Divoom AstroToo Bluetooth speaker features a four-inch display, Wi-Fi connectivity, and 20-watt audio output

The Divoom AstroToo is a retro-futuristic desktop Bluetooth speaker featuring a 4-inch square IPS LCD display, representing a significant hardware upgrade over the company's previous Ditoo and Mini 2 models. Equipped with a 20W near-field speaker system and passive radiators, the AstroToo delivers improved audio volume and bass response compared to its predecessors. A key addition to this model is dual-band Wi-Fi connectivity, enabling the device to operate as a standalone desktop assistant that can independently fetch weather data, display social media counters, and sync with Google or Microsoft calendars without requiring a constant Bluetooth connection to a smartphone. The speaker features mechanical keys with customizable RGB backlighting and a metal jog dial for navigation. Its 128MB of internal storage holds preloaded watch faces, user-uploaded photos, and several offline mini-games, including a fishing simulator. Users can customize the display's widgets and layout through the companion Divoom app, which also supports AI-assisted watch face generation. While the AstroToo lacks an analog 3.5mm headphone jack and water resistance, it offers versatile playback options via Bluetooth 6.0, a microSD card slot, and USB-C audio input, alongside a six-hour battery life.
