'I cannot imagine paying thousands of dollars to watch Justin Bieber sound a mess and walk around in a hoodie and glasses. This is insulting to his fans,' fumed one.
Others wrote: 'I hate the outfit sucks band and the low rent hip hop,' and: 'Justin Bieber got paid 10 million just to walk around this damn stage??'
'That's what happens when you sell your catalog and you're only left with your last album that nobody knows,' theorized another viewer.
Another saw a 'night and day difference' between his low-key set and the high-energy extravaganza offered up by Sabrina Carpenter the previous night.
'Sorry biebs but it snot giving,' one fan said gently, while another reacted more scathingly: 'justin rlly up there headlining coachella w/ just a mic & his macbook??'
He began the set with his song 2025 song All I Can Take, which the Canadian pop act performed amid psychedelically flickering blue and white lights.
He then served up a rendition of his defiant 2025 number Speed Demon, which took a derisive attitude to the public speculation about his well-being.
In an insistence that his musical output should speak for itself, he crooned: 'They try to say I’m out of my mind, but now they singing every line.'
During an interlude, he vaunted the 'beautiful faces in the audience tonight,' and sweetly asked those watching the livestream: 'How you guys doing at home?'
He then offered fans the opportunity to 'help me with the songs tonight' by picking their 'favorites' and posting them in the stream's rolling comments.
The eerie set was filled with smoke, with a sloping pearl grey topography that made him look as though he were walking across another planet.
Bieber delivered renditions of his songs First Place and Go Baby, both of which are loving tributes to his wife Hailey Bieber, who has been seen dashing about Coachella with her gal pal Kendall Jenner in the run-up to his show.
Among the other new songs he performed were Walking Away, rumored to be addressing the divorce rumors between him and Hailey, his song Petting Zoo, which some fans interpreted as being about their couple's quarrels, and another number of his called I Do, an apparent affirmation of their commitment.
He gave a crowd-pleasing performance of Stay - his 2021 smash single with - which was apparently a viewer request from the comments.
Bieber transitioned from there to an acoustic run of lesser-known material such as his 2020 love song Come Around Me about intimacy with Hailey.

After the acoustic segment, he threw a bone of fan service to the crowd by performing a medley of his old hits.
Standing at his laptop, he threw on some videos of his beloved songs and sang along to them, with selections including Baby, Favorite Girl, Beauty and a Beat, Never Say Never, Confident, All That Matters.
He then went back the old YouTube singing videos he had recorded as a child before he was famous, leading to his discovery by Usher and Scooter Braun.
One went back '19 years,' he noted, and showed Bieber as a child covering the 2006 song Ne-Yo - as the adult Bieber stood onstage at Coachella singing along.
Bieber then offered the crowd another of his classics, the 2015 song Sorry, and then his successful collaboration with Skrillex, Where Are U Now.
He made a show of falling down a rabbit hole of his old embarrassing YouTube videos, such as old footage of him walking into a glass door, falling through a stage and yelling at a paparazzo he accused of trying to 'provoke' him.
Then he was back to his newer, comparatively obscure material, crooning Yukon - a tip of the hat to the GMC Yukon, the car Hailey drove when they were dating.
He then sang another paean to his wife called Devotion, a collaboration with Dijon, whom he brought onstage for a duet that ended in a heartwarming embrace.
