Am a runner. A tight fitting elastic belt holds everything close and tight and is comfy. Best solution ive found.
I’m sure a tight belt is a good solution for most people, but I’m going to run right into the same problem I have with armbands - tight elastic is going to trigger my eczema as soon as I start sweating.
And then even if a phone weighed absolutely nothing, I’ve still got to look at the screen to control it, which means either stopping motion or taking my attention off where I’m going, it’s still got to be set to the highest brightness to see anything on the display, and as soon as I’m sweating, the touchscreen becomes almost useless anyway.
Do what works for you, but at the end of the day, I will never be satisfied trying to square peg a general purpose smartphone into the round hole of a run. Devices that were made specifically for this purpose and did it brilliantly used to exist, and don’t now.
Your headphones can control the audio. Make a playlist and then its easy to skip.
Good luck 👍
Appreciate the perspective. I’ll keep it in mind, but I generally use extremely cheap headphones with no controls because they don’t last long for me anyway. Between the sweat and the rough use, they only last a few months, and the extra cost for controls is an ongoing loss for me.
If it comes down to it though, I’ll keep your suggestions in mind.
Even those cheap af apple earbuds you used to get with ipods had a button on the wire. All but one of the sub 10 euro pairs i just found after one search also have it.
Try water proof bone conduction headphones
