YOLOLIVYoloBox Ultra, The Ultimate Horizontal/Vertical NDI Live Streaming Equipment, Switcher Monitor Encoder Recorder, for Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Tiktok, RTMPSClimatePartner certified

The YoloBox ultra is a compact live streaming tablet-like equipment with 4 HDMI inputs, 2 USB A inputs, 1 USB-C input, another USB-C port for power, a LAN port, a headphone jack, a microphone in and a line-in.Why I bought the device:I do sports streaming and taking a powerful laptop, power station, docking station and a bunch of capture cards felt super uncomfortable transporting the items and setting up the whole framework felt like a nightmare and was time-consuming. It also requires a power supply to be provided wherever the stream is set up. YoloBox Ultra is a lightweight tablet that eliminates the need for a capture card and power supply by making it super-easy to set up a multi-camera live streaming wherever you want, very quickly. It offers 95% of the features that software like OBS provides. I carry a 40000 mAh power bank that can power the YoloBox Ultra beyond the 6-hour battery life that the device itself provides, with which, I have streamed games for up to 14 hours continuously without the need of a power supply.Stability of the stream: The stream feels super-smooth and the interface is very user-friendly. We have the option to choose the encoding settings, bit rate and fps of the stream output along with the recording output. I have heard very positive feedback about our stream's viewing experience from multiple clients of ours till now.Stand-out features: Network bonding, multi-camera replays, ISO recording, and so on are some of the standout features I have felt.Drawbacks: I have felt some minor drawbacks like the lack of stinger transitions between video sources, lack of macro automation capabilities, limiting the number of local videos to only 5, lack of folder structure and so on. But these are minor drawbacks for such a portable device. Also, the YoloLiv team is super responsive towards their customers and when we report any problem or possible enhancement, they take our feedback seriously and deliver on it!One major issue is the pricing. I live in India and the YoloLiv team isn't working on regional-specific pricing. I feel that the Ultra being sold for $1500 may feel affordable for someone from the USA. But here in India, it is hyper-expensive.Overall verdict: Extremely satisfied. 10 out of 10!

We've recently started using the Yolobox Ultra at our church and it's been a game-changer for our service recordings. As a church just starting to record our services, simplicity was a key factor for us. The Yolobox Ultra delivers on that front, offering a user-friendly interface that even those without much technical expertise can navigate with ease.The touchscreen interface makes controlling the stream a breeze. You can easily switch between multiple video sources, control audio levels, and even add graphics or lower thirds to the stream. This has added a level of professionalism to our streams that we didn't have before.Additionally, the portability of the Yolobox Ultra cannot be overstated. Its compact design means we can easily set it up wherever we need to, whether that's in our main worship area, a smaller meeting room, or even outside for special events.The Yolobox Ultra is proving to be an invaluable tool for our church. Its combination of user-friendly operation, versatile features, and portability makes it the perfect solution for our recording needs. We would highly recommend it to any church looking to simplify their recording/live-streaming process and enhance their service broadcasts.

I finally upgraded from the Yolobox pro to the ultra and so happy I did. The pro was an amazing tool in itself and upgrading to the ultra was such a welcomed choice. Definitely noticeably faster than the pro and the extra HDMI input simply expanded my production capabilities. I love the new UI when it comes to setting up my various sources. One big upgrade that I really appreciate is if you unplug one of your HDMI sources it immediately detect the input and you are ready to go versus the pro where the preview thumbnails under the source would show a black box, even though selecting the source would work. some of the things that they don't advertise for Yolobox that are very useful features are the Yolocast platform which allows you to pull in all your Yolocast and third-party overlays into one place and be able to use them simultaneously on your Yolobox! With this system, I've been able to create a simple solution for live streaming that I can set up and breakdown within an hour and literally not have to plug anything in (everything battery powered). My clients really appreciate the small footprint of our set up and the very low maintenance approach just need wifi and we are off to the races.
