Here is the World's SMALLEST ear phones!

Earin are claiming to be the world’s smallest wireless earphones and rightly so. Most ‘wireless’ earphones on the market such as Dre’s new Powerbeats still have a cable that runs from right to left ear, however, the Earin earphones are actually completely wireless.
A group of former Sony Ericsson and Nokia engineers led by mechanical and design engineer Olle Lindén have revealed the new Earin buds that simply pop into your ears with no dangling cables.
They are ‘in-ear’ earphones and the silicon tip fits snuggly into your ear. They are just 14 mm in diameter and 20 mm in length but still manage to find enough room for you to stream music over Bluetooth 3.0 or 4.0. They weigh just 5 g and have seperate 50 mAh rechargeable Li-Ion batteries which rids of the cable from left to right but only gives a battery life of around 3 hours. They come with an accompanying storage capsule that offers charge on the go; this can be charged via USB cable. The capsule houses a 100 mAh Li-Ion battery that weighs just 25 g.
They made use of balanced armature speakers, siilar to those found in professional in-ear monitors and hearing devices, meaning that power consumption is low and sound quality is decent – although no external reviews have been made yet. 

     They come with 3 different sized silicone inserts just like most earphones theseday however there is a much greater risk of losing them if they pop out of your ear. To cover this, they designed a “Concha lock” from silicon which uses a wing to lock to your inner ear. The team have already produced working prototypes and have now looked towards Kickstarter for funds to help them hit the market. You can pre-order your own Earin buds and wireless charging capsules for early pledges of $168 and if the campaign is successful they hope to deliver by January 2015. The project is already half way to its $300,000 goal
