An Audio Dock That Welcomes All Androids

When you replace your Android phone, should you have to replace your music dock too?

Maybe not. The iLuv MobiAir iMM377 is a dock that will accommodate a variety of Android phones regardless of which side of the phone the micro USB plug is on, or which way it is facing.

The micro USB plug in the dock rotates so it can accommodate a device, no matter which direction its plug faces. A sliding set of gripping arms that can be adjusted to fit any number of different devices. It worked fine with the Galaxy Note 2, an oversized phone, and it can take a 7-inch tablet, but it won't fit a full-size 10-inch one.

It's a very compact little unit, roughly 5-by-10-by-2 inches, and it sounds bigger than it is - but that is still not so big. The sound was better than I expected for a unit of its size, but you won't fill your dorm room with pumping dance party sounds using the iMM377.

Even though it plugs in to a device, you still have to connect to the dock using B luetooth (which was easy to do). Of course, using Bluetooth, you could connect any device, whether it fits in the cradle or not. The advantage is you can avoid draining your batteries because the plug sends a charge to the battery.

The iMM377 is $120 online from iLuv.
