The V7 will take just about any phone, but it is best on the Apple I-phone 6 plus models, the phone I will be testing on the V7 is a ZTE Blade V6, its about the same size as the I-phone bigger models, and fits into the V7 Armband a treat.
Features: On Sporteer web page they describe the V7 as follows
- Edge™ touch screen design for full visibility and functionality of the iPhone 6 Plus screen
- Extra space inside for carrying small necessities
- Interior moisture barrier keeps sweat out and your iPhone 6 Plus dry
- Elastic strap for gel pack or earphone cord management
- Integrated external pocket for a key, credit card, ID, and/or cash
- Locking zippers eliminate annoying rattling during your workout
- Reflective piping and strap tab for night safety
- Strap-Lok™ design prevents armband from falling off when adjusted during activity - no more holding your armband in place with your chin.

I used the V7 Sporteer armband on a Group mountain bike ride around the woods last night, 09/12/2015, and it was a ride with a difference!
The wettest ride I have been on in a long time, unfortunatly I had to leave my camera at home as it is not a waterproof model, so sorry to say no photos of the evenings ride out. I had the ZTE V6 in the armband all night during the ride, as it was just too wet to take it out to take any photos, I was drenched, the bike was covered in mud, and the jacket I had on was soaked through, and I had to remove the cycling glasses I was wearing as the rain was misting up the lens and I could not see where I was going safely, so in other words a "Madness Ride Out" .........!
How did the V7 do on the ride?
I can honestly say "Great"!The Sporteer V7 kept the ZTE V6 dry as a bone, even though the case was ringing wet!
I did not get the chance to try the phone out as the rain was hammering down all night and I did not want to take the chance on taking the ZTE V6 out of the armband until I was home!
Only problem I had on the ride with the Sporteer V7 armband was it slid down my arm every now and again, and I had to re adjust it back up, I think this was mainly due to the amount of wetness absorbed by my jacket, I will give the V7 another test out when its not raining to see how I get on with it in better weather conditions.

It is a good choice to use the reflective material to make armband.
