It's ok
|Posted .The case is perfect it has a compartment for cards except one bad thing about it. I can't seem to fit my Bose i20 cancelling speakers the whole is small and the Bose end terminal is on a 90 degrees angle so every time I jog it disconnects so I ended up cutting little bit from the case to secure the terminal.

Comfortable & Light
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendIf you are looking for an armband for your iPhone 6 the Belkin Slim Fit is the one to get. Its a brand you can trust. Materials are made to take abuse and is designed with comfort in mind. The grey color helps to hide dirt and material is sweatproof so you wont damage your phone. Keep in mind that is kinda of big on my arm because the phone itself is large. With that being said it is still comfortable, fits well without feeling to tight. I gave it four stars because while I feel it is a great choice it is not the easiest to slip the phone in. I have to take it out of its everyday case and it is a bit of a struggle to slip it into the band, there is no extra give or room- fits the phone like a glove. Beware that if you have a screen protector it could get ruined- mine did- due to the snug fit. I only gave it 4 stars

Slim Fit: They Aren't Kidding
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendBoy, if your arm has any weight or bulging muscle to it, the Slim Fit version of this band is not for you. The great news: the velcro strap has a big rubber square that keeps the end of the strap from popping out so even if you can't hook the velcro back on itself, you can still wear it and it will stay in place on your arm even when you're running (it just might impede circulation some) . The phone will definitely NOT fall out of this case. It has an envelope-style closure (like nice pillowcases have) over the top of it. But getting the phone in and out is rather difficult because of the plastic on the front. It grips the tempered glass protecting my screen and the small rubber edge of the case. Make sure you fight that battle before you put it on your arm. It has an access point for your headset and a little loop around the arm band to keep your headphone wire up and out of the way, so that;'s a nice improvement over the last one I had. All in all, I would recommend it, just with the reservation that you REALLY double check the measurements of the band to ensure it will accommodate your arm.

does its purpose
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendPurchased this armband specifically for working out and have an Iphone6s. First time purchasing something like this. I'm a petite person so I wanted an armband that's not too big and sloppy. It holds in place when it's tight but I do feel like it's too tight and it sort of is cutting circulation but when I do loosen it, I feel like it's sliding off. The screen is not sensitive, I do remember that I had to touch the screen at least a couple of times to get my phone to do what I want. Besides all this, it does it's purpose, i needed something to hold my phone while I jog.

The quest for a 6+ armband
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendFinding a good running solution for the 6+ is a challenge. The phone is to big for most normally sized pockets, and even that option is out if you run in hot weather. Armbands are great - and this Belkin is better then most as my first off-brand armband lasted only 3 months! The phones sheer size is really the issue...it's a lot to stuff into something that then straps around your arm. This band is better built and is holding its own quite well. Can be a little tricky getting the phone out after a run as its in their tight, but I don't mind. I can see where if you wear the strap too tight, you'll notice some separation along the borders after about a month...so be careful on how tight you crank it down. Still, it's holding up like a champ and for a high priced arm band, it's going it's job well.

Does its job
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendPretty good armband. I hardly feel it on my arm and doesn't seem to slip off. The card pocket is nice because I can keep my id and some cash on me while I run in the park (in case of emergencies). The sleeve seems to wick the sweat off my arm but keep it away from the phone and cash. My only con is that without my case on my phone it seems loose in the sleeve, but with the case, it is a little tight getting it in and out and I have to press hard on the plastic cover to use the screen because th case raises the plastic off of the face.

pretty good
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendso I had the previous version of this armband for my iPhone 53. This one for my iPhone 6 is a bit better. It has a rubber band thingy on it which allows you to shorten up your earphone cord, which is nice. Also the phone seems to fit in it's spot a little better, but I wish it was still easier to get the phone out. I also would like it if they made it easier somehow to use headphones with an L shaped plug on them. I have tried cheap extenders, but then it seems the inline volume control doesn't work. So, I have had to use my very good B&W headphones as they have a straight plug. Don't get me wrong, I love these headphones, but I am worried about ruining them if it starts to rain when I am out running. Best option out there, but I think the whole idea of an armband could be thought out just a little bit better

Snug fit for iPhone 6
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendI was a bit disappointed. This product is not up to their normal standards. Everything about the case seems nice from first look. The material seems like quality material, it feels durable and sturdy, and band seems like it would hold tight while running. Everything changes when you actually try it on and try to put your phone in the case. First off, I have a very slim case on my iPhone 6 and had to struggle to get the phone into the armband. It still didn't fit properly after trying to shove it down in there, so I finally had to give up and remove the case that was on my iPhone. Even after taking the case off, which I've never had to do with an armband before, the phone still didn't fit well inside. The plastic cover on the armband bubbles out making it difficult to access the iPhone and definitely a struggle to do anything more than press an app. The earphone slot on the armband doesn't line up well with the phone and makes it difficult to plug headphones in adding further to the awkward fit of the phone in the armband. I'm 6'1, 230 lbs with an athletic build, not a muscle man by any means, and this armband barely fits around my arm and is uncomfortablely tight when fastened. Anybody with slightly larger arms or build would not be able to use this armband.
Q: Questiondo you have to remove phone out of case to use armband?Do you have to remove the cell phone to use the armband?

- A:Answer I use an "HB Tune" armband and I do NOT have to remove from case.
Answered by RayRay
Q: Questionwhat is the largest arm the band will fit?I have large biceps and triceps will it fit over 17 inch arms?
Asked by Wes.
- A:Answer I doubt it. If you classify your arms as "large", the arm band will most likely not fit your arm. I have (what I would call) average arms and it barely fits me.

Q: QuestionCan you use the phone while it is in the armband?i.e. does the touch screen function respond to touch/heat through the protective covering, to switch songs while running, for example?

- A:Answer Yes.
