Customer Reviews

Best armband available for iPod classic.
It's a shame that there aren't more armbands available for iPod classics. However, if you're looking for a good quality case at a reasonable price, then you've found the right product.

The Griffin Streamline Armband allows you to carry your iPod classic securely when you are working out or just going for a run. Thus far, I've had no problems with it, and I use it on an almost daily basis. It feels secure no matter what I happen to be doing and is easily adjustable to fit the average person's arm.

I did my research for some time before finally deciding on this particular armband. There were some reviews that the iPod is almost impossible to get out once you've been put it inside, but I found that true only the first few times I used it. There is a particular trick to get the iPod to easily come out (lift up the plastic cover away from the iPod and it will slide out easily), and the iPod will still remain secure. Also, there were some who argued that the touch pad controls are very difficult to access when it is in its case. This is also true until you learn the tricks on how to use it. It may prove difficult at first, but the amount of pressure needed is eventually found. I can browse through my playlists and the like without too many problems.

No one is saying that this armband is perfect, but then again, show me something that is. However, if you're looking for quality and a fair price, then you've found what you're looking for.

Durable but VERY hard to work ipod controls
I completely agree that this carrier is very durable and secure. However, the major complaint I have is that it's extremely difficult to work the click wheel for spinning to find songs, albums, etc. -- the plastic protective shield is too thick. To try to spin, you have to press a bit hard to get the ipod to sense it and then it often "thinks" you are clicking (not spinning) and selects something I don't want. Forget it if you want to try to rapidly scroll through the songs. Then, when you get too frustrated and try to get the ipod out to do it yourself, it's hard to get out (I suspect this will become easier the more I use it). I am even thinking about cutting a hole in the front of it so I can actually use the wheel! I suggest trying to find an armband that has an opening for the click wheel.

Works as Advertised
I bought this armband so that I could jog and keep my 80GB Video iPod in place. It works like its supposed to, the iPod isn't going anywhere. Seems to be pretty well-made. I gave it 4 stars becuse it is so frustrating and difficult to remove the iPod from the band when I'm done using it.
