Anyone find a good arm band for the Bionic?

Thanks HorsePony for the pics! I'm in the same boat being a competitive bodybuilder. All the arm bands I've had for my OG Droid would cut off circulation when I was working out. I had to keep readjusting the band as my workout progressed. I switched to a clip style holster for workouts but it can get in the way of some exercises. I usually wait for the 3rd party companies to come out with "cheap" versions of gear but I may have to splurge on this one. Thanks!

Back for a quick review of the armband. I ordered it on 9/22 (Thurs) mid-day and received it 9/24 (Sat) via USPS. It was shipped from Seattle, WA to Dayton, OH. Very quick turn around I believe. As far as the armband goes, your review did it justice. Its an excellent product! Does not slide down arm, fits with Incipio case on it, and strap feels secure. I have pretty large arms too. I have used it the past four days I have had it and I can not say I have had an issue at all. I am able to manage my runs easily in the workout, check to see how far I have gone, change songs ( I dont have wireless headphones ), etc. It just works great! Thanks for the suggestion on the armband! I was very close to buying one of those cheap ones off of amazon that have the plastic on the front. Very glad I did some research before I purchased it. Thanks again HorsePony!

My arms are about 15 inches and this armband does not cut circulation or feel harsh during workouts or runs. I have nothing but good things to say about it.

Hey Bucky!
Dude, SO glad that 1: my review helped someone out but, more importantly, 2: as everyone is different, I'm glad that my positive feedback on the armband translated to you equally as well! One man's trash is another man's treasure and all that...

But yeah, it's kinda freaky how this somewhat flimsy-looking armband ends up pretty much being the best one I've ever owned, for stability, security, and accessibility. Awesome, huh?

Yeah it is pretty awesome! Thats why I love fourms! It takes the error out on products that you are looking to buy. Thanks again, and hopefully this thread will help others out as well.

I called around too when I wanted to pick one up. The cheapest place to get it seems like its from the actual site. I even checked Ebay and Amazon before making the purchase directly from them.

Great minds must think alike cuz I did the same thing! LOL I found one on ebay for the same price as my local store. I might just suck it up & pay my local store. One question though....they had this for a few phones...I should get the iPhone one correct? I'm not sure if they have one for the X but if they do wouldn't that fit the best for the Bionic since it's basically the same size?

I got the one that showed the iphone

The wife and I are avoid runners and needed to find a solution for carrying our phones while running as we use the map my run app and use our phones for our music. She had the charge and I have the bionic. We were able to find that best buy had a universal arm band for Android phones. We were skeptical but the thingis awesome. Not sure it would work for you body building types.

Also, on a side note, the motorola Bluetooth headphones are phenomenal.
