If you’re a runner, then you know the irritation that a heavy phone can bring to your workout. When it swings back and forth in your pocket and hits your leg, it can be painful and throw you off your groove. Good news: Those days are over! The E Tronic Edge phone holder is an arm strap that keeps your phone safe and secure, and most importantly, out of your pocket. Right now, this giftable gadget over 60% off — just $6 — for Prime members and it’ll arrive in time.
E Tronic Edge
This clever strap not only keeps your phone out of harm’s way but also wicks away sweat and moisture from your body. It can hold phones up to seven inches too!
Why is this a good deal?
Normally $16, this handy case is down to $6 for Prime members. That’s over 60% off, which is one heck of a deal, especially when you consider that it will still arrive before Christmas if you need a last-minute stocking stuffer.
Why do I need this?
A major component of running is rhythm, and it’s nearly impossible to find your rhythm if your phone is hitting your leg like an out-of-practice jazz musician listening to a 120 BPM version of “Senbonzakura.” It’s also great for holding your phone while gardening, mowing the lawn or cleaning the house. The strap comes in four sizes (small, medium, large and extra-large) and is available in seven colors.
The moisture-wicking material keeps your arm and your phone dry. The phone fits into a zipped compartment, and there’s a second pouch for items such as keys and a wallet. It can accommodate phones of up to seven inches in size, which means nearly any modern device should fit without issue. Just don’t try to stuff an iPad in there.
What reviewers say
“I’ve gone through so many armband varieties for smartphones and found this one to be the best fit for me, for exercise or even just walking around,” one reviewer said. “It’s comfortable, lightweight and can easily hold my iPhone and AirPods at the same time.”
Another raved, “I absolutely love running with it. I never have to adjust or have worry about it slipping down during my rum. Definitely recommend it!”
A third shopper wrote, “This stretches perfectly and stays secure during my entire run. Exactly what I wanted. The only downside I can think of compared to other armbands is that there’s no plastic film that would allow you to see and touch the phone’s screen while it’s on your arm. You need to unzip the pouch and take the phone out whenever you need to access it.”

The armband’s stretchy, spandex-like material is comfortable yet tight enough that it won’t slide when you’re pouring sweat 10 miles into your run. You can also wear it while gardening, cleaning the house or walking the dog.
