The Divoom Ditoo Pro wins Alex over as a desk companion with a personality of its own. He opens with a pair of blinking pixel eyes he added himself, then explores the packaging, artwork library and sound. This review by Alex Blogoodf also keeps the less charming details in view: charging expectations, a busy app and concern about display flicker.
It is a useful perspective if you want a Bluetooth speaker whose appearance is part of daily use. Alex is positive about the combination of music and pixel art, while seeing it primarily as something to keep on an indoor desk. Divoom provided the product for review; his description states that there was no paid promotion.
A pair of custom eyes gives the desk a character
The opening eye animation is Alex's own addition, inspired by the look of the EMO robot. It gives an immediate example of what customization means here: the speaker can display a character he wants to see, rather than only the image it arrived with.
The compact body resembles a CRT monitor above a miniature keyboard. Its 16 × 16 LED grid suits bold faces and simple animations, while the mechanical-style keys add a physical interaction that Alex enjoys. He describes the clicks and feel as part of the attraction.
The unboxing contributes to that first impression. A capsule-like case protects the unit, with films over the body, a multilingual manual, stickers and a braided USB-A-to-USB-C cable. Alex considers the presentation good enough for a gift. He also locates the rear power button beneath its rubber cover before switching the speaker on.
The artwork library is inviting, with a learning curve
The Divoom app offers community-made animations that Alex enjoys browsing. A design can be chosen to match the desk, and new work from other users gives him more possibilities than a fixed set of factory images.
Making an original design is the next step when browsing does not produce the result he wants. His opening eyes are the concrete example: he could not find the exact expression he was looking for, so he created it and notes that designs can be shared with other people.
The same app is also one of his criticisms. He finds it powerful and feature-rich, but less approachable at first than its playful appearance might suggest. The library is an easy reason to get interested; learning where everything lives takes more patience.
His own music provides a personal sound sample
Alex is pleasantly surprised by the sound for a device of this size. He describes a satisfying amount of bass and a balanced overall presentation for a desk or small room. He then plays a short extract of his own track rather than relying only on a spoken description.
That sample is an opportunity to hear his recording and follow his reaction. His conclusion is about enjoyable music close to the listener, alongside the display and design. He does not present a measured comparison against a premium audio system.
The wider functions include a clock, alarms, timers, weather information, phone notifications and simple games. Alex mentions those as additions to the main combination of sound and artwork; the video does not turn each one into a detailed tutorial.
The practical limits matter as much as the charm
Battery expectations affect how Alex sees the product. He quotes roughly seven to eight hours of use and expects it will make more sense plugged in at the desk most of the time. His concern is the extra device to remember to charge, rather than treating the speaker as an effortless all-day portable companion.
He also raises a display-flicker concern for viewers who already find flickering screens uncomfortable. The video does not include frequency measurements, so this remains his caution rather than a quantified display test. He advises keeping the device away from wet use as well, including rain and bathroom settings.
The app's learning curve completes that list of compromises. A large collection of tools can be appealing, but finding and configuring them is part of the work of owning it. If your main aim is to put a few favorite animations on the desk and play music, you do not need to begin by enabling every extra.
Alex's final recommendation is still enthusiastic for someone who likes retro design and pixel art. He values the atmosphere it adds to his workspace. That is the strongest reason to consider it here: the speaker, artwork and tactile object make a combination he wants to look at and use.
