Armband too small July 12, 2007
10 out of 13 found this review helpful
First of all the product I received is a little differnt then the image when I purchased it. No big deal though, but the thing doesn't even come close to fitting around my arm. The armband strap measures 11.80" long, so if you have big arms, it's not going to fit. It doesn't stretch much either.
 Perfect for use on the Bike or Elliptical September 12, 2007

I use this armband about twice a week at the gym to listen to podcasts on the bike and elliptical machines. It's small and folds into a small space like a gym bag well. It holds the iPhone securely and you can easily access the touch screen and the side volume buttons. After many workouts and no washings, the armband doesn't smell like a workout armband, so you don't have to wash it much.
Another review says the band is a little small. Because I've worked out with weights for the past 7 years I have bigger arms than most people. Still, I'm not a bodybuilder and with my arm the band just fits. If you wrap the band with the iPhone together first, and then slide your arm through the band, the armband should work for most people. However, if you have big arms because you are overweight or a true body builder, then this armband is not the armband for you.
Bad Design October 13, 2007

This product was not designed well. The plastic covering is merely glued to the armband. It makes for a nice and pretty 'flush' finish, however glue+jarring+sweat+sunlight+$400 electronic device = angry customer when the glue released and dropped iPhone on concrete. Belkin normally provides great products, but they clearly weren't thinking through this one too well.
Do not buy November 15, 2007

Came apart on it's FIRST outing. The plastic is glued (not stitched) to the face of the neoprene. The adhesive started coming loose about 20 minutes into a run. Had I not noticed it, the entire face would have become loose enough and my iPhone would have toppled to the street.
I've had armbands for gen 1 iPod, iPod mini, and gen 1 iPod shuffle. Hands down the worst designed and manufactured armband I've purchased. Writing both Belkin and Amazon a letter and will update if things go south or north. For anyone considering this, please don't make the same mistake I did.
