Divoom Pixoo 64 Review: Great Hardware, Bad Software
The Pixoo 64 is a great looking piece of hardware that I wanted to like. But after getting it into the studio and putting it through its paces, the verdict is in, the software is a mess. Between the data hungry mobile app and "real-time" counters that lag behind by many hours, it is hard to justify the $159.99 price tag.
In this video, I am looking at the technical failures that make this more of a toy than a tool for creators. I’ll show you why the API integration is broken and why I’m pointing my audience toward open-source alternatives like the Ulanzi TC001 instead.
