Customer Review: Needs two prongs on strap adjuster
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought it for my iPod Nano, haven't actually used it while working out yet. I'm petite, and about 115lbs, my arms are not super skinny but the belt is just too big. The velcro needs to be a lot longer because even if it's tied snuggly, there's extra strap bulging. The strap belt needs to have 2 prongs that would allow the length of the strap to be adjusted (it only have 1 and doesn't help much). I hope it holds when i actually use it. Also, the actual holder of the Nano is made of rubber and you just slip the iPod in. I have a feeling that after a long time of using it, it will stretch and your iPod have a risk of falling out. =(.Customer Review: It does what it is designed to do
Summary: 4 Stars
For this price, you can't really complain about the Sports Sleeve. The sleeve itself is soft and easy to slide on or off. The band is of okay quality, not extra-heavy duty or anything, but definitely functional. The velcro is effective at holding the strap snug, and it hasn't slid off of my arm yet. I wear this to work out about 6 days a week and haven't had any issues that I would warn others about. One thing that may or may not become a problem later on is where the strap slips through the sleeve. There doesn't seem to be any type of reinforcement in the area, so it may tear. It hasn't yet, but it is something to look out for.Customer Review: Perfect -- all accessories should work this well
Summary: 5 Stars
This thing simply does what it's supposed to do and what it claims to do (which, alas, is so much more than can be said for so many gadget add-ons). Perfect fit on the Nano, as others have pointed out, they even include the little screen protector strip which adds protection where it really counts. Buttons and ports are easily accessible, the strap is comfy to wear and easy to get on.
And best of all, of course, the price is exactly right. Apple really should just include something like this with the Nano to begin with -- but at least Belkin's offering is of a design and quality to match what it's made to enclose.
Customer Review: Like it a lot!
Summary: 4 Stars
This product is really great. It protects the ipod very well, and the screen protector is very nice, a lot of the other ones I was looking at didn't have this feature. The arm band is easy to remove and put back on. I have tiny arms but it still works sufficiently and doesn't slide down when I run. The only thing is that I have a 2nd generation nano and the hold button opening is not the exact correct size. It is still accesssible and it works fine for me. I would definitely recommend this product if you are looking for something to protect your nano all the time with the ability to use it when working out.Customer Review: mostly good, could use some improvement
Summary: 4 Stars
I've been pretty happy with this product, especially considering the price. My only qualm with it is that the elastic has started to loosen slightly after about a month of consistent wear. As another reviewer mentioned, it's hard to stick your earbud and cable cords into your Nano because the rubber on the bottom gets in the way. However, I just took a pair of scissors and cut a tiny bit away from the slits and it works just fine. When I'm not using the armband for running, I just slip it off, leaving the rubber case around my Nano to protect it. All in all, it's not built to last forever, but it's decent.
