Decent Armband
The product is fine for the price. One pointer if you are going to use it for iPhone 6 plus: The phone fits very snugly along with the Seidio Surface case. If your case is any thicker than Seidio Surface then you may have issues with the fit. I have used this product with and without the case and all of what I present here is common in both scenarios.The holes at the bottom line up nicely with the phones headphone jack and the lightning connector. The fit is very snug. Operating the touch screen is no worse than what I expected based on using other similar armbands with my older phones in the past.I initially gave this product only three stars due to the following issues:1. There is a slit like opening in the back (the part which is in contact with your arm) that you use for inserting the phone in the armband. The problem is that this is a slit opening and does not have a flap so if you are using this armband against your skin or even if you have your shirt under it and you sweat a lot (e.g., on a long run) then the sweat seeps through and comes into contact with your phone. This may create issues in the long run.2. I find it difficult to press the Home button and the sleep/wake button on my iPhone when inside the pouch. The outer shell is a little stiff. The problem is compounded by the fact that it is really cold outside and I am wearing full finder gloves on most of my runs.3. I am having to adjust the armband 2-3 times during my upper body workouts. This may just be because the fit for me is a little awkward. Using the outer slit of the armband makes it too loose and using the inner slit makes it too tight for me. YMMV. If the other two issues were not there I wouldn't even mention this one.I added one star back to make it a four star rating because it cost me under $10.Having said all that, I think this is a decent armband for the price. I cannot speak to its durability as I have been using it only for about two weeks. I will update this review later if I find issues with durability but as of now I can say that it will last you more than 2 weeks :-).

A good armband if you don't need to access your phone...
It works well to keep moisture away from my phone. I have an I-phone 6 plus with a Cache Alaska case, and it really does fit well. Doesn't move around or fall out, easy to slip in and out when it's not on your arm yet. BUT, once it's on your arm, it's a little difficult pulling it out of the armband. Then, trying to slip it back into the armband is nearly impossible...I actually have to slide the armband down to my wrist area where there is enough slack and slide my phone back in at that point. Very inconvenient. So what if you can use it through the plastic (which you CAN, it does actually work...)? You can't use it when it's up on your arm anyway, through the plastic or not!

It might last six months
The band fits my one plus one fantastically, and the touch screen works fairly reliably inside the band. The band also fits my arm fairly well and I've a particularly small arm. The only problem I have with the band is it's cheap construction, the velcro is already trying to pull and lift up from the rest of the band I can't imagine it's going to last for more than 6 months of runs. Not sure if I'll try a different band at that point or just buy another one of these since it's so difficult to find something that fits my one plus one reliably.

it was a 10 mile run on a summer morning and it would probably be fine for less demanding activities
I may just perspire too much to ever keep an ipod safe on my arm. This was definitely not able to keep the moisture away any more than others I have tried. To be fair, it was a 10 mile run on a summer morning and it would probably be fine for less demanding activities. Still, if that is what you are looking for, this really offers no wonderful improvement from other similar arm bands I have tried.I gave it to someone else who just loves it, though. It is able to fit her smaller arm better than any other large phone arm band has.

Good enough
I have it for the lg g3, it's okay. It fits perfectly and you can sometimes tap through the plastic but it is not consistent. I do feel like it might be a little big. I feel like my arms are big, but i still have it on the tightest setting. I haven't used the extra strap but maybe it helps in that. I am satisfied with my purchase, it stays put, does what I need to do. I have not run in this so couldn't speak on that.

the smaller adjustment is fine, but it's just not as convenient as I'd ...
This armband fits my LG g3 perfectly even with the case on. My issue with it is it doesn't fit my arm right. It can be adjusted and it even comes with an extension for very large or muscular arms, but the strap is either too small or too large for my arm. If I take my phone out of its case, the smaller adjustment is fine, but it's just not as convenient as I'd like. I'll keep it for now, but will be looking for another to replace it.

Price and quality makes sense for what it does... Enjoy....
I love it! It is freakishly clear! Although I sweat really, really hard, it does not hold my sweat or smudge on the seethrough surface. Maybe not yet, but I am going with what I have experienced after at least 6 walks which is about 18-20 miles. I loved the fact that you put the phone in through the top. My old armband, you put the phone in through the bottom and I always felt like the phone was about to fall out. This case is slightly too big for my phone. I have a S5 sport with a case. It holds both and with extra room and slightly too much extra room. Buuuuuuutttt I am happy with the price and with the case so there you go.... lol....

A good gamble.
I had asked the amazon community if this would fit my LG G3 and I got some good answers, still had to go on a gamble though but it paid off. I skateboard, run and do a lot of beaching and this fits and works well. If there is a downside to this armband, it is that my touch screen will not operate through the plastic. I can only speak for the phone I have though. This fits great and does not slip. I love the small card/keys pocket too. Shipping time & packaging was great as well. All in all this is a nice item and would recommend to anyone with a larger screen phone.
