Review: Cygnett Action Armband Sports Armband for iPhone 5 & iPod 5th Gen.

Do you like to listen to tunes while you work out?  As a former runner I often carried my iPhone with me when out on the road.  Not only did the iPhone serve as my iPod for entertainment while running but I also felt safer with it along serving as a lifeline should something unthinkable happen such as an injury.  The way you carry and protect your iPhone during workouts is as important as the clothes you choose to workout it.  An armband has always been one of the more traditional ways to do so.  Today we’ll take a look at one such offering from Cygnett.

Click on through for my full review.

Inside the packaging you’ll find just the arm band.  No extras are included.

Here’s what Cygnett has to say about the Action Armband Sports Armband for iPhone 5 & iPod 5th Gen.

Enjoy your beats while you move with comfortable, secure, weather-resistant Action Armband. Extra shock-absorption for iPhone and iPod, made from quick-dry, snug neoprene and Velcro, you’ll enjoy access to all controls.

The Cygnett Action Armband Sports Armband for iPhone 5 & iPod 5th Gen. is made from mostly neoprene.  It’s easy to slip on and adjusts to fit most any arms thanks to Velcro.  There’s a small pocket on the inside of the armband which is perfect for storing a key.

The arm band has cut outs at all four corners so no matter which version of the iPhone or iPod touch you use you’ll find access for your headphones.

Simply slip your device into the pouch along the back.

A play through window allows you to access your device’s screen to change music selections or complete other tasks yet it keeps your device safe from the elements.

A handy headset keeper is built in to the arm band so that you can easily store your earbuds when not in use.

If you’ve been looking for a way to bring your iPhone or iPod touch along during workouts, runs or other exercises an arm band is a good way to do so.  The Cygnett Action Armband Sports Armband for iPhone 5 & iPod 5th Gen. is both comfortable to wear and quite functional allowing for use with either the iPhone or iPod touch.  A handy headset keep insures that both your arm band and headphones stay together allowing you to get your workout in at a moments notice.
