VUP Wristband Phone Holder, 360° Rotatable Forearm Armband for iPhone 15/14/13/Pro Max/Pro/Mini/12/11/SE 2020/Xs/XR/X/8/7/Plus, Fits All 4-6.7 Inch Smartphones (Black-Small)

I bought the band to mow lawn hands-free in as I listen to music on my iPhone. I have a larger iPhone - the 8 Plus, I believe - it's about the same size as the old Samsung Galaxies. I wondered how the band would work out when I was reviewing many other bands. I actually purchased another prior to this one, and fully regret the buy. But this one is EXCELLENT! Works perfectly! I love that band is adjustable, so I can assure a sure grip around my arm as I start moving - and is also sturdy/strong enough to keep from moving or slipping around as I work. It is truly excellent! Even with such a large iPhone. I've used this band all summer and I can't say enough about how nice it has been to enjoy my music while I work with a large phone resting well and still on my arm. I am able to swipe and press in commands easily, as the face of my phone is not covered by the band in any way. And!!! my phone can be turned in every single direction! Which helps when I get an occasional phone call. Or want to see anything on my screen. Of course, I'm just walking (not running) as I mow, so I'm not sure how the band does with excessive activity. But I also bend over to pick up branches, to add gas to the mower, etc. UPDATE: It is now 3 years later. I continue to mow with this band on my arm. It's as durable as the first year I used it. I can walk, run, garden, weed eat with it for 3 years now, and it continues to hold steady. The fit is tight. The velcro is strong. This is a quality product!!

This VUP wristband phone holder is fantastic. I use it for my 5 mile walk on my 6.8' smartphone. I would much rather have a phone I can easily see immediately on my wrist than have it bouncing around in my pocket and you have to fumble around to get it out. It is very comfortable, well made, and very simple to put on. The velcro strap will easily fit any size wrist from very small to very large. The 360 degree rotation feature works great too. The stretchy straps that hold the phone should accomodate any size phone and are very secure. It also could be used for bike riding for the same purpose. Again, this phone holder is for your WRIST and not your bicep area. I am EXTREMELY happy with this product!!!

Works great for runs

I mainly use this for work since it's required for me to wear dress pants, and you know how small those pockets can be especially if you own/use a 6inch phone. Made a compromise with my boss to let me use this as it's more efficient than having to grab my work phone out of pocket each time I want to make a transaction or look up work related content on a regular basis As stated, fits 6inch phones. It's better if you have a 5inch phone as there's less weight and is less bulky, but both work nevertheless. Even without the phone strapped on, it looks very futuristic. The bands work very well in securing your phone even when you do a lot of physical activity with it When jogging and listen to music, I recommended using a wireless headset as the travel distance for a wired headset may be a nuisance, as the cord will dangle due to the travel distance from your ear to your wrist. There's also a possibility of you tugging on the cord; pulling the headset off your head. An other alternative is to use the phone speakers if it's loud enough and don't care what other people think of you. Rotation mechanism is very snappy and stays in place once you turn it to the angle you want. The armband is open faced. Used to own a sweat wristband one with a plastic cover, and the tactile feedback was not as great having to apply extra pressure for the touch screen especially while swiping. Also if you have a fingerprint reader on front, it is usable compared to the plastic cover variety. If you have a touch sensor in back, unfortunately you are not able to use it or at least not as easy access to it (even in the vertical position) as the band sometimes get in the way. Since your phone is strapped onto your wrist anyway, I tend to turn off all passwords when it's on the phone is on my wrist for convenience. If you own a smart phone with good facial recognition/iris scan, best to use those bio-metric unlocks instead A random stranger is not able to grab your phone forcefully without you noticing as the bands are very secure providing some resistance when tugged on. If they stealthy pull away the top and bottom bands off while you're dozing off then that's another story. I wouldn't have these on in public transit especially when going through shady neighborhoods just in case (unless you have a long sleeve shirt or jacket on) Unlike a fitness or sports watch, you have full access to your phone and its apps as well as a large screen, so you don't have to squint when viewing notifications on the fly. The band itself is very comfortable and secure with very strong Velcro. Unlike the sweatband armband it's comfortable in hot weather Very convenient to have around as both hands are free while doing activities with less travel distance to access your phone. With focused gaming apps that requires two handed controls, best to take off the phone entirely especially if you want to go for the high score. Also if you're typing a essay on your phone (for some reason) it may also be faster just to take the phone off if you're in a hurry and have short term memory loss. Best way around this is text-to-speech (unless you're insecure talking to your phone in public or have confidential information you don't' want leaked). For all other one hand applications it works well. Overall very impressed, and helps keep my pockets open for other things/accessories

The item is as described and is sturdy - I use it with a Pixel 7. As an average sized female, I find the item waaaay too big for my wrist. I have tried turning it adjacent to my wrist which is better for the fit along my arm, but I tend to bang my phone on things when turned this way as it juts out from my arm quite a bit. When I have my phone aligned along my arm, I find that the phone tends to pinch my wrist where it meets my hand. So the item is functional and a good idea, it just doesn't work for me and my somewhat small wrists.

This thing is so helpful and convenient. When I'm on the track, I listen to music or podcasts on my phone when walking, it keeps my hands free, yet I can easily touch my phone if taking a call, or changing what im listening to. Everything right there on my wrist. Love it!

I was looking for a holder to wear to the gym so I didn't need to hold my phone constantly while tracking my workout. so easy to do reps, time your breaks and keep moving without having to take your phone in and out of your pocket or leave it sitting someplace you might forget.

I have small wrists but this is so painful it is unbearable. The band either is too tight or if I loosen it, it hurts my wrist from my phone rubbing into it.
