I've found the armband to be a very useful item. My Zune fits right into it, no problelm. The holes at the bottom to allow for the earphone connection are in the right place and are the right size. The protective covering is thick and it is a little hard to push through it, but the interactive screen on the zune responds nicely. The strap is wide enough that it doesn't feel like it's cutting into my arm. I've used it on several different machines at the gym and while running, hiking and mowing the lawn. I can't say it's perfect. It's a little ugly. It's actually somewhat oversized for the Zune. But basically, it does what's needed.

First, the good...
The strap is the easiest to adjust when running of all the armbands I've owned and it's comfortable.
The cons are that it is porous on the back side, but not on the front, so moisture readily accumulates on the face of the clear plastic area and the Zune is covered when I take it out. It definitely needs some more ventilation area. The unit does not fit snuggly, so you have to wad up the armband or dig around to find the buttons you need or to plug your headphones in.
For the price, it is serviceable.

It's OK for anything that doesn't have a touch screen,

Cons-
For starters, it is not specifically designed for the Zune HD. It is just a generic armband for any cell phone or MP3 player. That being said; with a touch screen like the Zune HD, the clear plastic interferes with what you are trying to touch because it wrinkles up due to the excess plastic. So you end up touching other parts of the screen when pressing down if the clear plastic shifts positions. This means I usually end up pulling the player out of the armband to change songs or functions. This is extremely annoying if you are on a jog. If you have a regular Zune or any MP3 player with physical buttons, it will work just fine. The arm band itself could be a little more comfortable but not bad. Before my original Zune died, I had a Belkin armband. The Belkin was 100% neoprene and very comfortable. Unfortunately they haven't made one for the Zune HD yet.
Pros-
It does have a large armband. For the most part, as far as I am concerned, all armbands are made...Read more
