i have used this armband for a samsung saga as well as a Blackberry Tour. both phones fit fine even though the saga is longer than the tour (it's also very thin). it was really perfect for the Saga.

i've never had a problem with it slipping off, i have no problems with it being too tight or too lose. it stays wherever i put it and i can even move it around if i need to because it stretches nicely. i have used it to go running for about 6 months now, maybe 2 or 3 times a week, so i'd say it's had many uses now and there aren't really any signs of wear and tear. i even my first marathon with it, and it was light and almost like it wasn't even there. i ordered a second one and i can't tell the difference between the two half the time even though the 2nd one is much newer and hasn't really be used. so i'd say the quality is decent. not crazy impressive, but sturdy and does the job.

one other thing, i did cut a hole in the older one since i've gotten the Blackberry Tour, and it works great with the trackball. the Tour is a little smaller so i do have to adjust it a bit to make it stay, but again, this armband does the job.

I was pleased that my Moto Cliq fits securely in ths armband and I can operate the touchscreen while using it. However, I have somewhat scrawny arms and my phones tends to flop against my arm when I am running. Also, no matter how I adjust it the hook side of the velcro seems to overlap the loop side just enough that it scratches my arm when running and now I hav this giant painful line of raw skin on my inner arm which of course seems to rub against everything, thus hurting even more. This would have been better construction if it were wider where the straps connect to the pocket to prevent my phone from flopping around, and if either the loop side of the velcro was wider of the hook side were narrowed to prevent the abrasive skin contact. From now on I guess I'll just slip a wrist band around the strap to keep it from scratching me.

I purchased this armband to hold my Samsung Moment for when I jog and I am very satisfied. This armband was recommended to me by a friend who has been using it for his G1 with success. I definitely would purchase another one.

I got this for my Moto Droid and it works great. I've only used it a couple times, but appears to be constructed well. The touch interface works through the clear screen, though some times it takes a firm press or a couple tries. I would definitely buy it again.

I use my ArmBand a lot...when I'm riding my bike or on the Stairmaster, treadmill, bus or train, clothing or grocery shopping, long walks and when I'm relaxing...I sometimes wear it on my arm, I strap it to a pants hook or put it in my bag, it also protects your iPod.

After struggling along trying to find a good quality arm band I highly recommend this product. I am hard of hearing so wearing the phone on my arm ensures that I don't miss any calls. Also it's easy to remove and return to the pouch. The clear plastic facing is strong. The band doesn't fold up like some, it retains it's shape and always fits well. I have worn it consistently for a little over a month and I am very happy and satisfied with it. I don't see too many of these though. The last one I saw was on the arm of a biker, and I noticed it has he rode past on his Harley. I had to smile, being a 63 year old female on the bus...but this serves to show that the armband serves everybody's purpose. It's looks macho on one arm and sensible on another depending on what type of arm is being served by it.

This arm band is not bad. There are a couple of issues. The first is that it does not do a good job in keeping the moisture from entering the pocket area holding the phone. the phone tends to get moist and I'm not sure how long that can go without affecting the phone. The other issue may be specific to the clear coating I had put on the glass of my phone. There is a protective film that one can have put on the glass to protect it from scratches and dings. It works well. The challenge is that the clear plastic on the arm band sticks to this film very well. What happens is that it makes it very hard to pull off the phone once it is in the pocket. It has stuck so well that the film was pulled off the phone slightly. Again that may be only an issue with a protective film on the phone. Overall the fit is good. It doesn't pinch my arm or chafe my chest when running. Without the issues I mentioned, it is not bad.

Functionally OK. My Motorola Cliq did not fit easily. Ended up returning it but it was very easy to do so. The only thing I did not like so much was the plastic face cover being a little to rigid.

Great armbands - fits perfectly!

This is one of the best (and least expensive) armbands available and I use mine very often.

Great buy!

I bought this armband for my Verizon Motorola Droid, and found that the Droid could fit inside the opening, but it was extremely tight. Perhaps after use it was start to loosen.
