Product does what it is suppose to do. Easy to slide in and out does stay secure although would have preferred it to have a fold over flap similar to the one for the iPhone 6. Still a great product.

I love this arm band. I use it all the time when I'm jogging/walking. It's easy to use and keeps the phone completely dry, no matter how sweaty you get. The only thing I don't like is that the Velcro strap can pull your skin up into the hole if you tighten it while wearing it. It can also rub a little bit if you wear it directly on your skin, not over clothes. But I would still recommend this product.

This is easy to use, comfortable to wear. It is easy to adjust and fit to your arm. The phone fits in perfectly once you remove the phone case.

I haven't used the armband too much, but when I have it worked out fine for me. When I was researching the product before purchase, there were a lot of mixed reviews but I went into the purchase open-minded.
Some pros of the product to me are: cool, sleek styling; comfortable quality of the material; tight and secure band and phone compartment; the key slot (so I have somewhere to put my house key when running outside).
A few cons to me are: the design (and therefore) the difficulty to comfortably get the headphones into the phone; the overall size (but you know what you're getting yourself into, I just discovered I don't like the size of an iPhone 5S on my arm when running, back to a iPod nano for me).
There are so many different varieties and options to iPhone armbands so I would advise to check them out in the store and not just order online. Overall this is a good quality product that does everything it's suppose to, but just wasn't for me.

I bought this for my boyfriend and he is a college athlete that works out and runs very often. He really likes the armband and says that it works well for running. He says it fits him well however, if you are a woman with slim or petite arms it probably won't fit you and will be to big. Also you definitely have to take your phone case off for this band.

For my needs it was great and for what it was meant to do if functioned perfectly. But as the title implies overall it does what it supposed to but after two weeks of use the velcro on the strap started to peel off. But its nothing that a little glue can't fix. Overall I would recommend.

Only drawback is that when using first couple times it is a little difficult to get my iPhone in & out of it because my iPhone has a case (albeit a "smaller" case). Obviously as I use the armband more it will loosen up a bit & be a little easier. Also obviously it is bad if this is too loose as no one wants their iPhone flying out of the armband during a workout.

I like that this armband is big enough to wear on the outside of my winter coat, and I can put it on with one hand. Wish it was a little easier to handle the phone when it is inside the pocket. It does have a nice hole for the cord at the bottom. I probably will have to replace it when I move up to iPhone 6.

use this when I walk my dog and being able to be hands free is really nice. Do wish that it had a larger flap to cover up phone so when I am out for a walk and it would start to rain don't have to worry about any moisture getting onto phone

I read a different review stating a iPhone 4 with a case would fit but it does not. The case I have isn't big at all but it still wouldn't fit. It's not made to do it so I'm not upset. Without the case it fits pretty well. I'm sure a 5 would be better. It stays in place and works well.

Fits my iPhone 5C just great. Much better than shoving it in my sports bra! The only difficult thing is when I want to choose a song. But I don't worry about dropping my phone.

I'm an average size male and I use this on my arm while running, cycling, working out, and doing soccer drills. I've had no problem with it slipping or changing position during these activities. It provides good access and control with my iPhone 5s. I've used it with Bluetooth headphones (, so I can't comment on how it works with wired headphones.

This was a great purchase for the value. It is super comfortable to wear and does not cause any chaffing. It also holds up well to humidity. It is also really easy to access the display through the plastic screen, so you don't have to remove the device to operate it.
