Product Description
E Tronic Edge Phone Holder for Running - Premium Electronic Accessories
The ideal gift for the runner in your life, our arm phone holder for running makes a great gadget for the one who doesn't leave home without their smartphone.
- Premium Material - Lightweight, Durable, Breathable material.
- Securely - The reflective logo increases visibility with a zipper pocket.
- Comfortable - Made with sweatproof, breathable fabric, our phone armbands are a universal fit.
- Compatible - Compatible with all smartphone sizes to store your cell phone no matter the size (2" to 7").
Easy To Use Zipper & Two Headphone Holes
On the side of the sleeve, we've included an easy to use zipper which allows you to insert your phone with little effort. This keeps your phone snug and securely inside the pocket while you're doing physical activity. No matter how vigorous the workout or run maybe, you can be assured that your phone will stay safe.
To accommodate the various smartphone designs and inputs, we've designed our armband sleeve to have two perfectly placed headphone holes on the inside of the pocket. This also means that if you prefer wireless headphones then these headphone slots won't affect the appearance of your armband.
How to Choose Your Size of Sleeve
1. Measure your biceps circumference.
- Measure from the widest point
- Having someone to help you would make it easier
- Tip: Don't have a measuring tape? Use a string to wrap around your arm, then place the string along a ruler to measure the length giving you the circumference of your arm.
2. Select your measurement in the chart (horizontally)
3. Determine your Armband Sleeve size (selected column is your result)
Note: You do not need to worry about your phone size, all smartphones fit in our super wide zipper pocket.

Durable & Sweat-ResistantMade with sweat-wicking, breathable fabric, our phone armbands for running hug your arm for a secure grip without feeling too tight. A quick-drying blend of nylon (85%) and spandex (15%) means the armband is 100% water-resistant and sweatproof. |

My only complaint is that it tends to shift a little when wearing a nylon like jacket during the rain and colder temps. But it’s still my go to and will remain that way. It’s just about perfect.
Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2024
My only complaint is that it tends to shift a little when wearing a nylon like jacket during the rain and colder temps. But it’s still my go to and will remain that way. It’s just about perfect.
1) When I bought a second one (because I kept misplacing the first one, so I wanted to have a backup), I ordered the same size in a different color, grey, and found that the second one wasn’t as tight of a fit as the first one, black, so the weight of the phone caused it to slide down to the underside of my arm. I want my phone tight against my arm when I’m running, so this was not a great feeling.
2) After about 3 years, the zipper started splitting pretty regularly. It doesn’t happen in the middle of a run, it happens when I am zipping it up. So I often times have to unzip and re-zip several times until it doesn’t split - the. I know it will hold for the entire run. Not a huge deal, mostly just annoying. And to be fair, for how much use I got out of it, the zipper actually lasted pretty long.
I’m overall satisfied with it, so now that I’m ready to replace it (because of the zipper) I’m going with this same brand again (and making sure to order the black one!)
My arm measures as follows: 12" above the bicep, 13" (and growing, baby!) at the center of the bicep, and 11" below the bicep. You don't want this band right up in your armpit, and you don't want it chafing your inner-elbow, so that area surrounding the bicep is the sweet spot.
So based on that 12-13" measurment I ordered a Medium per the size chart image, which the seller tells me is THE correct way to judge. The band arrived 2 hours before I was set to run a public 5k race, so it got an immediate test drive. Firstly, the material feels great, it isn't itchy or uncomfortable but it DOES soak up sweat and B.O. like nobody's business, so be ready for a lot of washing. However, the actual issue came when within a couple minutes my arm was feeling tingly and like it was falling asleep. The band wasn't uncomfortably TIGHT, just snug enough to cut off blood. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy Alpha, which is thinner than all newer models of Galaxy and iPhone, so it's not as if the bulk was pressing into my arm.
So I contacted the seller afterwards and explained my issue, and ended up with a Large in my hands a few days later. I believe the Large is supposed to start at about 13.75", but it just seemed like the Medium was too snug to be comfortable or good for my circulation. You'll see in my photo that the Large is a full inch wider than the Medium (1/2" when laid flat), and that's where *I* am running into trouble: having run with the large now it's clear that it's just slightly too BIG. If the large was literally a half inch bigger than the Med rather than a full inch then it would be perfect. So with my current 12-13-11 arms, I'm in a grey area. Luckily my goal is to beef up a little, so I'm hoping that in a couple months the Large will fit me just right. Regardless, it's still disappointing that I can't really comfortably use either size now.
The seller is well deserving of 5 stars; their customer service and followthrough is outstanding, and they make a great product. Yes, I would be a lot happier if that Large was a half-inch smaller, but the reality is this arm band has no straps or pullstrings or anything: it's not designed to be customized in that way. So yes, a little disappointed in that sizing no man's land, and I'd be interested to know if the same 1" gap exists between the Small and Medium. Just be aware of your exact arm measurments, trust the size chart over the wildly-fluctuating reviews (except for mine of course, I always speak the truth whereas the statue across from me always lies), and buy with confidence knowing that the seller will 100% work with you to make things right if in fact you are unhappy or run into similar size problems.

REASON FOR -1 STAR: The material feels fantastic, is soft, and doesn't get "grime" on it when you sweat and put it to good use. That's a great thing but also has a draw-back. Even with a properly fitting unit, it still tends to slide down my bicep a bit. I actually tried taking thread-and-needle to it and sowing a little taper into the seem and it really is just the material combined with the impact of running. Honestly, if I was doing yard work, lifting weights, or on a machine at the gym, I doubt I'd have any of these issues. As I got this primarily for running, I took a star off due to this issue.
REASON FOR ANOTHER -1 STAR: That zipper, man. It's just too small. I actually can get the phone on if I put it in sideways (meaning rotated 90 degrees from how it's suppose to sit). You turn basically get three corners of the phone in the pocket and use the elasticity in the spandex material to "walk it into the pocket" in the correct orientation. Not perfect, but it works. Because it works it doesn't make sense to ding it too much, especially since I'm putting a large device inside, but it is a bit of a hassle.
NOT DEDUCTING A STAR, BUT BUYER SHOULD BE AWARE: This is NOT a ding on the product because if you're purchasing this sort of thing you should just be aware of the basic form-function, but just keep in mind that you can't access the screen while it's in a pocket (obviously). That's going to be true of ANY device like this, but since it's so difficult to get the phone in-and-out of the zipper, the inaccessibility to the device is more pronounced if I happen to get a call while out for a run. If you had an iWatch or something like that, this probably wouldn't be an issue.
Overall, still pretty happy with the product. Worth the buy.
===ORIGINAL REVIEW, BELOW===
I got my phone armband today and the material and quality seems extremely good. The zipper is smooth and I suspect it will last quite a while.
Unfortunately, the unit is incredibly small. As an engineer, I tend to get a bit obsessive over measurements so I measured my arm at 13 inches at its widest. When I got the sleeve, the inside dimension appeared only 9” which would mean the material would need to “grow” an additional 5”. It definitely does not.
It’s worth noting that my phone definitely does not fit in this sleeve (iPhone 8+), but due to the unit not even fitting around my arm it’s a bit of a non-issue.
Reviews for customer service appear to be outstanding, so I will update this review as I get the issue resolved. The quality is great and the material is very comfortable, so I hope things work out. Just be aware that you may need to “go up a size” when ordering. I’m even considering going up two sizes due to the extreme degree to which the sizing was off.

NOT DEDUCTING A STAR, BUT BUYER SHOULD BE AWARE: This is NOT a ding on the product because if you're purchasing this sort of thing you should just be aware of the basic form-function, but just keep in mind that you can't access the screen while it's in a pocket (obviously). That's going to be true of ANY device like this, but since it's so difficult to get the phone in-and-out of the zipper, the inaccessibility to the device is more pronounced if I happen to get a call while out for a run. If you had an iWatch or something like that, this probably wouldn't be an issue.
Overall, still pretty happy with the product. Worth the buy.
===ORIGINAL REVIEW, BELOW===
I got my phone armband today and the material and quality seems extremely good. The zipper is smooth and I suspect it will last quite a while.
Unfortunately, the unit is incredibly small. As an engineer, I tend to get a bit obsessive over measurements so I measured my arm at 13 inches at its widest. When I got the sleeve, the inside dimension appeared only 9” which would mean the material would need to “grow” an additional 5”. It definitely does not.
It’s worth noting that my phone definitely does not fit in this sleeve (iPhone 8+), but due to the unit not even fitting around my arm it’s a bit of a non-issue.
Reviews for customer service appear to be outstanding, so I will update this review as I get the issue resolved. The quality is great and the material is very comfortable, so I hope things work out. Just be aware that you may need to “go up a size” when ordering. I’m even considering going up two sizes due to the extreme degree to which the sizing was off.

The zipper has managed to keep my phone secure for 10km+ runs without any issue although occasional readjustment of the sleeve will be necessary but really not a big deal.
The material is lightweight and comfortable so I haven't run into any chaffing or rashes.
Overall, good product, good price; if you're looking for a phone holder for working out, look no further.
