Droid X Armband???

[wuxgieb]

Tune Belt just came out with a new armband that's a little bit bigger (AB84). I've got a hard case on my Droid X, and it fits well in this armband. I sweat a lot, and sweat tends to creep in around the edges of the armband, so I wrap my phone in a plastic sandwich baggie, and it still fits nicely in the AB84. I guess it's personal opinion, but for me the plastic cover of the armband doesn't affect visibility that much.

Hey guys i created an account to spread the word about the spibelt. i was looking for something to carry my brick of a phone (droid x) while i exercised and somehow stumbled across the spibelt. took it for a run today while using cardiotrainer and it was freakin awesome. there was no movement and volume buttons were still easily accessible.

anyone looking to go on runs/bike rides/hikes/jumproping/ anything! with a big smart phone should try the spibelt.


ps. if you sweat alot like me, they have a water resistant model which i got. after running today in hot weather i took my phone out and there was no moisture at all.

i kno this may sound like a fake infomercial line but seriously the spibelt is pretty awesome...just tryin to help!!!!


update* i just realized i didnt even tell you what the spibelt is. its an elastic belt that you wear with a pouch that stretches to hold items while your running. created by a marathon runner i believe. like a fannypack but more badass.

Mouten... which model of spibelt did you get? I went on that site and there are lots of them on there... which one is waterproof and fits the DX?

[mouten57]

Beka,

I got the water resistant model. Its about 24 dollars I believe.

COOL! After spending the last 20 minutes or so reading online reviews, I just ordered the water resistant one about 5 minutes ago! My husband has been on a health/exercise kick lately and is doing a lot of working out and walking/jogging. He uses his phone for music and CardioTrainer/GPS.

Just last week he was caught in a sudden downpour and had to try to shield his DX while running back to the car. He doesn't like armbands, so he's been putting his phone in the pocket of his workout shorts, but then the one side is weighed down. I think this will work so well for him!

He has also been doing some smaller races (2k-4k) so I think this would be great for his phone, ID, and car key!




I can't wait to surprise him with it!

"Honey! I got you a fanny pack!"

LOL!!!!

(Thank you so much for the "infomercial"... When you know a good product, it's important to share!)

Haha yes i think this will be perfect for him too. Im so happy that u found my post useful. I spent hours looking fors omething to hold my x and I finally found this thing. The coolest thing is when u put it on you forget that its there because its so comfortable.

A head's up for anyone else... I did a coupon code search for the Spibelt... I found a code for 15% off (which came to $3.60 savings on the $24 belt). And the 7-day shipping was free, so I paid $20 and change for it!

Promised to get back to you when I received my Armpocket Xtreme i30.
The Droid X fits perfectly, and it doesn't slide on the arm (they have 2 strap sizes). There is plenty of room inside it, and it does not look bulky at all.
It's water/sweat resistant. I've used it a couple of times, and like their other models, they are so extremely comfortable, that you don't even feel it's on your arm.
They made a big deal about it at the Seattle Rock 'n Roll marathon expo last week. The price was $34.95, which is not bad - the last armband I bought from them (for my iPhone), has lasted a year so far. Found a free shipping coupon code, EARTH11

I have the same as xiphonefan and like it. One complaint I have is the headset jack on my Droid X is on the top of the phone but the slot they have for it is at the bottom of the case. No big issue just close the double zippers around the headphones at the top.
