Default Sport armbands for Nexus 4

Hi everybody,

If you are looking for an armband for your Nexus 4 I could recommend you one of those two. I tested both with a bumper on my phone and both work fine. Phone fits tight. Tune Belt seems to be crafted slightly better. Arkon has wider plastic screen and is cheaper.

I was just thinking of going running next month to get in shape! But I thought the Nexus 4 was too ridiculously huge to run with. I'm a short guy 5'6".

I'm 5'6" run with it in hand. Prefer that, but I wish I could find a hand strap like an old Sony sports cassette Walkman from the 80s.

I used to run with phone in my hand but it was to awkward for me. Armand and bluetooth headset is a perfect combination.

I'm curious, I run with my N4 on a waist pouch and use Bluetooth earphones. Doesn't the armband get annoying? After I put enough mileage on a run even my shirt bugs me. I would think a phone strapped to my arm would drive me nuts. Thoughts?
