I tend to run long distance and the armbands always sweat through. What are you results as far as the phone remaining dry?

Oops, also meant to add that I've never had a problem with the phone itself getting sweaty.

The armband itself can get sweaty but I haven't had any problems with if falling down my arm. The actual phone case is silicone and attaches to the armband so the sweat will not reach the phone.

The armband itself (the fabric portion, not the rubbery bit that encloses the phone) does get sweaty. To combat this, I generally just remove the band from the rubbery part after a run and throw it in the washing machine with my running clothes, then I let it air dry. Hope that helps!

I haven't ran in heavy rain, but I have ran in light rain and my phone was dry after.

I don't use the armband, but the case shields the SD card opening and is immune to sweat. It's well worth the money.

I sweat a lot when I run my longer runs. It held up just fine. I live in a dry climate so I can't answer about the humidity. I had another armband that had a lot of condensation, but this one allows my iPod to bresthe eliminating any condensation.

I wouldn't consider myself a heavy sweater, but after running 3 miles wearing this band it was completely soaked. My other arm wasn't even that sweaty which leads me to believe that it is more the band causing me to sweat than the running. The armband was soaked through to my phone, which is not good.

I'm a pretty sweaty gal and when I take my phone out, the back feels damp. I would never trust this in rain.

The front plastic screen provides a shield against liquids, however the surrounding mesh does absorb moisture. I do not recommend intentionally running in the rain with this armband.

Yes, I run with them outside with my phone in an armband and get fairly regular skipping...it's annoying but I find it less annoying than cords.

Somewhat, the band does get moist because of the sweat but it hasn't gone though the phone or anything. I ran un light mist a few times and it worked fine.

Just to add another confirmation here, this armband does protect against sweat soaking through. I have run with it in 100 degree plus heat in the humid summer of Charleston, SC and my phone stayed dry. Can't say that for my Belkin armband.

Doesn't absorb a lot of sweat, my phone always been dry when i removed it from the case. And as for it getting hot, not really it gets warm but I'm use to it. Now mind you i use it in side a air condition gym and really haven't tested to much out in the sun on the jogging / bike paths.

My Mybat armband adequately protected my phone from sweat. I occasionally run in light rain and that was never a problem either. However, one of the plastic brackets that the strap runs through broke while I was running. The armband, which I used only for running, lasted me about 13.5 months. With three 25-minute runs per week, that works out to about 160 runs. On the other hand, I only paid about $6, including shipping costs, for this product.

The older freedoms would drop all the time. When I walk to work I keep my iphone5 in my back L pocket and it stays connected, except for the occasional hiccup where it drops for a split second then keeps playing. When I run I use an armband or carry it in my hand and no prob. Inside it works all around the gym.

I place my iPhone with the otterbox inside the band and have not noticed any sweat or moisture getting to the phone. I have also jogged in he rain with his armband with no issues.

Honestly I will not use the armband under a heavy storm . But I think that the perspiration or a light drizzle will not be transferred to the cellphone.The material is good for my taste. I use it for run and walk but generally I don't run when there is rain.

I am using it 3 times a week as a minimum, and I'm very happy with the sound and battery life. I have not used raining, but when I bike or run, I sweat and get wet some headphones, but it has not happened anything.

Depends how much he sweats! I sweat a lot, but I use the rubber protective cover to the Sansa device and with it clipped unto the armband, I have never noticed any moisture problems.
