Tuneband for iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS, Grantwood Technology's Armband, Silicone Skin, and Screen Protector, Assorted Colors

Comment: I recently started running more and using my iPhone while doing so, which led me to want an armband. After some researching I decided to take the plunge and try the Tuneband, since it fit my two main criteria.

1. I wanted something relatively cheap.
2. I wanted a product whose primary purpose was to be an armband.

Overall I am extremely satisfied with my purchase and have consolidated some pros and cons below.

============
PROS
============
+ Cheap. I paid just under $17 for the red model with shipping included.
+ Elastic armband that is comfortable. The armband is made of soft material that stretches nicely around your arm while still maintaining a snug fit.
+ Screen protector is a nice add-in for anyone who does not already have one.
+ The rubber casing is soft and flexible, so I am able to slide my iPhone into place without removing my case (elago S2 Case for iPhone 3G/GS - Jean Indigo + Universal Dock Adapter included).
+ All the iPhone ports and functions are accessible. The case provides slots for the headphone jack, camera and iPhone adapter. In addition, the casing has a raised button-like surface for the volume and lock buttons.

============
CONS
============
- The only drawback I can see is the rubber casing, which may not offer the most protection in the event that you drop your iPhone. In my case it's not a big deal because I don't use the casing without the armband. However, anyone that is looking for a one stop shop of case and armband may want to look at other options as well.

If you want a simple iPhone armband for a good price this fits the bill.

Comment: I got this arm band in pink for my wife who loves running on our treadmill. She loves it! She just needed the small arm band that came with the product, even though the extended arm band came with it too. It keeps the phone securely attached to her arm and she says it's very comfortable...doesn't even know it's there anymore when she runs. Before the arm band, she would place her iPhone on the console lip of the treadmill, and end up hitting the ear bud wire with her hands as they were pumping back and forth and send the phone flying! Not anymore. This product does everything it says it will and is perfect for anyone wanting an arm band for their iPhone.

I would highly recommend this product to anyone wanting an arm band for their iPhone. The best part about this purchase was Grantwood Technology's customer service. I had read other reviews where the owner of the company would try and resolve any issues a customer had with the product. This was impressive. I don't know many owners who would do that. After reading through some of the reviews and seeing that a handful of people needed the extended length arm band, I called and asked them for the longer arm band strap after I placed my order. Their staff got back to me almost immediately (within 1 hour) letting me know the extended length arm band would be shipped with my order. I am more than pleased with the overall experience I've had with Grantwood Technology and I'd buy a product from them again should the need ever come up again...even if they are probably buckeye fans. Oh well...nobody's perfect! HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Comment: The TuneBand is very easy to use. I like the improved edging on the velcro armband-- it is less subject to snagging on other objects by accident, and the velcro grip feels more secure. Also, it seems the case fits more snugly on the band as well. The case for the phone has a pleasant feel, and I appreciate having the raised power button and volume buttons. It's easy to connect the power cord or earphones while the case is on, and I've been pleased that the automatic backlight adjustment works perfectly even with the phone in the case. I usually just leave the Velcro band on, even when I don't plan to wear my phone; it makes it easier to find in my backpack or gym bag, and it comes in handy for attaching my phone on the outside of a diaper bag or on the handle bar of a grocery cart--helps me keep my shopping list handy! The TuneBand gets high marks for convenience for me, and the sturdier design makes wearing it during a workout more secure. Thanks for a nicely improved product-- and for the terrific customer service, too!

Comment: ...I just worry about the sweat that may enter at the exposed areas around the bottom and top...not completely sealed for those who sweat a lot. Otherwise great. Never falls off.

Comment: I've gone through two different arm bands, and this is by far the best one. I weight lift, and the stretchy fabric works great. excellent product quality and even more excellent customer service!"
