Not all smartphone users enjoy their sleek smartphones button-free, and would prefer actual physical buttons for certain actions. Dimple has been imagined with these users in mind, and the project is currently seeking funding on Indiegogo. Each band-aid-like Dimple sticker offers users access to four buttons that-can be configured to trigger certain actions on Android smartphones and tablets once an NFC connection is established. Dimple needs to raise $43,000 by January 10 to become a real product, with the company having already raised more than $26,800 in one day after listing the product on Indiegogo. The cheapest Dimple, available in a predefined color chosen by the user, costs $25 (although it’s not available anymore), while two Dimples retail for $45.
