Griffin Streamline Armband for iPhone 3G, 3G S (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)PRO: extremely secure for your iphone. It won't fall out.
CON: If you REALLY sweat, the heat and moisture fogs the screen. This takes A LOT of sweat or an extreme difference in body heat and the environment.
This is a great case for a very specific application, ie, working out; when you want to take your iPhone along with you while you exercise. It's comfortable, adjustable, light weight and your phone is secure.
This case provides security, convenience and protection and is one of the slimmest sport armbands out on the market. It is made with a one-piece design and integral screen cover. It protects your iPhone from scratches and dust. You get access to the touch screen and the ports and limited access to the controls. There aren't any cut outs for the volume or silence buttons. You are also not able to snap a photo easily. So forget the use of the camera.
The thick clear, full-face screen protector safeguards against scratches and smudges while still allowing the touch screen feature to function. The thick protector also has a downside and that is that the buttons on the edges of the screen; ie, the P, L, Q, A, etc. are extremely difficult to depress. It is a matter of the seam getting in the way. Depressing these keys is achievable. You just have to be mindful to press more firmly.
The Streamline case also has a reflective trim with the idea that it makes you more visible at dusk. Reality is that this is a very small object to begin with and the trim on a small object is even smaller. It isn't a reason to buy this case.
The wash-ability of the Streamline case is great and necessary. Adjustable band to fit any arm in a breathable, comfortable fit. And, you can always stash a $20 in the case for those exercise days when you pass a donut shop and can't resist the excuse to carb load!
Bottomline, for the specific application of being accessible while you exercise or listening to music on your iPhone, this is a great option.

Belkin Sport Armband Plus with FastFit for iPod touch 1G, iPhone 1G (Blue) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My husband, an avid runner, received an iPod Touch (1G) for Christmas. As other first-generation Touch owners may already know, it's tough to find cases and accessories at stores these days, and I was pleased to find a good selection on Amazon. My husband really likes this arm band, particularly the unique quick-release feature. He hasn't had any trouble with fit, and it seems like good protection for the iPod. Navigation and accessibility of iPod menus are easy.
I have high hopes for durability, too -- his last iPod was a Nano, and he had a Belkin armband very similar to this one (minus the quick-release feature) that held up really well. My husband probably runs about 20 miles each week in most weather -- almost everything but rain.

And if you run at night or early in the morning, you'll really appreciate the added safety of reflective accents.
The included Cable Capsule lets you manage headphones in its flexible rubber dome, eliminating the hassle of dangling, tangled cords. There's even a low-profile belt clip for protecting your iPod when you're not at the gym.
The Sport Armband Plus is backed by Belkin's lifetime warranty.
