Gear Beast Cell Phone Lanyard, Silicone Smartphone Holder Case and Neck Strap Compatible with Most Phones

I love this! I’ve only used it once. Not to sure how durable it will be but it worked amazing. Great length. Comfortable lanyard piece. Truly enjoyed how easy it was to take on/ off and also that it has a clasp to allow you to detach the lanyard from the rubber base. My iPhone XS Max with a thick case on fit perfectly! But it’s super small and I doubted it would fit. It fit perfectly and will most likely fit any phone or case unless it’s a circle shape. 100% recommended.

This cell phone lanyard is a good buy for the money. It securely holds your iPhone in place. The point of the lanyard is to avoid dropping and breaking, setting down on a counter and forgetting, or having your iPhone picked from your jean's hip pocket. It achieves that goal. Good idea, however, ... When you lean over the iPhone swings and could knock into something. Think of your work ID on a lanyard and getting in the way of you eating your lunch. Also, I found the weight of the iPhone to cause me to stoop over and within a few days I had a sore neck. I decided that I would only use the lanyard in special instances such as hiking through the woods or riding on a motorcycle to take iPhone pictures quickly without fumbling through my bag.

Worked well but the straps hit my sound buttons and the on and off button. That was super annoying, but if the buttons would have not been there or would have been something I would have held on too.

Firstly, this is a great convenience for a woman who never has pockets. I have an earlier model of this that I have used for a regular sized iPhone with a beefy case for three or more years and it is still stretchy and it still holds my phone securely against my chest where I can instantly access it while shopping and walking in a confusing city with map guidance. With all the things I have to juggle in my hands, this is a godsend. My phone never has been dropped and never has to be put down where it could be lost or forgotten.I bought this new style because I needed the same convenience for a much larger phone with a case. This model is stretchier, and I CAN get it on the phone, but I have to work too hard to do so happily. It really was not designed for a phone this big. So I would happily buy a larger version if one was made. And if the manufacturers think to do so, I would also ask them to consider beefing it up a bit because the larger phone is much heavier. Not that this won’t handle the weight but I know I am stretching its limits right now. Thanks!

I bought this product to specifically protect my cell phone while on a hiking trip on a mountain. I used it for several weeks leading up to my trip and had issues with the corner of the bungee blocking my phone's camera lens, which was an annoyance as I use my phone frequently and had many ruined shots. The worst thing however was while on my trip hiking on a mountain trail, I had my phone around my neck on the bungee lanyard. Suddenly there was a thud and I realized my phone had fallen put of the bungee holder, landing face down on a rock, shattering my screen. I had to pay to have my phone repaired.The entire purpose of purchasing and using this product was an epic failure. I don't normally give reviews, however this situation has prompted me to share my disappointing experience.

This is one of those products that makes you wonder why you haven't been using it long before now and why everybody else isn't using one. I've always fumbled for my phone, or been uncomfortable sitting on it, or worse yet losing it somewhere! My Gear Beast keeps my phone at hand when needed, keeps it safe and from being lost. The only thing I would suggest is to improve the lanyard where it is adjustable, like one of those leashes you see people walking dogs with or have their kids attached to so you could vary the length. The fixed length seems just a bit too long, but this is only a minor quibble. The quality of the lanyard is very good and the clip appears to be strong enough but I've seen better hardware on the market, but again, it should last for an individual who isn't too active... don't have my phone on me during mountain climbing or sports anyhow. Will always have one of these for my smartphone for sure.

The product description says this fits phones larger than mine (I have an iPhone 7) and that it fits over most cases (I have a LifeProof Case), but one of the corners was always popping off, leaving my phone very close to falling. The rubber bands on this lanyard are square rather than round, which means they roll/twist when you stretch them over your phone, which I think makes it less secure.

It slips inside the case easily. Nothing to peel and glue to anything. Easily removable too. I bought a nice adjustable neck lanyard to go with it. Took it on vacation hanging on my neck and was easily able to take photos and look up info along the way without the hassle of pulling phone out of pocket or bag a zillion times a day while sightseeing. Kept my hands free. Highly recommend.
