  • sweatproof iphone case for running???

    so i ran a 10k this weekend and sweated my phone to death in my cheap plastic armband case i bought from academy. the apple store jsut handed me a new phone so i figure i will never be that lucky again so i need a sweatproof case for my phone. i use the phone for music and the GPS to tell how far i run. any suggestions?

    and yes please pickup on the solid barg about the 10k.

    god bless.

        I think Otterbox has one that has what you're looking for. It might be yellow in color though.

          what kind of time did you do?

          I also need my phone for music and gps, but I also have to carry mine since I switch through songs alot. what kills my phone is the heat, since I usually go out in mid-day.

          you can get a Lifeproof case for it, and then find a armband for a bigger android phone that it might fit in with the case on.

              it is a good case. but like I mentioned there is no armband made to fit it. Bet thing I can think of is finding an armband made to fit one of the larger Android phones that this case might fit in.

              Another thing you can do, like I do, is carry the phone in your hand and wear wrist sweat bands to keep the sweat off your hands.

              Works for me and I do several 10K and 5K runs per week. last week did a 5k run monday, 10k tues, 5k Wed, and 10k Sat. Slacking this week so far.

                    All i've ever seen is the belt/bike clip that they sell, and all they show on the LifeProof website is a universal band.

                      I've got the otterbox, and the armband made for Iphones with the otterbox. It's pretty bulky, but it gets the job done.

                        You could probably find an ipod shuffle for the price of an otterbox, and not have to have a brick strapped to your arm.

                          X2. My 12 year old just got his first phone, so we got him this case in hopes the phone wouldn't get messed up. So far he's gotten it wet and dropped it countless times and it's all good. Plus, it's not at big as the Otterbox.

                            just get an otter box and secure it to your arm with rubber bands ...

                              I have a lifeproof case, it sits in my desk most of the time though. When I cycle I usually throw my phone in my jersey pocket and I sweat a ton and I have never had an issue with my phone stop working, this goes back to my 3gs, 3 or so years ago. Now I don't always take my phone but when I do I have not had any issues.
