I love the concept- they move and feel better than the standard mass production armbands. But, like others said- taking your MP3 player out to change a song gets a little annoying. I actually have a small headphone amplifier taped to my MP3 player to power my 50mm JVC headphones. The setup fits easily into the pocket.
I think I paid like $20 for my set. I've seen this sold for $35 which is way too much in my opinion. This is a good work out option, but comes with drawbacks. I'll probably have to buy another pair in 8 months. Not terrible. *meh*
The only con is the fact that, because its such a tight fit, youll want to make playlists for your workouts (as someone else mentioned). Due to the effort involved in forcing my big mp3 player into this band, theres no way I'll be stopping to take it out and change songs or whatever. I knew this going into my purchase, so there's no reason that this should count against these great armbands.
Pick one up today, and you will be lovin it!
If using on a dry warm day it's really great. However... I commute to work on my bicycle, and it's almost winter here in Moscow, Russia.
I usually wear a Helly Hansen crew thermal underwear and a lightweight water-resistant/wind-proof/breathable jacket when I bike. So I put this
new armband over my crew, then the jacket on top. I ride pretty hard and often work up a sweat. When I arrived to my destination and took the jacket
off, I've found the case was completely soaked with sweat, and my MP3 player was covered in large drops of sweat. Pure luck it didn't got inside the player
and damage it, which is not cheap and is almost new - that would have been a total bummer. But I obviously can't think of using that armband again, with
a jacket on top of it. It probably works ok without a jacket on top, on dry days. So gym or any activity in good weather without another layer of clothing on top - it's ok, but it can be downright scary in cases like mine (unless you own a waterproof audio player).
I've written to NXE's customer support regarding this issue a month ago and haven't heard anything from them. Poor e-mail customer service. Didn't call since I'm in Russia.
I'm back to my old "uninspired case-and-strap" case that gets sweaty on the outside but doesn't let it through to my player.
