I don't have to worry about it falling off. I haven't used the armband yet, but the cover has a beltclip that fits well on my clothing. It stays put.
Can't understand why they made the thing so short - can't have saved that much on the cost of goods I wouldn't think. If the band were about 4 or 6 inches longer I think this would work for a lot more people out there. As other reviewers have noted out here, it's a little on the small side for men - I'm not exactly packing steel anacondas in my sleeves but this was just too small to be comfortable for working out at the gym. The little cord management clip (magnetic) was nice and the ruber sleeve it fit into works ok (I just clip it to the pocket of my T-shirt and it stays put well enough).
I sent them back a SECOND explanation for my dissatisfaction, citing my claim that the product advertised was not included in the original order, nor the second order, which I DIDN'T order at all, but inquired when they might ship me the REST of my original order. Oh the item that is NOW shown as what you will receive with this order is fantastic. But I didn't really even buy the thing for the armband OR the silicone holder. Otherwise, I remain a dissastisfied customer, not because what I received is not very nice, because it is, but because what I received was not all that was originally advertised.
If you ever saw the original item advertised that included the image of the leather holder for the zen V on amazon.com, please, provide the url for this. I am going to check the archives of online conversations with collegues, because I recall asking their advice on purchasing this, to get a second opinion on the deal it seemed to be when including the leather case, and if I find it there, I will post the url here in this review section. In otherwords, great product, but not everything I had ordered. I am going to double check on that, but I do recall it coming w/in the two day's time and being included as part of the customer reviews available after the product advertisement and listing here on amazon.com.
I remember that the comments/feedback/reviews from the customers were negative on this additional part of the order, however I felt their reasoning for the negativity was a bit uncalled for, as they were complaining that though they liked the silicone casing, the armband and the beltclip, the leather case that WAS included at the time of my own order, didn't allow them to be able to SEE the screen on their zens. I believe it was a amazon prime item, as I belong to that on here, and I do not think it was a 3rd party item actually. The armband is nice and comfortable, although a bit wider than I would like. Then I decide to come back to amazon's site to find the proof of my claim, through the url to the product item listing on amazon.com, and NOW I find that mysteriously, the product that I have been inquiring about that is yet not included in my order has completely disappeared.
I kept it, thinking they realised they had falsely advertised a product they had no way of including in that order price, but then they begin sending ME email saying I have x amount of days to return the product last sent or be billed for it as well. I bought it and considered it a bargain because supposedly, according to the TWO SEPARATE user-offered images for the product(s) contained within this particular order, you ALSO got a LEATHER holder. Now I receive my order WITHOUT this leather holder, send a letter to amazon concerning this as an item sent missing products advertised, they send me ANOTHER zen order exactly like the last one, that meaning it still does not include the advertised leather holder that was apparently included in the original advertisement with the image of it.
The beltclip was far more useful. the armband was not great, keep falling off my arm, it should have been elastic in order to keep it in place.
It looks good and I'm glad I ordered it. This armband really comes in handy when I'm working out at the gym. It has a flap to secure the cord so it doen't interfere with my workout.
