Hands on with the Android Robot Bluetooth Sound Box Speaker [Video] 3

I've got something all you Android fanatics are going to want. Mobilefun in the UK has the Android Robot Bluetooth Sound Box Speaker and I have to be honest, I wasn't expecting much considering it's only about 3 1/2 inches tall. I was pleasantly surprised. No this isn't going to take the place of your home theater system, but I guarantee you that this little guy not only looks good on your desk, nightstand, or kitchen counter, but also sounds really good. I had some friends over the other night and they saw it on my bar and asked what it was. When I showed them, they couldn't believe how good it sounded. I'm not alone because there are 40 customer reviews with an average rating of 4.8 out of 5.

It even acts as a speakerphone for your convenience. Just like any other Bluetooth device, it will pause your music while you take the call and continue when you hang up. The top of the robot will control your tracks, play/pause music, and control the volume. The rechargeable battery is rated at 4.5 hours of talk time or 10 hours of music. It comes with a stand and a USB cable for charging via the mini USB port.

You can buy it for £19.95 ($31.50) plus about £3.50 for shipping in the UK and other parts of Europe or £9.95 ($15.71) to the U.S. You can also enter coupon code PROMOCLOTH for a free cleaning cloth. Hit the break for a quick hands on video.

My old X-mini Capsule has served me well for years but it’s now starting to act up as slight movement of the cord will break up the audio, so it’s time to replace it. Plus it’ll be nice to have one with Bluetooth finally.

I’m in the US and they don’t take Amex so I called my bank about currency fees on my debit card, it was just 3% at my bank with minimum fee, which is only like $1.50, so I ordered one.
