PDO Sporteer iPhone/iPod Touch Armband Review

Now that summer is here (remind me when it arrives in rainy Vancouver), that means more time to spend in the beautiful sunshine. Whether you’re going to be biking, jogging, rollerblading, jogging, walking, etc…you always need somewhere to store your precious iPhone. Sometimes you don’t have pockets when you’re out–that’s when the PDO Sporteer iPhone/iPod Touch Armband comes to save the day!

Our friends from PDOstore.com have been gracious enough to send us their new Sporteer iPhone Armband to review. You might have read my previous iPhone Accessory reviews of their TopSkin Silicone Case and Reviso Premium Leather Case before. The quality of their cases is high, as this Sporteer Armband takes it to another level.

Tell Me More About this iPhone Armband!

The PDO Sporteer iPhone Armband has the following features:
– slim lightweight design
– super soft neoprene makes for a comfortable fit (it’s really soft)
– reflective material to save your life from cars at night
– adjustable strap will fit most arms (unless your arm size is broomstick)
– clear plastic frontal protector allows for the touchscreen to full function

After taking the PDO Sporteer iPhone Armband out of its box, immediately I noticed the high quality of the neoprene and the classy design. There is a tiny PDO logo on the armband, which makes it quite non-intrusive to the eye. Reflective strips are on both sides of the plastic screen protector. The bottom features a hole for the headphones to insert for you iPod Touch users. This thing is awesome!

What’s the verdict on this PDO Sporteer iPhone Armband?

I installed my iPhone (protected by an invisibleSHIELD) into the armband and it held in there really snug. The top elastic opening is a bit smaller to prevent your iPhone from flying out–but with my invisibleSHIELD it actually made my iPhone fit tighter–perfect!

I tried it out on my arm and the velcro held it in place. It feels like I’m getting my blood pressure taken right now as I’m typing this with the armband on my arm. I still have circulation in my right hand folks, which is a good thing.

I would highly recommend the PDO Sporteer iPhone Armband because of the sleek design and comfortable neoprene. The reflective strips on the front and one patch on the back make this the perfect case. If you’re out and about in the summer, coupled with your Bluetooth headset (yes, I know you wear one) this iPhone Armband will make for some good times. I will be giving one away in a later date.
