Has anyone used or seen a decent arm band for running with the nexus s yet? The only one I can find is the Blk Neoprone, of which I have seen a few people say is no good on other forums.
Since the phone is practically similar in size as the Vibrant. I've read that some Vibrant users used an iPhone type of arm band or something like that. You can check out the links if you're interested.

So, this pouch is intended for the Nexus S. But the Nexus S and the Optimus 2x/T-mobile G2x are the same dimensions. look at it here and here for the xda user who shows great pictures of it.
I own a G2x and I was hoping if one of the UK users could help me get my hands on one. I think it will be perfect for our devices.
EDIT: They have a buy one get one half of deal going on
Really? No one willing to help?

Hi everyone
I commute to work into the city every day.On the train I see the usual suspects iPhone/ iPad Samsung galaxy and a shed load of Kindle touches.
With Nexus selling loads why do I feel so lonely? I have yet to spot anther Nexus7 user.Have any of you spotted one yet?If so when and where?
I've seen several. A friends of mine has one. At places like chick fil a and Atlanta bread they r a frequent.
I live in Alabama though.
War Eagle.
I've never met anybody in person with a nexus anything. That's one reason why I love the nexus line. It's a lot more rare to me and not "trendy". It's not a social status symbol.
I have yet to see one too! Although every iPad user I see is interested in my awesome tablet! :laugh:

Most places are still sold out of Nexus 7 so many would-be Nexus 7 owners have not gotten theirs yet. With that said, other devices such as iPad or Kindle have been out much longer so it's not really a fair comparison either.
Someone I saw had one yesterday, and I heard someone else say to him 'wow, its like a mini ipad'
Fuuuuuuuuuuu

Also, when I have shown it to other people, nobody has had any idea what it is and has never heard of it either!!
The general reaction is "is that like an iPad then?"

Downtown Boston, McDonald's. He had the 8 gb and we swapped apps. It was cool to talk to another N7 user. Although he wasn't that tech savvy... He had no idea what "landscape" and "potrait" was :-/

In my area the nexus 7 is super rare because I'm the only one who ordered one from the only gamestop in my area! Plus the rep that gave me my tab told me to stop in and tell him how it is because he wants to trade his iPad in for it!
Finally saw one on the underground in the UK last weekend no case naked nexus *tut* *tut*

I was asked one time while food shopping if my GNote was the ipad. If I didn't have ice cream and richie's slush that needed to go in the freezer asap he would have received a beating.

Mine is naked, I have a case coming from ebay. It has a screen protector though
I have to constantly explain to just about everyone why I have a nexus 7 instead of an ipad. Not only do I like it because it runs android and is a nexus devices, but am I the only one here who thinks that ipad is too big and heavy??
I know of only 1 person other than me with a nexus 7. Poor guy was harassed over questions about his 'mini ipad'
I have been searching to know avail. I am looking for pouch that would fit my phone that I have a ballistic gel case for. I have always had Reiko pouches. I like the build quality and it needs to have a integrated clip or loops for belt. Has anyone been able to find such a thing. I am open to other brands. Thanks for any help.

I ended up buying a water bottle cover at walmart. I'll take a picture tomorrow if you're interested. It came with two loops and a climbing clasp. I just loop belt through biggest loop and gravity does the rest.
I looked at cases online too and am surprised these companies don't offer a 4x7 horizontal belt case. Saw things that almost might work but to be honest this bottle water holder, flimsy/thin as it is, is the best thing I've found. For $3.00

I seen a bunch on ebay, it that is what you want. Sorry no link, but if you look at ebay I am sure you can find a cheap case that will work for you there.

I do understand what you are looking for. There are plenty of those on ebay, all you need to know is the dimensions your phone with the case on it. You may even go to the local cell phone store, find a larger phone that matches the size of your phone with case, then look for a case that would fit that larger phone. I hope that makes sense. I have seen many of those Holster cases for less then 10 bucks.
I have done that. Best buy. Local verizon stores. cell phone accessory stores. Online. Nothing. My phone is the same size as the note 3 without a case. But they only have sleeves. I have emailed several manufacturers and they all have said they will not fit with a case I have. Gonna have to see if they come out with anything for note 3. As of right now there is nothing. If you have seen them. Throw me a link. I have done my homework. That is why I have posted here. That is how this forum works. If you can help I would appreciate it. If not thanks for reading post.

I had Googled Reiko and that was how I had seen a bunch of them. I have a super sized one here in the house somewhere that I had bought at a Flea Market in Daytona Beach Florida.
When I went to there site I was looking for something for the Lg. They didnt have anything that was definitely gonna fit. Just found some on eBay that had inside dimensions in descriptions. Finally. Order a few different ones to try. One for work which is a nylon version. We'll see when I get them. Thanks

Hope you'll let us know. The water bottle cozy is working but I do get strange looks now and then. The eBay Link you posted looks more professional and protective.

So I received my order from eBay. The three I ordered all fit. With my ballistic gel case. If you are interested I will provide the info. Just let me know. I will probably post a confirmed thread in accessory section tomorrow. Most expensive ones were 8.49 with free shipping. All three only cost $27. Better than the 20-50$ I seen in stores.

Went into our local Best Buy on Saturday, and was surprised to see a large Samsung area carved out in the front of the store. Nice, clean white display and tables. It was the same size as that stores entire Mobile Phone dept, so pretty good sized. They had all the latest and greatest, of course, and very knowledgeable folks working there. They said they were there full time now. Pretty cool to see. My first hands on with a Gear. I can see it's utility, but doubt I'll get one.
Anyone else have one in their BB stores?

The lady working the Samsung area at our BB also offered to update/check my S4. I refused since I'm rooted and it was a bit of a battle to get 4.3 installed and solid on my phone.
Mine was rooted also but at the same time I was so excited about the update that I jumped to gun. I tried to find if I needed to take any steps before receiving the update but couldn't find any information. Long story short it took with no problem root was gone but I just rerooted and it was good. The update actually fixed my battery life tremendously. Took 15 min via usb.

We have a Samsung at all the Best Buys here in Wichita, KS. They are really the only reason I ended up going with the S4.

Can confirm..
Almost every Best Buy should have a Samsung Experience Store inside now, with the exception of a very few. The only stores I am aware of without them are the small format stores. Even the Best Buy Mobile stores have a small Samsung vignette now.
dont go to best buy mobile they spent almost 45 minutes trying to get my note 2 to work with the store demo galaxy gear, i guess they hire any ole body at those stores

Seems weird that you would let them try and pair a non compatible device for that long. Assuming you weren't rooted and using a compatibility work around.

Looking to get a maximum protection case for when I'm out on the trails. I thought I had it narrowed down to the Trident and the Poetic until I came across this one.

Does anyone have any experience with it?

If you use airplane mode when using that case or your trail is directly under a cell tower, go for it. If not, then aluminum cases degrade the piss out of signal and rape your battery trying to find or maintain a signal, or even worse attempting to transmit on zero or one bar.
