armband: Does the armband connect via the belt clip or does it go on the case?

There are two slots in the back of the case, and the armband easily slides in behind them. I have it on right now, and it seems to work well. I've tried swinging my arm around, and it's barely budged. I'm definitely quite pleased with this set so far. (and the case itself is not nearly as hard to get on and off as some people have said. All I did was slide it through the hole where the screen goes, then pop the top up over it)

It fits with the case on. I've never had to remove my case to plug in my phone!

No, It will have to come out of the case but there is "Sport Armband for Otterbox iPhone 5 Defender Series Case" that should work better for you.

You would have to take your phone out. I have a speck case which is much slimmer and my phone will only fit in the armband with its case removed

The otterbox had a piece if rubber you can flip open and the armband has a whole you stick the auxiliary cable end through.

The Armband is designed to perfectly fit the dimension of the phone without a case. You may need to take off the case, depending on the thickness and the design of it.

No, the belt clip cannot be removed. There are no slots for an armband. It is a very good holder though - made from leather and protective.

I have a thin case on mine and I have to take it off to put it in the armband. So I wouldn't think so!

The phone with the otter box case fits into the armband. It is snug but fits fine.

Without the protective case & it is really snug. I still think it worked well & the armband itself protected it from damage when I clumsily dropped it.

Not sure about the arm band (I'm looking for one too), but the case is really easy to remove.

No. The ipod does fit perfectly in the armband and has a cut out for the on/off switch and the headphone connection.

No the arm band is too slim. Having the hard case on will make it too tight and it will be constantly pushing the power button and turning off the phone in the middle of a run. That's why I started taking my case off to run with it and then sweat went through the band and ruined my phone. Just don't buy it. It's horrible.

Hi Wanda-I'm sorry but you would need to take your ballistic case off for it to fit into the armband case.Thanks,Mediabridge Customer Support856-216-8222support@mediabridgeproducts.com

the case and the belt clip are separate. You can use the case without the clip.

No. The rubber won't allow it to slip inside the armband. It's pretty tight.

Yes. I feel like this case is very poorly made and the armband is just a generic band you can find at any sport equipment store. I don't use this case anymore. I just use the clip the MP3 came with when I'm at the gym.
