More firmware updates are coming from YoloLiv! This ever expanding, all-in-one video streaming, mixing, and streaming solution is a perfect portable device for those looking for ease of use, and great results.
Videoguys has also done a great video comparing the YoloBox OG and the YoloBox Pro. For starters, YoloBox Pro has as an additional HDMI input, which makes it perfect for those looking to bring in a third camera for their production.
It also still features a USB camera input (which can also be used to record to a USB storage device), but on the YoloBox Pro this is a USB 3.0 port, while the YoloBox features a USB 2.0 port. YoloBox Pro also includes two USB-C ports, one for charging and one for use as a standard USB-C. YoloBox only features one of these ports, so you can't use it for a USB-C if you are charging the unit at the same time. Podcasters and audio professionals will also love the YoloBox Pro, because it has expanded audio mixing capabilities.
YoloBox Pro still has the 3.5 mm line in audio jack that the original YoloBox has, but now it also comes equipped with an additional 3.5 mm mic in jack. On top of additional inputs, the YoloBox Pro will also provide a faster and smoother experience, because it's CPU gives it added power. The YoloBox Pro packs a QualComm 660 CPU while the YoloBox features a QualComm 625 CPU.
