Do you enjoy a good workout? Are your favorite songs the one thing that gets you on your morning run? Do you frequent the local gym? Does good music motivate you when you’re mowing the lawn? If yes, then the Lovphone armband might be an excellent product for you.
The armband will allow you to go just about anywhere, do almost anything, while still keeping your phone with you. You strap the band around your arm and slide your phone into the pouch, easy as that.

Design
Of course, you are going to have a pouch that will store your phone on your arm. It has a transparent screen protector that will still allow you to have full access to your phones touch screen. Unlike some other armbands, this one will enable you to access your phone's fingerprint sensor, giving you access to that feature without taking the phone out of the protective pocket.
One of the extra features the Lovphone incorporates into the design that helps it go above and beyond is the storage compartments. This one will give you a place to store a key, which is pretty typical for running armbands. It also has a lot on the back for you to store an ID, credit card, or cash, so you don't have to stash it in your pockets or carry around an extra bag. Additionally, there is even a place for you to store your headphones and help manage the cord while not in use.
There are two slots on the armbands that you can use for a more comfortable fit. Depending on the size of your arm, you will use one of the two slots to feet the strap through. It will ensure that you get the most comfortable fit possible.
The Lovphone band comes in two varieties — one for standard size phones and one designed for larger ones. Regardless of what size you choose, you can get three color options. The armband itself is black. The colors come from the reflective strip that encircles the screen protector. Some customers prefer the simple gray color, allowing you to blend into the crowd. Other consumers opt for a fun pop of color, choosing rosy (pink) or blue.
Materials
The neoprene has nylon surrounding it so you can get a more comfortable feeling. You get all the benefits of the neoprene with the comfort of the softer fabric — no need to worry about chaffing and irritation.
The transparent screen protector will protect your phone from the outside world, preventing scratches and dings while you're on the go. The PVC covering provides durable functionality. You can still access your phone's touchscreen while still getting the protection you need. There is even a small cutout so you can use the fingerprint sensor to unlock your device.
The Lovphone armband is water resistant, protecting your phone from moisture damage while you're working out. Exercise is a sweaty business. You don't want to worry about that sweat getting inside and damaging your phone. Between the neoprene band and the PVC cover, your device will be safe from damage from moisture. Note that water resistant doesn't mean waterproof. It will keep sweat out but don't submerge your band; it will not keep your phone safe if you do.
Comfort
There are some air vents along the armband to help get some air flowing through, helping keep your arm fresh. It doesn't do a lot, but it is something is better than nothing. Wearing a neoprene band around your arm that is sweat-resistant can make your skin feel hot and sweaty underneath it. This will let a little air in, at least, adding a little extra comfort.
Some consumers felt that the Lovphone armband was a little on the bulky side, making it slightly less comfortable than they would prefer. You can expect that it would have some bulk to it, especially if you are using it in conjunction with a larger phone. This one, in particular, has extra storage pockets so you can expect some additional bulk to the product. If you want a minimalist option, then this armband might not be the best option for you.
Even though it has some bulk to it, the Lovphone is lightweight. Of course, if you are adding a heavy phone to the band, it will add a decent amount of weight to it, but overall it isn't too bad and doesn't add discomfort to the overall design.
Fit
The Lovphone can fit arms that measure between 10 inches (25.4cm) and 15 inches (38.1cm) with ease. If your arms are more prominent than 15 inches, you may want to consider a different armband, one that has strap extenders available.
Activities
It is a perfect option for those who lead an active lifestyle, for those who like to get up and go. Whether running a marathon, spending time in the gym, or walking around the neighborhood, the Lovphone armband is a perfect companion.
You can bring your phone with you during your workout with ease. It is sweat-resistant, so there's no need to worry about moisture damage while you're going hard. The neoprene materials also make sure that it isn't going to slip and fall down your arm the whole time, keeping you free from distractions.
Of course, you can do more than head to the gym with the band. Some customers love that they can do their yard work or house cleaning with this bad boy on their arm. It allows you to keep your phone with you for easy access to your music and messages.
No matter what you are doing, the Lovphone armband will make a great addition to your gear.
Features
Of course, you get the standard transparent screen protector that will allow you to have full access to your cell phone's touch screen. Additionally, you will be able to use your devices fingerprint sensor to unlock your phone. There is a small cutout in the screen protector, so you don't have to take your phone out of the protective pocket.
Storage! Customers love the little pockets integrated into the design that they can stow away some essentials while they're out and about. On the outside, you will find a space for you to store a key, so you can bring along your house or car key while you're working out. Additionally, they feature a slot for cord management. Whether you aren’t using your headphones and need a place to store them or you want to manage the extra slack while you're running, this feature will allow you to do that. You won't have to deal with cords getting in your way, distracting you.
On the backside of the band, the part that sits against your skin is another pocket. This one is ideal for holding a card or two, such as an ID or credit card. You can also stow away a little cash to have on hand if you need it. Some customers have commented that this pocket feels a bit lose and not the most secure. Most of those customers opt to throw their cards or cash right in the pouch that houses their phone.
Another great feature of the Lovphone armband is the reflective strip that circles the phone pocket. It isn't much, but it is an excellent safety addition to the product. It will help make sure that passers-by can see you while you're outside in low light conditions. You might want to consider wearing additional reflective apparel as well, but it's nice to know you have a little something extra with the Lovphone.
Durability
The neoprene materials ensure that it will not fall apart while you're out and about. It is water resistant, so you won't have to worry about moisture damage, to the armband or your phone. Overall, its a pretty great armband that has impressive durability.
Care
You should avoid throwing it in the washer, but hand washing it is perfectly acceptable. You can clean it with mild detergent and hang it up to dry.
When you are wearing a product to the gym frequently, when you're working out a lot, you are going to sweat. That sweat will cause your apparel and gear to stink; you want to make sure you are keeping it clean to slow down this inevitability. Since it's easy to wash, there should be no excuse for keeping it clean and smelling great.

Compatibility
The standard armband is perfect for the smaller sized phones. It is compatible with iPhone X/8/7/6/6s. There is even some extra room in the pouch, so you don't have to remove your everyday phone case to insert it into the armband.
The larger sized Lovphone armband is ideal for those with the plus size phones. It is compatible with iPhone 8 Plus/7 Plus/6 Plus/6s Plus. As with the smaller sized one, there is some extra room for your phone case.
You may be able to use Android phones in the case, but they had Apple products in mind when they designed it. Since you slide the phone down into the pocket, there should be no reason you couldn't use a different cell phone as well.
