Has anyone seen or currently use an armband or similar for listening to MP3's while working out? An armband that has a clear front part so you can slick on things and have button access would be ideal.
Damn waist holster has fallen onto the floor while running one too many times!
Think Ipod
I have found that if it fits the older generation Ipods...it fits the wizard. I use a Ipod case with mine. The only thing to watch for is that the headphone jacks somewhat line up. Otherwise you'll just have to make a few modifications.
I am looking for a good sport armband to keep my X10 while running. Looking for it, I found a couple of items that seems would fit well : a cheap chinese armband and the Nokia CP-402 ...My only doubt is: would it fit well???
What's your opinion about these items??
Anybody using a sport armband with X10??
If you check by dimensions, there's little room for error
Unless you are looking for a plastic molded holster, then any that fits an iphone will work. I was out looking for cases and whatnot and everyhting that fits the iphone, my x10 fit perfectly. Again unless it was a hard plastic mold type cases which obviously will not fit. WOnt be hard to find one if looking for one that fits an iphone, as there is a million an 1 accessories for the dumb iphone.
using one meant to have around neck but instead of that i tied it on my pants belt loop thing so if i happen to drop my phone it will stop at knee height, has saved my phone twice.

I thought it too. Maybe I was unlucky with the model, but I tried a PURE Arm Band that was made for Iphone and it was ABSOLUTELY impossible to fit the X10 in it! The aperture was just too little...
In any case I think I'll look for an Iphone Armband and hope that it fits well!
Thank you all!
I am looking for one too. Since the Pure didn't fit, I am quite anxious to buy one online. So a proven armband would be nice
Today arrived the Sport Armband I ordered from China trough Ebay (
Look for Gym Sport ArmBand Case Holder for Apple iPhone 3G 3GS).
The building quality is poor,but the materials seems, on the opposite, to be quite good. The X10 perfectly fits inside the pouch and,despite the top is open,I don't risk to loose my phone.
What more? It costed me only 2.99 bucks!

Hmm, well. It does not sound that bad. But it would be nice with a picture of the armband, if possible?

Any news on this?
anyone got lucky and found an armband?
Photo!
Sorry for the hated Iphone inside. After a long period using it I can confirm that it perfectly fits the device (despite being open on the top) and that it is great for running!
ps I posted a Bonamart picture, but if you look on ebay it is plenty of similar items!

yes and you can close it at the top
Exactly!
As you saw it seems there are several versions of the same item, with few differences, sold by several sellers. The whole building quality is middle-low but I never had problems using it.
I preferred to buy the open one, since I was not sure it would fit with the closed top. Anyway, despite being open on the top, it is so tight that the X10 will never slip up!
I found some on ebay. Out of the few the list, there is one made by Motorola, and it's rated "Top-rated Seller."
X10 Sport Armband
Stupid forum rules ... I can't post links.
ebay search: Sport Armband for HTC HD2 Leo EVO 4G Sony Ericsson X10
Just picked this one up on ebay. Hope it fits well ... The x10 is a great phone, but a little bit on the heavy side when jogging My old Nokia Xpress Music 5310 was better that way ... Let me know if anybody wants to know how it is.

i use the arm strap from the krusell multidapt system - and it fits really well and hold the phone real tight - the krusell multidapt system is really worth its money

Hi. I got it today. Here is a picture (sorry about the flash backfire).
It doesnt close at the top, but it doesn't have to: It fits fine, so I can hold it up-side-down and shake it. It doesn't fall out.
Also, there is a small pocket on the side where you can put away any extra headphone-cable. This was a nice feature. The quality looks overall OK.
Here is the not-so-OK-part: The plastic in front is stiff and lumpy, so the touch is kinda "so-so". Maybe this will get better after some use (maybe the plastic even out), but if you're planing on using the touchscreen alot while it's inside the case, this isn't the case for you.
I'm just gonna use it for music playback while jogging, so for me it's perfect! (7/10)
this is what i've been using. it's a tight fit but the material is stretchy and is able to fit the x10 securely. i bought it last summer for about $10-$15. it doesn't feature a headphone out opening but i use my mw600 bluetooth headphones so i don't need one. it has grip pads on the inside (not shown) to prevent it from sliding down your arm and an adjustable strap.
I got one of these for Christmas and love it. No, I'm not affiliated with the company.

Great way to keep fingerprints off your shiny screen.
Doesn't look like it has a very fine point which would be the only reason I would want a stylus, for more precision... When I'm trying to grab something my steak fries are too big for..
It's got a domed tip that is squishy, so it's as precise as you want depending on pressure. The whiteboard app is the only thing I've ever seen that took advantage of a fine point and it works perfectly.
I iPad Touch came with a similar stylus. Works great. My wife got some from Taiwan that have angled rubber ends for about $0.50 a piece. They work pretty good too. Similar to an pencil eraser.
So far I haven't needed on on the G-Tab and I've got "huge" fingers.
Try it with multi memo
I have one and have used it, briefly, with an app called multi-memo for taking notes.
Those Chinese ones are so cheap. They are too light and you have to drag them across the screen minimizing accuracy. I bought it for Stickdraw, def. Not worth it. I think i'll try this one.
Is it kind of heavy or really light? I want one that's heavy like a pen.
The stylus actually has some weight to it and does indeed feel like holding a real pen, it looks and feels like a quality handwriting implement. You'd have to really work to damage the metal casing, it remains to be seen how durable the rubber dome tip will be.
Took me a few minutes to get used to the squidgy, bulbous tip but then I was navigating around, playing games with it and testing my handwriting in a paint-mode note in 'Note Everything'. If only I could find a notepad application with good handwriting recognition*, I'd be in hog heaven...
* One that actually recognizes properly formed characters, not abstract sets of strokes
I bought one of those cheap Chinese ones (3 pack for $6) and was really disappointed. Then I looked online for ways to make your own. I was familiar with using those antistatic bags from hard drives and computer components, but then noticed one method that uses a common household sponge.
I took an old metal pen I had that I really liked, but didn't have ink anymore and took the tip off. I then cut off a small cube of a new sponge (with my wife's permission) and "screwed" it into the spot where the metal tip was on the pen. Worked like a charm.
I tried it on everything from my tablet to my iPod and my phone and it worked great on everything. I playd around with the updated tablet optimized version of Autodesk Sketchbook Express and it worked out great!
There are lots of videos on YouTube of how to make them, but using a metal pen seems to be what looks best. Some of the others look terrible.
Here's a picture, in case anyone is curious. I may get a pack of a different color of sponges because I don't like yellow, but that's all my wife had at the house when I did this project.
I'm also going to retrofit those crappy Chinese styluses I got, as they have metal housings. Should work the same as the pen did. Just need to rip off the rubber heads and maybe drill out the insides to get the sponge to fit and make contact with the housing.
So twice now I've brought armband, once off Ebay and once off Cellphoneshop.net and neither of them fit. ebay one won't fit at all, the cellphoneshop.net one barely barely fit with no case on, but the cover don't really close properly and the headphone jack hole is on the wrong side!
Anyone know a good jogging armband with clear face cover that will fit the EVO 3D? preferably with a TPU case on.
Is so frustrating when seller advertise something as for our phone and its actually some generic crap!
I'll throw this out there in case it ends up working out for your. I used to try finding clear cases and arm bands but they never really worked very well and I ended up prefering the phone near my waist and running my headphones inside the back of my shirt.
It works great for my uses. I love it for jogging/working out/shooting around (basketball).
SPIbelt sells jogging belts, bands, etc.
http://www.spibelt.com/spibelt.php
http://store.spibelt.com/Waterresistantspibelt-p/7bl-a001-001-waterres.htm
It does not have a clear face. It's just a slim water resistant pouch/belt that you can order to fit your phone. I just specfied "pouch for HTC EVO" when I ordered mine.
Again it does not have a clear face and I wouldn't even say it's "easily accessible". But for holding your phone securely while being very active (I use it for jogging, lifting and shoot arounds) it is very secure. I strap it around my waist and you forget it's there.
Just thought I would throw it out.

I went through the same PITA.
Finally found this one which fits beautifully... the little holes for the headphones can be a awkward depending on your plug style/size, but other than that it is the best I've found:

I'm coming to the conclusion i need to buy the expensive armband also, but I was worry they are just more expensive version of the cheap stuff too.
Can you please let me know if the iarmbands one would work with a TPU case on? if it can then it would be perfect. as far as the headphone holes goes i'm not TOO concern, my headphones have very slim jack, and worse come to worse i can always enlarge the hole a little, as long as its in the right general location

Arkon's XL-Armband fits the Sensation. I have one with the Incipio NGP case and it fits with the case on.
We designed the armband to fit most phones with screen sizes from 3.7" - 4.3". I've tested it with the Sensation as seen above, Thunderbolt (with TPU case), Droid 3, Droid X 2 and a couple others and they fit.

Pics with the EVO 3D:
It fits a naked EVO 3D nicely, I'd say it would probably fit with a TPU case.
Got my case from iArmband today and I'mot impressed at all. The holes don't line up at all for the headphone jack, it's more of a generic size then specifically for the 3D and the arm strap is way too short.
Edit... So I received an email from iArmbands about my issues with this item. They apologized for the inconvenience and issued a full refund. They also told me to go ahead and keep the product as well...pretty outstanding customer service if you ask me.
Greets All, I have been doing quite a bit of searches, but I havent been able to find a Phone case I bought of my Honor Note 8, it would fit the Mate 20x, so I am seeing if anyone might have run across anything like this, or if you do if you could let me know. The last time I picked it up from Amazon, but its no longer available. Here is what it looks like:

I just received this today and it fits perfectly with the Huawei kickstand case. I bought a couple of other cases but this one fits the best so far so those other ones are going back.
https://www.amazon.com/Yuzihan-Holster-iPhone-Defender-Battery/dp/B07FYBZ3RT
Here's more pics
Nice But I am also looking for the swivel clip. I just ordered two from amazon we'll see if they will be big enough. I already have a leather one thats horizontal except the belt clip is a pain to get on my pants. I'll post the ones coming in if they work.
I found a few that I wanted to share with everyone in case anyone is interested:
This Case:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HDCTWQ9/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Will work with no case, the clear case Huawei provides, and works with the following case:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dooqi-Luxu...var=532520095938&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
And possibly my guess and slim design case.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HCL6M2C/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
This one works without a case or the clear one provided by huawei, will not work with thick or rugged cases.

I understand that, but I bought them and they do work, if you'd like I'll post pics.
thank you for the clarification I wasn't sure if you were simply recommending these after having done some research or whether you had actually tried your phone in some of them. I assume then that the flap has some flexibility to permit the slightly longer length of this phone.

No Problem, I wouldn't have posted them if I didnt try them. And yes there is a little play with the flap. I do have two more leather horizontal cases that work also, but dont have swivel belt clips and I have for emergencies when the belt clips break on the swivel ones. I'm pretty rough on them.
I just bought this

And I just bought my Mate 20 X.
All of them should arrive next week. At that point, I'll let you know how everything fits with pictures and words and everything in between (...is there anything in between?).
I found a horizontal leather belt holster in which the Mate 20X fits really well (even with a case on the phone).
Here's my setup.
