Ordered this on 4/27...with expedited shipping (I'm impatient, so sue me =P), it came to $20. Has anyone on here ordered one of these yet? If so, what did you think of it?

My sentiments exactly. I have a generic waist bag with a clip on it for normal, every-day use; I use the android slip for whenever I'm in formal wear; and I want to use this for at the gym (since I use workout programs on the phone and the stock headphones with track control anyway).

Well go for it and let me know how it is I need a new one soon because in 2 days I'm starting my P90X workout again and Love to listen to the perfect beat of music for it.

Got it in today....might have some pics for you tomorrow but I love it so far.

LOL someone doesn't exercise!!!
Let us know how it goes OP.
Is it secure?
I'd love to get an armband for running (ahh, love California) but worry about it falling out and just being heavy while swinging my arms.

pls let us know how it works while running!

I ordered one too so I'll let you guys know how it works when I receive it!

It's fantastic. Not only is it comfortable and fits the phone perfectly, but has just enough "give" that I can view a text message or look at what routines or weights I should be doing, and even type SMS responses (though I usually just go the lazy method and use voice input). I've also been using the stock Android headphones, so I clip the cord to the armband using the supplied clip (and I wrap the slack around the back of the phone). When I'm done, I pop the phone out of the silicone sleeve and toss it in my gym bag.
As far as the weight goes, the phone itself is the heaviest part, but it feels no heavier than my second generation Zune did. It IS kinda bulky, but hasn't gotten in the way of anything yet, and I don't expect it to. Just situate it on the very side of your arm, and it really can't interfere with anything. It does feel very secure, requiring a fair amount of "tug" to get the phone out of the silicone sleeve....not too much or too little, just right....definitely not gonna fall out, though - besides, if you have headphones in, the headphones themselves provide a natural tether to keep the phone in the silicone.
I've been a bit busy this last week (I just graduated from college on Sunday =D), which is why I don't have pics up, but if I remember, I'll pull the sleeve out of my gym bag when I come home tonight and take some pics for you guys. To me, this thing has been worth every penny.

How tight is the fit?
Do you think there would be problems with fitting a phone in that had a clear protector skin on it? I'm currently using the BestSkinsEver.com one.
And congrats on the graduation! Just graduated myself this past summer!

Thank you for this, I wonder when they were gonna make one of these I hate putting my nexus in my pocket while working out... We need this to show it off. lol.

I have a full body shield from Skinomi on mine and it fit just fine. As I said, it felt snug enough to be secure with just enough "give". Also, when you have headphones in, those act as an anchor.
Had to do my brakes and change over my brother's tires, so no pics today...hopefully tomorrow.

Try a bluetooth headset!
Here's the one I use when I go running:

No wires!!! I love it!!!
It can even do calls too!

I'll have to look into it, everyone I've tried has been tinny and I can't stand not having good quality music
-Charlie

Motorola's and Sony's are generally pretty good quality.

Pics at long last!!!
Oh, and remember, I have a skinomi shield on my phone...so this case definitely works with protectors.
Case by itself:
Case with phone in it (note the holes for all corresponding ports):
Obviously, it's pretty secure:

Jogging Armband for the N1

Doing a bit of research and came across these:
* Tuneband for Nexus One (US Amazon)
http://www.amazon.com/Tuneband-Grantwood-Technologys-Silicone-Protector/dp/B003GMHJAS
* iGadgitz (UK Amazon)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/iGadgitz-Neoprene-Sports-Jogging-Armband/dp/B003QJ6MR2/ref=pd_rhf_p_t_1
* Belkin Sports Armband for iPhone 3GS (UK Amazon)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B002CVCK...de=asn&creative=22206&creativeASIN=B002CVCK0S
And a few others.
Also - a lot of iPhone straps, but not a lot of confirmation, despite the similar dimensions, that the N1 will fit snuggly.
Anyone tried any of these who can advise on which are good \ bad? Any good ones I have missed?

There was a lot of arkmband discussion on another thread...maybe some scoop there.
Found it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=672443&highlight=armband

I rock the tuneband, its solid enough... i wish the strap was wider for a bit more support for the phone but definitely does the job...
I put on the screen protector as well for ****s and giggles and its actually not bad

Just Ordered the Iarmband one. Will let you know how it fits when it gets here.

Have you done hard sprinting with it? I love my Tuneband, but haven't dared to run full sprint with it.

Slip it in between your heart rate monitor band its not in the best position but it works for me.

yea it jostles around a bit... i would recommend you strap it high enough to tuck a sleeve over it

I run with the Belkin armband (from when I had an iPhone), and sony bluetooth earphones. I find it fits the Nexus quite snugly, the sound quality is great even while sprinting and no cables!

for those of you with a tuneband, does the phone fit with a case?

It fits perfectly, but I haven't dared to do hard sprinting with it yet, since it's not a full coverage. It's like a silicon sleeve and the band goes through the back of the sleeve.

This works perfectly for me. The normal way of using it with the iPhone will not work with the nexus because the hole for the 3.5mm jack is on the wrong side. Rather than destroy the thing, I put it on upside-down and it has two holes on the bottom, one of which I can use. Also this way the flap that allows you to slide the phone in and that's supposed to keep the phone inside the thing is on the top and somewhat secure thanks to the 3.5mm plug. Also, I've used it on about 15-20 different runs and it's never bothered me or showed any signs of wear.

Got it.. Ran 3 miles today, did back and biceps! Cord NEVER got in my way, and stayed plugged in the whole time!! **** YEA
Never even felt it was there, i can still swype text. Never really even thought it would be comfortable. I had to put it up higher than my bicep... If you have over 17" Biceps this would be a uncomfortable product.

has anyone else found any decent ones?

Try the one I linked to. I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be disappointed.

non of these places ship to Australia

I use the Belkin Sport Armband - but I wear it around my wrist so the N1 ends up riding like a big flat watch. The RunKeeper app is really well done, and wearing it like this allows me to see pace and distance, etc.
I haven't tried it with headphones yet.

I just got my Tuneband a couple of days ago. The days I got it I used it one the treadmill for a 30min jog at 6mph and no issues. Yesterday I used it at the gym on the weight machines and no issues either. I figure if it the N1 did pop out at least the speaker wire should keep it from hitting the floor. But it felt solid the whole time. Good product, especially when it was 12.99(?) on sale at amazon.

I ended up buying some iphone armband for like $7aud. Went for a 10KM jog the other weekend, and i cant fault it!!!
I had to cut a hole for the nexus one head fone jack but other than that perfect! Just on the outside of the where the phone sat was sweaty but inside not one drop!

G2 Arm Band?

Anyone else use the G2 with an arm band? I'm thinking of it since I don't want to go out and buy an ipod nano.
Which one are you using and how's the fit?
I have a feeling the G2 feels a bit too heavy for comfortable running, but it's worth a try to ask!

G2 is a bit heavy for armband imo
l think they cost around £10-20 so if you want to use it for running i would just
buy an ipod shuffle £30 or sony Walkman W-series £27 it is waterproof (if where you live rains all the time like here in scotland) and it doesnt have any wire.

^------------ Pretty much what he said. another option though, as it may sound silly is to have a light belt with a side pouch to put the phone in and keep it secured. you can probably combine that with your housekeys and necessary cards and have a 1 pouch for all.

edit: something along the same vein as http://www.bargainstation.com/Produ...-Detachable-Shoulder-StrapNylonBlack-Platinum
not exactly this one, but the same idea. I have a plain one that has 2 slots. a big one for whatever electronic i have and a tiny one for keys or cards.

I just hold it in my hand, and I'm a girl. Not very comfortable but it's not the end of the world.
nano and shuffle don't have GPS on them and I can't google tracks or CardioTrainer on them.

I would like a functioning armband also. I can't hold the phone in my hand when I'm on a bike. I have a Nano for music, but I'm also wanting to use Endomondo or Sports Tracker

I used one for my G1 and loved it. When I upgraded to the G2, I got an iarmband to fit it. I also use my iarmband to 'mount' my phone on exercise machines at the gym using the strap doubled over and velcroed with the additional tab.

I began using a football wrist coach with my Touch Pro a few years ago and my G2 fits nicely, as well. (google or bing "football wrist coach" to see more versions than you'll ever need) I stumbled on this while trying to find something in my stash of extra parts to secure the relatively brick-like Touch Pro to my upper arm and reduce the flopping during runs. The wrist coach holds everything securely and I'm not constantly having to readjust it.
When running, I have it rotated so the clear panel is facing away from my body to prevent the phone from hitting my torso. When riding, I have it rotated so the clear panel is on the inside of my wrist, which is convenient for quickly glancing down at the screen while in the aerobars or drops.
Cons:
- the come in several sizes, so you need to find a sporting goods store to assure you choose one that will fit your device and your arm
- you may need an extension cable for your headphones if you want to listen to music on your device while running; the swing of your arm can pull the earphones out of your ears easily - not a problem while riding typically.
e.g. My high-end Shure earphone cables are modular and work perfectly, whereas my mid-range $50 Sony's cables are too short for running comfortably.
As always, YMMV

I have been searching for a running band for months. This looked like the best option on this thread so I ordered one today. I will provide feedback when it arrives.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App

Finally received and tried the iarmband. It works for my runs. I like that the touch screen works through clear screen cover. Issues are the headphone hole is not perfectly aligned. It is a little tight on the arm, could have more ajustability. Overall I am very happy with this solution, issues are minor. I would recommend.

I have the Arkon SM-Armband and it works amazing and is only $14.95. Maybe find it cheaper on ebay or amazon. Here is the link to view videos and purchase:
<P><P>http://www.arkon.com/sports_armband/tmobile_g2_armband.html

I bought the Arkon SM armband for my G2...
I had read this thread plus the one over at androidforums.com before selecting it.
Here is the link.
EDIT, guess i need to make a couple more posts to put in a link....ok so here is the link text then for someone to copy if desired.
amazon.com/Arkon-Sm-Armband-Blackberry-Motorola-Smartphones/dp/B004VFFT3I/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1327086415&sr=8-2
It works ok, although to make it real tight like i like it I put on 2 wristbands first (even though its up on my bicep area), then slide the thing on. Also, any case for the G2 must be taken off for it to slide in....even then its quite a tight fit. Not something you just pop in and go, gotta work it a tad. This is due to phone width, not.....face size....I guess.
Overall, pleased for the 16 bucks i dropped on it.

I bought a cheap armband a while ago off Ebay similar to this.
Works perfectly for me. Touchscreen works through the transparent plastic window.
Had to cut off a very small piece of the neoprene for the headphone plug to fit.

[Q] best armband for exercise

I have looked around and havn't found one that was made just for the epic. I did find one that stated it was for the epic but on the picture it showed a fascinate. It seems like the Droid X one will fit, especially with my Active X case still on, but I wanted to ask before I made a purchase. So which armband do you use for your epic?

Duct tape that ***** to your arm bro.

What kind of exercise? I find armbands too restrictive for weightlifting. Ziploc bag + pocket = win.

This is what I use. I also have the Active X case. It is a tight fit and trying to actually use the touch screen is nearly impossible, but it does hold the phone and once I've got Pandora running, I just set it and forget it.

I personally use Tune Belt. It fits the phone snugly, protects it from moisture, and fits your arm nicely (There is an optional band extender for a dollar more that you can get if you've got diesel biceps)
I've had it for several months and its worked out great. I got it from Amazon for 17.95. Go there and search for Tune Belt and click on the one that says it fits Droid, Droid Incredible, and others. Thats the one I have.
Hope it works for you as good as it worked for me.

It fits great! I have been using mine for about 8 months. It is a little beat up but still fine. I run 3 miles 4 times a week. I took a exacto knife and cut a little square of plastic out of the bottom so i could use the buttons. Works great for me!

Thanks for this, but this is actually the one I found on amazon that stated it was for the epic but has a picture of the captivate. I don't mind taking the case off every morning to go running but I just feel better knowing that the Active X case will be doing its job while I'm being active. So how tight of a fit is it, I currently have a cheap walmart one that ripped after the 4th day, even without the case, it was meant for an ipod though

This does seem like the best one out there, but how do you put the phone into the armband? I ask because my current armband has a little opening a little bit before the top of the phone as most armbands do but while I'm running I seem to sweat so much that it actually starts building up. Mostly due to the fact that I force the phone into the armband which stretches it out and opens the little cut into a huge inch thick whole. Also do you use it with only the phone or with a case on?

I thought about this armband the most since it seems to be the biggest in size. What worries me is the opening, my current armband lets the sweat go into the phone and the opening is right where the camera is at this could prove a big problem later on. I also run 3 miles 4 times a week but have had to stop recently because I just don't enjoy running as much without endomondo running in the background telling me my distance and spotify playing my favorite tunes. Does your phone take in any moisture after your run?

i've tried out many different bands for my epic.
i can't speak for other exercise, but for running, i find the belt clip to be the best choice. i don't know how others do it, but having something as bulky(relatively) as epic around your arm... as you swing your arm for miles and miles... it does get quite bothersome.
having your phone by your waist, it minimizes movement of the phone as you run.
think about it, your waist vs your arm. which one moves more as you run?
it really works well.
just my 2c

I'm another Tune Belt user and I've been satisfied. Not a profuse sweater, but never had the moisture problems. One problem with the belt clip option is that it will hurt your bluetooth performance particularly for heart rate monitoring, which is my main reason for taking the phone on the run.

just to clarify, i use a belt clip holster... just a regular one.
ebay link
i'm not sure if i purchased mine from this particular guy, but it looks the same as that one.
also, i have HxM bluetooth heart monitor, and have not experienced any different reading when i wear the phone on the waist or the arm.
the only negative thing about a belt clip holster is that you need to fasten your running shorts... but i do this normally anyway, so not much of a loss for me.

I use a belkin - I think it's for an iphone. It's a snug fit, but I can get it all the way in so that the top hole closes around the phone and I don't have to worry about it popping out. I did have a couple instances where the position on my arm caused the neoprene to bump the volume buttons, but rotating it slightly seemed to fix that problem. The touch screen is difficult to use, but not impossible... I'm not sure about fitting a case inside of it though? Oh, and in order to use the headphones, just stick the phone in upside down ;-)
[edit] and i do apologize that I didn't notice this post was from september...

I'm sure everyone has moved past this since it was posted 4 months ago, but I thought I should mention it for anyone listening. Im a long distance runner (30+ miles a week) but lift a couple of days a week as well. My holster of choice is the Amphipod Runlite Airstretch Hydration belt. it has a zip close pocket for IDs and keys, a velcro close pouch for my Epic, and removable water bottles. Very comfortable.

Looking for a way to carry your Note 8.0?

He guys/gals I have been using a Holster to carry my Note 8.0 and my old Galaxy Tab Plus 7. This is the best way to carry the Note without it getting in the way and still have room for your cash, pens and wallet! Check out eHolster! I sometimes get weird looks but nobody says anything and cops don't even bother you, nor does TSA.
This works with a lot of cases also. I have a Leather case with a removable Bluetooth keyboard I got from Amazon. Is a tight fit but it works just fine with the Holster. The case is awesome! Fits the Note just perfect. The holder has velcro to keep the Note nice and snug. The keyboard has really good key stroke and it has an auto off when not in use. But if you are not going to use the keyboard go ahead and turn it off. The auto connect only takes a hot sec once turned back on.

Great find!
I've been looking for this exact thing.
Have you tried wearing a jacket over it?
I sometimes where suits and I'd be interested in knowing how it fits under a jacket.

depends on two things imo:
1. the inner pocket size, mine fits even with Samsung cover on it, but it's a matter of millimeters - few less and no-go,
2. your height - for me (I'm tall) it makes no problems when carrying in inner pocket (well, basketball is out of the question), but I guess shorter persons might have some discomfort with tablet pressing against ribcage and restricting freedom of movement
best way is to check for yourself
PS. Seems I completely misunderstood the question - you were asking how jacket fits over holster, not how tablet fits in the jacket, right? Anyway, I'll leave what I wrote, maybe it'll be of some use for somebody...

Thanks, yeah I'm thinking of wearing it under a jacket.
I really like this concept, I had looked at some other attempts at doing this that were not as good.
It may not be an all day/every day solution, but I could see myself using this very often.

I carry it in the long pockets of my my white coat...perks of being a doctor
