1.) Love it!

I am really enjoying this product. I sweat a lot when I work-out and this armband stays in place and is very comfortable. I love the "cord keeper", it makes it nice and neat when not in use. It is a little aggravating to get my Nano out once in but I suppose that is a good thing. Great value!

2.) great

I looked at many other armbands and this was the best one. I have a Nike+ receiver and all the other armbands were not long enough to work. This is also great because it has a place to put my extra wire from my headphones. The plastic is a little tight to get the ipod in and out. I don't mind because the other one's I tried had so much plastic my ipod wouldn't even work. This is a great product. Shipping was so fast. 5 stars for me.


3.) The good stuff

i bought the tunebelt for my sister to use during runs w/ her new ipod and nike+. fits perfectly and doesnt loosen during runs. she loved the ability to tie her extra cord to the belt. It seems to be made of good material and she hasnt had any problems yet. :)

5.) Nice... but not for people with big arms

This was a gift for my boyfriend, who is an athlete, and it turned out that the band was too short for his arm. He liked it otherwise, but ended up not using it because it couldn't be safely closed around his arm. Too bad.

6.) Nice, but a couple minor issues

I like the design. It's easy to adjust, and the little flap for excess ear bud cord is a nice touch. Two issues that make it less than ideal: (1) The thick plastic makes it almost impossible to operate the iPod's controls. and (2) Inserting and removing the iPod aren't as easy as I'd like.

7.) Pretty good, but frustrating to remove ipod

This is a wonderful and well made armband. You'll love it unless you ever want to remove the ipod, which you have to do in order to charge it. So that's frustrating as heck. The plastic sticks so hard to the ipod, it's almost impossible to pull out and even worse if you have the ipod on a plastic case as well. Once I thought I was going to have to just tear the plastic apart to get it out. It finally let go, but my fingers were sore and I felt the need to walk away from it in between tries because I felt so frustrated in the process.

8.) Works good, not great

The 2 problems I encountered is, one its hard to adjust volume through clear plastic, and two a clip should have been designed for headphone wires, sometimes the wires get caught on branches ect. when you get to close, I ues it for hiking and it has a tendicey to get caught in the bush.

9.) Kinda poor quality

This item is made pretty much poorly. I really dont care cause I am not too fancy, but I dont know how much more will it last...

10.) Doesn't fit 2nd gen. nano

I received this item a couple days ago and am going to return it. I have an iPod Nano 2nd generation. The product's description said it fit the 2nd generations, but it is extremely difficult to get the iPod in there and 10x harder to get it out of the armband because the plastic sticks to the iPod face- the fit is so tight to begin with. The seller says there's a "trick" to getting it out, but I'd rather it be simple to get it in and out and not have to worry about mastering a trick. The "key pocket" is very small and thin..for a single key. The product is black, and it looks more gray in the picture. The only thing that seemed functional was the velcro part that goes around your arm. I was disappointed because after looking at armbands on Amazon for an hour or more, I chose this, and it doesn't fit. Maybe it's better to go to the mall and actually test out the product before buying it. The company is giving me a full refund, which is nice.

11.) Basically Useless
Reviewed by: Daniel Hodel Kona, Hawaii USA

Fine, I guess, if you go for a short walk. But if you run or sweat at all, the moisture comes right through the armband and does two things: (1) begins to destroy your ipod, and (2) makes it impossible to use the clickwheel through the plastic. It's also a bear to get the ipod out when it gets moist in there, which it does after 15 minutes of exercise.

12.) Awful!

Two major issues:
- The thick plastic makes it impossible to use the ipod controls.
- It is extremely difficult to get the ipod out of the armband because the plastic sticks to the front of the ipod.

Features of Tune Belt Sport Armband for iPod nano 5th generation (and 4th generation) - use WITH or WITHOUT Nike+ Receiver

Tune Belt's Sport Armband Plus for iPod nano 5G was designed to hold a fifth OR fourth generation iPod nano WITH or WITHOUT the Nike+ Receiver attached.

The armband is ultra slim and lightweight and packed with features providing unmatched comfort, convenience and protection including: a cord management flap to control and store the earphone cord; a hidden pocket to hold a key or money; a clear protective window cover with full navigational control; and a reflective logo for nighttime visibility.

To provide as much protection as possible during your workout rigors, an adjustable flap with two closing positions covers the entrance when the Nike+ Receiver is not used and covers the Nike+ Receiver when it is used and connected to the nano.

The recommended way to insert the nano is right side up when the Nike+ Receiver is not used (although you can insert it upside down too). You have to insert the nano upside down when Nike+ Receiver is used. Either way, the armband can be worn right side up, or upside down, whichever way makes it easier for you to read the screen when it is on your arm.

The armband is washable and adjusts to fit arms 9 to 17 inches. For larger arm sizes, an Armband Extender is available. See model EX3 which increases the maximum arm size by about 6.5 inches.

Color: Black

This armband also works for a 1st or 2nd generation iPod nano.

This item does not include any part of the actual Nike + iPod Sport Kit which is sold separately.
