Good design, nice bracelet.

I used to have several bracelets and they all had different problems. First, since I'm a tall guy, they never seem to fit my shoulder. They also tend not to be very tactile when touching the screen through the plastic cover. And finally, they seem to fall off when you sweat. I've had this group for a few days now and can talk about some of these issues and more. As far as build quality goes, it's at the top. The neoprene is high quality and comfortable and seems to last a long time. The plastic is nice and clear, the Velcro is by no means cheap, and it feels like it will survive a few openings and closings. The strap seems to hold up well on my arm when I'm sweating and it fits my rather large shoulder really well as it has two loops next to the key holder. I was concerned it would not fit my phone with a case and this was to remove the case to keep it from sliding. It's not like this. It fits very well (WARNING: bacon body, slightly thin body). The flap, which opens to allow the phone to be worn on a bandage, still closes with the phone and case, which is a good thing. The beauty of the band is its omnidirectionality. You can turn your phone upside down and the strap still has holes for headphones or a speaker. So you can decide how you want to wear it no matter how you want your phone oriented. Volume buttons (iPhone 6) and power/sleep button. This is due to omnidirectionality. Because the band is centered and wide, it interferes with the side buttons a bit. The second issue is that the plastic screen tends to tilt a bit when you're holding the phone. It sits a bit off the phone's actual screen, meaning you have to tap on it to be able to swipe for different functions. . It's ok, but it could be because the phone case compresses the space reserved just for the phone. It also affects the flap a bit. While it closes on the phone, it doesn't close as tightly as just the phone and no case. This may not be an issue, but I'm wondering if this might affect the bracelet's "water resistant" claim. Speaking of which, I wouldn't pour water on the hull. I'm sure this will protect the phone from sweat, but since there are headphone/speaker holes on both ends of the bandage, I'm sure if it rained while you were wearing it, water would seep into these holes . and thus to your phone. Finally the crucial point. While I like the idea, it's a bit odd. First off, I don't carry house keys on my keychain, and it's definitely not big enough to securely hold a car key. I'm thinking of a small expandable pocket, maybe lightweight neoprene with a velcro flap, accommodating a small bunch of keys would be the best option. Some people might carry a key, but mine is on my keychain and doesn't fit up my sleeve at all. PROS: - Fits comfortably in the hand - Suitable for "big" hands - Easy to attach the phone with a thin case - High quality materials (neoprene, velcro, etc.) - Feels like it will last a long time CONS: - Annoying light with the volume/power buttons - plastic "camps" a bit - not sure how "waterproof" it really is - button dot a bit awkward. In general, a beautiful bandage. I definitely recommend it to others. Full disclosure, I received this free pattern to share my honest opinion. But it didn't affect my opinion.
