Note 4 and sports - are you annoyed with the Note 4 when jogging with it in your pants?

[Cool Jeff]

Ok as I am jogging 5 days a week in summer, it's very important for me to use the phone as my mp3 player, until now I used HTC phones, the latest M8 was a little heavy for my shorts, I had to tight my belt in a way it was hurting but not permit the shorts to slide!
I am nearly convinced to buy the Note 4 but I am afraid it will be the same problem of weight and add to it the size of the Note 4 which could annoy me when running, that why I am asking all the people who put their Note 4 in their shorts or sports pants when jogging if they are annoyed by its size and weight?
Don't tell me to use an armband, I had one for HTC M7 and never used it because it looked ridiculously big so with a Note 4...

So you're saying the M8 was too big and heavy making it awkward for jogging and you wonder if the bigger and heavier Note 4 will solve this problem?

The size of the M8 is not a problem in my pocket when doing sports, it's the weight which reached 198grm with the dot view cover on it, as for the Note 4 I think it's 176grm, but what worrying me more is the dimensions of the Note 4 as it could feel like a small book in your pocket when you jogg, so please what are your experiences?

SPI belts are great. Comfortable and doesn't bounce around when running.

What I do is I put shorts under my shorts and put my phone in my base layer shorts and it keeps my phone safe and really doesn't bother my legs when running

I agree, I have one and no issues when I go running.
