SPORTLINK Running Armband, Universal Detachable Quick Mount Sports Armband Phone Arm Band Holder for iPhone 12 11/11 Pro/11 Pro Max/7/7 Plus/8/8 Plus/X/XR/XS/Xs Max, Galaxy S10/S10+/S9/S8/S7

Quick Summary: Works well for light to moderate exercise, used it while hiking and light jogging/running no problem. Just for context, I tried this with my OnePlus 3T phone inside a slim plastic case.Read below for more details.What makes an armband good? I think it's a combination of material quality, how it does its job holding the phone, and the cost. To start off, this armband comes in a plain brown box. All the materials inside come inside a little plastic bag. The packaging is nothing special but I personally don't care for premium packaging for an armband. I got a quick instruction manual, 2 different sized bands (one for your wrist the other for your arm), the plastic phone holder and the bit that stretches over your phone.The quality of everything is pretty good for the price, nothing feels too cheap. I only have very little time with it so far but it looks like the materials will hold up as long as you aren't overly rough with everything. The armbands are a good size for probably most people. I am a man over 6 feet tall with big arms and wrists, both the arm band and wrist band portion fit me well. You probably won't have a problem with the size unless you are very tiny or very overweight. The part of the armband that touches your skin isn't itchy or rough, soft to the touch. It didn't cause me any chaffing. The part that holds your phone, both the hard plastic base and the stretchy "rubber" material feel nice. The plastic base isn't cheap brittle plastic and the stretchy rubber material is a little grippy which is good because that's the part that stretches and grips your phone.Does it do a good job holding your phone? Will your phone slip out during usage? I think the armband does a good job and works well for my needs. I went on a hike today and had my phone on my wrist and later on my arm. On the way down some hills I did some light jogging/running and the phone did not slip out. I also did a rather harsh test by purposefully shaking my phone hard while inside the grip, it did not fall out which is good. However, do not expect to run a triathlon or Olympics practice in this. I feel like this band will hold up well for light to moderate exercise. Time will tell how it holds up with constant use but so far so good.Overall I think that for the price, this is a good universal armband that will probably fit most modern phones. I think the only slightly negative part of this is having to get used to the extra weight on my arm while jogging :/Extra info: the mechanism that holds the phone in place uses metal clamps. This is good and will most likely hold up well. You push the big blue button on the grip to remove the phone holder portion. You can actually rotate the phone to any orientation you want (up, down, side to side). There are also some yellow stripe parts on the arm bands that glow in the dark. It isn't super bright or anything but it's a nice little extra. I don't think it's that light reflective type of material so don't expect it to save your life if you're jogging on the street at night. Be smart!

We primarily use this for running/walking. Initially it is a little tricky figuring how things connect together and using one hand to unleash the phone from holster, however, once you figure it out it pretty much works flawlessly. I couldn't imagine spending more on one of these. Granted we are not hard core runners, we run 5k's, and we are using it with an IPhone 8 Plus to give you some perspective on the size of the phone we are using. Would recommend this product.

I love the functionality of this armband. The only one I’ve had where I don’t need to Phil it out of a sleeve anytime I need to look at my phone. I had one before that lasted about 2 years before breaking, which was ok as I use it at least 3x/week but this one broke a little over a month after I got it. However, after contacting the company, they offered to replace the item no charge and stood by their product which they say they will do for a year after purchase. Thank you!!!

This armband was sturdy, and it didn’t feel like my phone would come loose while I was running. I have an iPhone 11 Pro. I liked that I could use this for any similarly sized phone and wouldn’t have to buy a new one if my phone changed. Because the bands grip the screen so tightly, however, the touchscreen didn’t always respond to my own finger touching the screen. It was difficult to take the phone in and out of the stretchy rubber bands without exiting or entering an app. The rubber bands gripping the phone also got in the way of your ability to swipe up and get back to your home screen.

Live the whole concept , only issue is that the face recognition is block and you have to move the strap to get it to work. But other then that it’s a great product and well worth the cost.
