Just a little over a year ago, we told you about a Kickstarter project that said it was the world’s smallest Bluetooth earbuds in the market. Well, we have another crowd-sourced device and it can now lay claim to that title. The Dot is now the world’s smallest Bluetooth headset available (or soon to be available) and it claims that the sound quality is just as good, and maybe even better, than the headsets that are in the market today.
The Dot is made up of one tiny earbud that already includes a single multi-function button. You will be able to answer and end a call with just a simple tap on the button. The LED indicator light is the one that confirms it is set up with your smartphone, and it doesn’t even need an app to do so. At 3.5 grams, it is the lightest and tiniest, almost half the weight of the existing Bluetooth buds in the market today. You can connect the Dot to up to 8 various devices, including Android smartphones of course.
Despite the fact that it is tiny, the makers say that they use the latest CVC audio enhancement technology and ambient noise filtering to get “crystal clear” sound when you’re taking or making calls either through your phone or through Skype, Viber, etc. It also has an aluminum protective case that is also a wireless charger for your earbuds. You just need 30 minutes to fully charge the Dot and it can be charged up to 6x. You’ll be able to enjoy 1 hour of music and 1 hour of calls from a fully-charged device.
The Dot has more than reached its target of $30,000 and it still has 28 days to go in its campaign. The suggested retail price is $99, but if you back them up in their Kickstarter project, you only get to pay $59.

This is a crowdfunded project, and as such may not deliver what its creators initially promise. Most crowdfunding sites, like Kickstarter and Indiegogo, have policies about what happens to your money if the project fails to deliver on its goals, but choosing to back a project is inevitably a risk. Android Community’s reporting on crowdfunded projects should in no way be seen as an endorsement, unless specifically stated, and we recommend closely examining the terms and conditions to understand your individual rights as a backer before making a pledge.
