Not As good as I thought
This Arm Band is ok...It will hold the mini Ipod in place when jogging or just using it casually. The only draw back is that is you dont tighted good it will eventually become loose and slip down from your arm. This is really annoying specially when in the middle of a jog. Otherwise the product is durable and looks good. Good for what it is, but not in combination This armband is good for what it is: Something to keep your iPod mini secure while you're working out, or doing other activities you want to have your hands free for. The band is wide enough that it's comfortable, but it's not too big and clunky for a smaller person. The band itself is well built and secure. My only complaint about this item is that if you use the iSkin to protect your Mini, you'll have to take it out of the skin every time you want to use the arm band. When I was going to the gym every day, this was a very large hassle. If you don't have your iPod in an iSkin or similar casing, this armband is great. As a note, it also doesn't have anywhere for the wearer to tuck in the extra cord from the headphones, which I've seen as a feature on some other arm bands. It's never been an issue for me, but might be something someone else cares about. As for the price, it is an Apple product. They always are a little more expensive. Watch out! Make sure the ipod mini is in stock first. I ordered the Ipod Mini (pink) and this Arm Band at the same time. A day later, I get an email from Circuit City (the online affiliate of Amazon for the Mini) saying they have no Ipod Mini's instock and my order is cancelled. But, Amazon does not cancel my order for the Arm Band nor can I cancel it. So, I getting an Ipod Arm Band and no Ipod. Real Lame. I would wait until you have confirmation of shipping on the IPod Mini, before getting this Arm Band (they don't arrive together anyway) or you could be stuck getting an Arm Band (for $30) and no IPod. GREAT product, BAD price. Thie armband is a wonderful THEFT DETERRANT. Though velcro, is a safer bet than the eprovided ipod clip. Putting on and taking off the arm band is just involved enough to prevent theft or loss. Before a theft could be completed, it would be noticed by the wearer. But, the amazon price is bad. Go to comp usa or microcenter. A must have exercise accessory If you plan on using your iPod Mini while exercising, you need to get this great arm band! The velcro closer holds tight (but not too tight) and doesn't slip while you are jumping around or running on the treadmill. It fits so nicely on my arm that I often forget I'm even wearing it. People have complained about the price, but this was a thirty bucks well spent for me. I don't leave home without it! | |
