ditoo and another Divoom speaker shown in the review. These are his listening impressions, not measured loudness or latency benchmarks. The useful takeaway is that the novelty screen does not replace the product’s basic role as a personal speaker.
FM scanning makes the antenna more than decoration
For radio, OSReviews describes finding a good selection of nearby music and news stations, including in his more rural location. The interface provides search, a station list and favorites. Extend the antenna, scan for local stations, then save the ones you expect to return to instead of repeating the search every time.
Reception depends on the local stations and where the speaker sits, so his result is most useful as evidence that the radio function was genuinely used. It adds a listening option that does not need a phone to supply music or an internet stream.
Use the small screen for a personal photo album
The photo demonstration changes the character of the device. A photographic image appears on the LCD, rather than a pixel-art face. The screen remains tiny beside a modern phone, but it can act as a personal accent on a desk or a gift preloaded with familiar people and pets.
Later in the app tour, OSReviews shows the album upload route to the device’s internal memory. That is the relevant workflow for personalization: choose your own images, send them from the app and leave them available locally. The review does not establish that every music-card file is also an album source.
Pomodoro sessions and games use the controls in different ways
The Pomodoro function lets you arrange work intervals and breaks. In the app, different tasks can be associated with different animations: the reviewer gives reading and working as examples. This makes the screen a visible cue for the current activity, rather than merely a clock showing that time is passing.
The game tour is more extensive than a menu listing. OSReviews tries brick breaking, a bird-and-obstacles game, Snake and a racing game, among other small diversions. The direction control suits moving a paddle or steering; the button-driven bird game asks for repeated presses to keep the character above obstacles.
The criticism is specific: some animations look sluggish or uneven, while Snake can move faster than the reviewer would prefer. He still finds the games playable, but this is a collection of casual extras rather than a polished substitute for a dedicated handheld console.
Other playful tools include a random die, a question-and-answer fortune toy and a spinning selection wheel. They offer quick interactions or a way to supply a random result for a board game, without requiring the longer attention of an arcade-style game.
White-noise mixing and utilities give it quieter roles
The utility tour includes countdown and elapsed-time tools, a two-player scoreboard, a sound-level display and a short memo recorder. The scoreboard is a manual tally; the recorder captures a message for playback through the speaker. The sound-level function is shown as a convenience feature, without a calibrated accuracy comparison.
For winding down, the white-noise interface offers nature and mechanical sounds, including frogs, fan noise and fire. OSReviews adjusts individual levels and the playback duration. Mixing sounds gives you more choice than selecting a single preset: you can keep one element prominent and turn another into a quieter background.
The app adds live drawing and a second way to play
The Divoom app connects to this model through Bluetooth. OSReviews makes clear that the Tiivoo-2 has no built-in Wi-Fi. It can play locally stored content on its own, while app transfers and phone-linked functions depend on the appropriate connection.
In Design, he draws on a canvas and watches the strokes appear on the speaker. The editor also exposes color choices and animation steps. This is a concrete route to creating something personal: start with a few strokes, check how they look on the physical screen and build from there.
The phone can also become a game controller. OSReviews opens a game, holds the phone horizontally and uses the on-screen controls while the Tiivoo-2 acts as the display. That changes where your hands sit and allows play from a little farther away, while retaining the same small game screen.
Community art and stored faces keep the screen personal
The remaining app tour shows saved clock faces, startup and status-display settings, and the community gallery. OSReviews sends existing artwork, saves examples and searches for a specific theme. That gives owners two useful routes: edit their own work or find a community design that already fits their interests.
Saved faces and images can remain on the device when the phone disconnects. Phone-notification icons are different: the reviewer describes them as a function of remaining paired. He also explores pixel coloring, a guided way to fill a design rather than begin from a blank canvas.
Who gets the most from this little TV-shaped speaker?
The Tiivoo-2 suits someone who will enjoy more than its appearance: listening to local FM, changing a photo album, trying a game and occasionally drawing something for the screen. OSReviews likes the combination of competent small-speaker audio and these playful interactions.
His reservations remain relevant to that choice: the screen is small and reflective, games vary in smoothness, and there is no Wi-Fi for independent connected features. He also considers the original asking price high and the product more appealing with a discount. Compare today’s offer with the functions you will actually use, rather than treating every listed extra as a reason to buy.
