11. This works great for my runs

    Posted by Brooke on 23rd Sep 2015

    This works great for my runs. I can finally have my phone on me without either having to hold it or find a way to rig it into the band of my running shorts. It's really comfortable and I barely notice it's there at all.

12. Fits like a glove

    Posted by Amazon Customer on 10th Aug 2015

    So my S5 slides in this thing like you wouldn't believe. It truly was designed for it and that is nice. My only challenge is getting the phone back out after I run. It is both a good and bad thing I guess. I am able to use the touch screen through the clear front which is nice so i can switch between apps without needing to remove the phone.

13. Husband loves it!

    Posted by Lianne Tang on 10th Aug 2015

    Bought it so that my husband can exercise with his Samsung Galaxy S5. He is 6'2 and fits perfectly. It also fits me (4'10) perfectly after adjustment. So no worries about it being too loose or too tight.

14. Galaxy S5 Armband

    Posted by Alex L. on 10th Aug 2015

    ust recently switched from an iPhone 4s to a Galaxy S5 and so far there haven't been a plethora of options to choose from in regards to purchasing armbands. Because I can't run without music, I decided to try out Gear Beast since they were one of the first to produce an arm band for the brand new Galaxy S5. Overall I like the look and the feel. The material it is made out of is comfortable and the actual armband fits nicely around my arm. A bit of background info: I'm a 21 yo male without very large arms so I can't comment on how they fit people who have very large or very small arms, but the fit is perfect for people with normal sized arms. Some reviews on here have stated complaints about the velcro no longer sticking the way it should, but I've yet to encounter this problem one month into using it. As another reviewer has suggested, you might have a bit of a problem removing your phone if you have a screen protector on. When I ordered my phone I also ordered a screen protector on amazon to prevent scratches and such. For some reason the clear part of the armband sticks to the screen protector so you could struggle a bit trying to get your phone out after a run. My only advice to resolving this is to use your fingers to create a separation between the two before sliding out your phone; this or invest in a decent screen protector (I bought a pretty cheap one). I feel like I am already writing too much for this so I'll just make a quick list of pros and cons below.
    
    Pros:
    Feels comfortable and fits perfectly.
    Comes with a little key pouch (super convenient).
    Had a small tear in my armband, but after emailing them their customer support got back to me within an hour and sent a replacement with no questions asked and for no additional charge. AWESOME!
    
    Cons:
    Some sweat can get through the back after a heavy workout (happens with a lot of armbands though)
    Clear film on armband can stick to screen protector making it annoying to get the phone out.
    Probably won't fit with a case on your phone so you'll have to take it off and put it back each time you use the armband (not really a big deal anyway since the phone is already large enough).

15. Great armband and an awesome price!

    This is the 3rd band I have bought (first one was for smaller phone, 2nd was for my wife) and they work great. The Velcro on my first band lasted for almost 2 years and the band itself was in great shape, just a little too small for the newer phones. This model however, holds my S6 perfectly and does the job for way less than any band I would buy in the store.

16. Samsung Galaxy S5 Armband

    Posted by Chris Scheer on 10th Aug 2015

    The armband works great. I use it while running, of course, but I also use it while mowing, and doing other housework.
    Great product!

18. Great armband!

    I love my new gear beast arm band! Besides the color which is fabulous- it fits very well on my upper arm. I love to wear it when I run or work out at the gym.

19. Beautifully stitched top quality gym band. I love it!,

    Posted by John Ryan on 23rd Dec 2014

    This is a top quality neoprene arm band for your iPhone 6 or Samsung Galaxy phone. It even has a little pocket for your gym key!
    
    As is typical of “Gear Beast” stuff, the neoprene really is very thick, well made and using top quality materials. This arm band has a 10 inch long with a a generous 2 inches wide band to go around your upper arm with a wide strip of velcro and a fixing tab at the end.
    
    As already said, the “build quality” is great with thick material and all edges stitched with an additional hem. Worth noting, the hole you push the “band” through (to loop back and velcro tight to your arm) is reinforced with a tough plastic edge which is also stitched into the arm band. This thing is not going to fall apart on you - even after several months pushing weights at the gym.
    
    Rest assured, if you’ve got huge biceps, you get an additional 6 inch extender (again with a tough plastic loop), so even if you’ve got upper arms like Arnie - this will still fit perfectly.
    
    In terms of phone, it fitted beautifully well (and snug) with my standard size iPhone 6 (although obviously it won’t be big enough for the 5.5 inch iPhone 6 Plus. I even used it with a Gear Beast ClearJelly case (the bumper variety) and it still fitted perfectly. Oh yes, and I love the nice touch - the small locker key - it’s otherwise a pain to pin the key to my towel - and a bigger pain when I thought I’d lost the key.
    
    In terms of functionality - you’ll find the “touch ID” on the iPhone doesn’t work, but you can unlock your phone using the passcode. Otherwise the phone works as expected, and is beautifully protected behind a thick (but transparent) screen cover. You also have the option of feeding in a headphone cable through the two holes in the base of the sleeve (or like me) put the phone in upside down. Either way you can use the case with a cabled pair of headphones.
    
    Finally - it will work with any smartphone up to 4.7 inches in size including:-
    
    * iPhone 6 (standard 4.7 inch size)
    * Samsung Galaxy S5, S4 and S3
    * HTC Sensational XL (4.7 inch)
    * Google Nexus 5
    * HTC Vivid
    * etc etc etc
    
    What’s good about it
    ----------------------------
    * Excellent design and top quality build (as you’d expect from Gear Beast)
    * Extender for the body builders among us
    * Locker key pocket a great bonus (I love this!)
    * Good all round protection for my device in the gym
    
    What’s not so good
    --------------------------
    I honestly can’t find fault with this, and scanning through the other reviews - neither can anyone else!
    
    Conclusion
    ---------------
    Beautifully stitched top quality gym band. I love it!
    

20. This is a great Armband for the price

    This is a great Armband for the price. Has a place for your key and what a great deal. Fits my Samsung Galaxy S5 perfectly.
