fits perfectly with the iPhone5

I am more like an opportunity runners. So 2 ... 3 times a week 5 ... 8 km even in good weather ;-) Since the routes always vary somewhat, I use for several years different generations of GPS watches. That had been a number of disadvantages: 1. you had quite often charge the GPS watches, 2nd one has before the start always only have to wait for the SAT and 3. Fix for evaluation always needs a PC.
Meanwhile, there are enough APP`s with which the use of a smartphone for the recording and evaluation of training data is possible. The question is just simply: Where to put it while running? These bracelets for the upper arm are indeed very common, so I've ordered for my iPhone5 to test this "Griffin Adidas miCoach Armband for Apple iPhone 5 5 / iPod touch 5G".

What strikes you the same: the bracelet is very well made and very easy. The nylon material is welded at the seams clean and is pleasant on the skin. The iPhone 5 fits into the pocket provided, it is secured by a strap at the top and can be switched on or unplug easily. This tab also provides some protection from the rain because the water can not run from the top of the bag. By cling film the entire display can be read and also an operation of the touch screen is possible. The home button is covered by nylon however, as a mark would certainly be helpful to the meeting immediately. While running to read or operate the iPhone, however, is hardly possible in the state it goes so halfway. It is located at the at the bracelet even a small pocket for a flat security key. This bag is designed so that the key can not fall out while running. It fits really just a flat key into it, who wants to store car keys or more keys (house and apartment door, for example), must think of something else.

I have now used the bracelet a par time. Once I'm about 30 minutes get into drizzle. The iPhone was always dry after the run, even if the bracelet with sweat or rain was pretty wet. With continuous rain or intense stress that may look different, but for casual runners like me, it's ideal.
