Perfect for my Note 4! Well thought out and functional, great product!
I've been looking for the perfect bike bag for my mountain bike for awhile now and this is it. It went on easily, fits snugly, and doesn't move around, get in my way, or detract from my ride. My Samsung Galaxy Note 4 fits perfectly inside with a thin case and even fits - though not flush against the plastic - with my new much thicker case. The screen and front controls are all usable through the plastic screen, which has protected my phone from mud and rain. When you open the front of the case, your phone slides sideways into the pocket between the plastic and a padded backside, with elastic sides for a tight fit, and then another padded closure comes over and velcros onto that to keep it in place and safe. The angle of the pouch on my bike is perfect for viewing and using my phone and there is plenty of additional space for small items like chapstick, headphones, wallet, etc.The only issue I had with this case was the noise of the metal zipper pulls when I was riding, they rattle around a lot, but it was an easy fix - I simply removed the metal grab-pieces and tied a little cord there instead - which is easier to grab with my gloves anyway, and no more rattling!I now have the perfect bag! Well thought out and functional, great product!

Digging it.
EDIT: I just noticed that the item being sold now and the one I reviewed are not the same. It looks like the seller has swapped out the Bag version which I reviewed/commented on with a webbing based phone holder. My review is NOT for the rubber webbing thingie.Pretty good bag. Seems well constructed. I think it's water resistant but if you get caught in a downpour it's probably a good idea to have a baggy handy to protect your smartphone a bit better.Notes: I have a Galaxy SIII with an extended battery pack and it fits fine. However, if you want to use a connector on your phone then it becomes a very tight fit. If you can find a right angle connector to use you'll be fine.If using the GPS function of your phone to follow a route, the downward angle of the bag can make it difficult to see the screen properly for some. A piece of foam pipe insulation wrapped around the gooseneck of the handlebar stem can lift the bottom of the bag a bit and reduce the downward angle.

Seems like it is constructed well
Well, this didn't fit my bike very well. It would sit at a very steep angle that I would not be able to really read the screen. One thing that isn't talked about is that Touch ID will not work through the the transparent cover. Also, you cannot put your iPhone to sleep and you will just have to wait for it to go to sleep from its timeout settings. Also, the head phone cord adapter works, OK, but you will just have to adjust it a bit since on the iPhone 6 Plus, the headphone jack is on the phone's left, but the opening from the Velcro wrap is on the right side. Not too big of a deal.Seems like it is constructed well. Good quality.Yes, it does fit the iPhone 6 Plus. I have one of those slim, transparent cases for my phone.I would recommend you trying it out for your bike. It is really good quality, it just didn't fit my handle bar situation.

Great Gadget!
I just started biking again and I was looking for something to hold a few essentials on my rides. In the past, I used the pouches that attach in the back under the seat. When I searched for something like that, this product popped up. I was instantly curious if this would work better. After reading the description and reviews, I decided to give it a try. I am so happy that I did! It has worked perfectly for my needs! It attaches easily and securely to my handlebar without getting in the way. I can fit my Samsung Galaxy s6 Edge+ with a case in it very easily and the pouch also holds my keys, money, credit cards, gum and a few other odds and ends; it is very roomy! I love how I can use my phone without having to remove it from the pouch, I can easily see through the clear plastic and I can also attach my ear buds and there is a spot for the cord to fit through. This pouch is very durable and made exceptionally well. I am very happy with my choice and I would recommend this to anyone.

My only disappointment was with the angle at which it sits
This product was just as described. I bought the Medium 5" and if snugly fit my HTC ONE M8 in its UAG case. It has enough room for a spare tube and CO2, or a Clif bar, pair of gloves ect. My only disappointment was with the angle at which it sits. (obviously this varies on each bike/stem ect.) But On both my road and mtn. bike the stems are either level or slightly angled up. That paired with this case put the phone at such an angle I can hardly see the screen. I wish it were set up to place the phone at a more level or horizontal position for better viewing from the saddle. With that said this comes in about a third the cost or less of similar type items from the local bike shops, makes this little bag a great value!

OK
This model does a decent job, but I found it difficult to mount at the right angle on my bike to be able to see the screen effectively. The protective plastic is also prone to smears and glare--much more than the phone's native screen--which makes using your phone as a "bike computer" a questionable proposition. On the other hand the "pouch" in behind is a great place to store some snacks, sunglasses, an external power supply for longer rides, etc. I experimented with this on my Elliptigo and needed to use a piece of foam under the case to elevate it to a useful angle. Even then it wasn't ideal. I ended up springing for a dedicated Garmin bike computer. I'll continue to use the phone/case for some rides, but the dedicated bike computer like the Garmin is much easier to mount, observe and has more useful data fields than any of the apps I could use with my Android phone.
