    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.

    works great for my iPhone 6

    A bigger phone = bigger arm/phone holder, but I'm comfortable when I run and no rubbing on my elbow. The plastic viewscreen allows for easy touchscreen use and the extra layer against my arm keeps the sweat out. I have a thin, plastic protector around my phone and it still fits in the arm sleeve (takes a little to get it out due to the plastic cover and sweat). If you have a brick phone protector, it won't fit in the sleeve. I'm a modest jogger and have had no problems with 2.5 miles a day for a month with this new phone holder

    Pretty 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.

    Pros: fits snugly and doesn't slide like some other arm bands I've used in the past. Its very slim in profile. has a band to keep the headphones untangled. Has a slot for an id/credit card etc behind the phone. Cons: doesn't fit an iphone in a case, to snug. you have to take any case off the iphone before putting it in the arm band. The plastic protector sticks to the screen and can make it hard to remove when you're finished. You can not use your touch id while the phone is in this case. Over all works well. It is a quality product but has a few draw backs as stated above.

    Lightweight and relatively waterproof

    Bought this to replace a more expensive waterproof armband case. This Belkin is SO much more comfortable because it's all material and no plastic. I can hardly feel it when it's on my arm. I've worn it on a few runs where I got caught in the rain and it kept my iPhone dry. My old case had an intermediary jack system that stopped working, so I like that this Belkin has a small hole on one end that lets you plug in your headphones directly to the phone. I have an iPhone 5 and it fits with case in to the sleeve opening with room to spare, and it's not hard to get in and out of the sleeve. An iPhone 6 with case might be pretty tight though. I haven't had any trouble with the touch screen not working as some have mentioned. You might have to press on it extra hard, but it connects well enough. As some have commented, the armband is small. It's perfect for a normal woman's bicep, but I doubt it would work for a man. But this is a "slim-fit" model so I think its purpose is to be smaller so women don't have a bunch of extra bulk on their arm.

    I do like this product. I had one that fit the IPhone 4s so it was a bit smaller. This one is larger of course to fit the IPhone 6. So I am getting used to the larger size on my arm. I have to have it just at the right spot on my arm so it doesn't rub while I'm running. I do like that it has a space to put a credit card or single key and that the face of the phone is now protected.

    Slim case (good), small arm band (bad)

    This is an ok case. It fits my phone without having to remove the case it's in (Spigen Slim Armor) which is nice. The flap on the back keeps the phone secure and would do a nice job of keeping it dry if it rained. The clear plastic is durable and allows everything but the Touch ID function to work (as would be expected) The one (serious) fault with the case is the arm band. Why is it so small? I don't have big arms for a guy (I'm 5'11" and 200lbs) yet the arm band barely fits. I can still use the case, but it's tight on my arm and the tab is using the last bit of Velcro on the strap to attach. Not sure who they made this arm band for, but it's not going to fit a lot of guys.

    so 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

    Belkin Slim-Fit iPhone Case

    The concept is good; an armband to secure the iPhone 6 while running or biking, however the execution could've been better. What we like: the device securely holds the iPhone in place during exercise so that the iPhone's motion sensor can do its job for the various fitness apps that are available. What we didn't like: The phone is extremely difficult to remove to answer a text or a call; and the Velcro fastener is already weak after only one month of use. For the serious runner, I would say spend a little more on something better; for the average walker, this may foot the bill, or just carry the phone in your pocket and save your money.

    If 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

    I actually received this as a gift and it turned out to be great. I didn't previously use an armband but carrying my phone for my 4 mile long runs was getting extremely tedious. If you don't currently use an armband I would strongly recommend getting one. My iPhone 6 fits perfectly inside and the case even has a pocket to put my key in while I'm out on a run. It fits well and stays snug. The only Sort of drawback is that sweat marks are showing up on it but I have not tried to clean it, this usually goes with out saying though. All around a great armband

    Snug fit for iPhone 6

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I 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.

    Pros: the armband protects the phone better then my previous band from sweat Cons: it doesn't fit perfectly well (too much wiggle room for the iphone6). Can only use headphones that have a straight plug not one that has a bend to the plug (those with an L-shape bend tend to pop out easily while running)

    This arm band is comfortable, sweat proof, and even has a pocket for credit cards and keys. It was a little pricey, but it is worth paying a little extra for this band. It doesn't slip, the velcro stays even after a long run, and I know I can use it during my entire half marathon.

    Not the best armband I've had, and a bit expensive for what it is, but it keeps the phone safe, has extra compartments for cash/cards and keys, and doesn't slip/slide. Strap is a bit stiff. I am overall satisfied and will use it for as long as I can.
