I gave this a try when a lightning deal came along having seen it in many “cute” room setups. First and foremost, I do not understand the hype, at all. The design is beautiful, the retro look is flawless and the packaging made for such an enjoyable opening experience, however, the function of the product itself is well, a little useless.
Firstly, the interface is the worst. Even following the instructions I struggled to grasp the basics of the controls and features (I am by no means a Luddite). This made for annoying navigating especially when it automatically connects to your phone always, so unless you manually go into your phone settings and disconnect every time, your phone will immediately ring via the speakers. Secondly, the speakers aren’t even that great quality and the battery life is so poor that it won’t even last the night without being on charge which is such a shame because its only redeeming feature is the beautiful clock display. Thirdly, the app which needs to be used with it is glitchy and unintuitive (and requires you to make an account for no good reason besides marketing), at a glance it appears you can customise everything but the actual use of the pixel art is severely limited. Finally, the nail in the coffin for me, was when my neighbours were somehow able to connect to the speaker via bluetooth (from quite a distance) and scare the living daylights out of me by playing music from their phone - this is of course because of being unable to turn the bluetooth off.
Overall, the design is lovely but the function is completely pointless besides that of a glorified clock, and even then the battery doesn’t last. I could understand paying up-to £20 for something like this but the current price is just not worth it, and I really gave it a good two-week try.

This speaker has done nothing but amaze me and my family! The sound quality is fantastic and it has so many features packed into one little speaker! The app works well and adds even more features to play around with. A lot of it is customisable which is another great feature so your speaker can feel more personal. Definitely worth buying!

This is a lovely alarm clock that can be customised to whatever pixel art you like on the screen. My 10 year old loves to play with this and gets hours of fun creating different pixel images and then sharing them with her cousin who also has one abroad.
The clock has a large bright display and the sound comes out clearly. The app is easy to download with the QR code and it is easy to navigate when on it.
There are lots of set images or you can choose to create your own image either with or without text. The art has many different styles that it can be shared on the screen eg. Moving sideways for longer text or still for shorter words.

I LOVE this pixel retro speaker so much! It is the cutest thing ever (and the packaging is adorable too!) and has so many features! The speaker is also AMAZING quality despite it being a tiny device! It can also get super loud or quiet so the range is very convenient. The pixel art options are endless on the app ( amazing app btw works seamlessly). Seriously, there is literally a pixel art design for anything. I wanted Snoopy the dog from Peanuts to appear on the speaker, it did in seconds( see attached image for a picture of it!). The customization options are also literally endless since you can design your own pixel art if you want to. It is so nice because I have it on my desk and it literally brightens my day to see these cute animations. Speaking of brightness, this thing can get bright! The brightness range is incredible and super adjustable. Plus there is a planner feature where you can map out your day according to different animations that will be displayed! I personally use the stopwatch feature a lot for practice tests and it looks so cute, literally makes me so happy. And during breaks, you can be assured that the music quality is going to be perfect. I love the micro SD card feature for playing music because I don't always have my phone on Bluetooth ( to limit distractions) and I can still listen to my favorite songs from anywhere including my desk. When I do use Bluetooth, it never lags or skips which is great because I have had previous speakers that have done that. It is the perfect feature since it has these two ways to play music! Also, I adore the music visualizer feature. There are a few settings built-in but you can take your favorite animation (from the app), and then it will display it based off of the music beats. The charger is a USB-C which is super convenient because all of my other chargers are that too so I don't need to clutter up my space with random chargers! On the topic of charging, battery life is amazing and the charging time is much less than what is stated in the manual. It once lasted for 3 straight days without a charge. I believe the manual said it takes like 4 hours to completely charge. I tested this out and it only took a little over an hour! The games on the speaker are super fun and retro. Even though it is not the main feature, it is nice to have and I will play with it as a break sometimes.
This speaker is a must-have as it does everything anyone could ever want. It not only is a speaker but an aesthetic clock (attached an image for reference), a retro pixel game machine, a pixel art display, a planner, a stopwatch, a music visualizer, and so much more! I cannot recommend this retro pixel speaker enough, it is truly exceptional and well-made! I am very impressed and highly recommend!
