What is that elastic band for? Not the one you put you hand through. The other one. How does it work??

I don't really use it, but I think it keeps the cover flat when you don't set it up as a stand.

It's stretches up and over the edge fo the tablet to hold the case open when using the band you put your hand through.

description on another site says:Interior hand strap improves one-handed reading/viewing. Rubber band in the back to hold the front cover open.

Its just there to hold the Galaxy Note tight closed, and you have the choice to ignore it and not use it also.

I believe it is for holding papers but I cannot be sure. In any case, I don't use the thin elastic strap. I do, however, use the thick one as you described with my hand to prevent dropping my tablet while using it one handed.

Go to Amazon's web page for the case and one of the pictures shows you what the thin band is for. It holds the cover to the tablet when the cover is folded over.

Maybe you've already answered this for yourself, by now, but if not, here goes. There is a "tacky", non-slip surface on the side of the wide part of the sling that rides against your clothing. It basically "grips" by friction. Hope that helps.

The elastic band is pretty standard, king of like a blood pressure cuff. where it goes through the back of the case exposes enough of the rubbery material to be right next to your arm that it helps it stay in place. I usually wear short sleeves, but I still put it up on my upper arms (over top of my sleeves) so I can see my screen, and to keep it closer to my center for less movement so I don't have to tighten it as much. It stays in place pretty well.

these are just used instead of elastic bands. they are much more gentle on your hair and will reduce breakage. very comfortable to wear even to sleep in.

It's alright I bought the new one some months ago (band)to replace the mine that its elastic was wide further. It works perfect and it's brand new.

The elastic is a pull tie to help in opening the case. The other half of the case has a snap that closes the case. You hold the one side by the elastic and pry the other side open. It works well. Hope this helps.

The machine doesn't use elastic bands. I grip the black strip at the top of the back rest & then use my muscles for the pull-ups. I also turn on my sides & do 50 crunches each.Thanks for asking.

No elastic band to hold it closed. It has a little magnet tab that closes it

Just a guess: I think they're used as the company's signature reminder that the product improves the elasticity and tightness of the face. I'm just making that up tho, so you might want to ask the company. Meanwhile, I've found these rubber bands useful from time to time.

The band is stiff material and has no elasticity unlike my current one I use. I have some swing in my arms when I run and do not believe it will stay in place. My current band fits snug but with the elastic material does not restrict blood flow in arm. Since the band I purchased is stiff and short I will just return and not try it. The material is smooth neoprene on the inside so it may not stay in place I cannot determine that without wearing it.

You hook the unit to the back of your hand with the elastic band so you can use both hands.

Depends on the lens, I think. I never use the elastic band attachment. The dangling cap is a distraction. Just put the lens cap in your pocket. When you lose them, buy more. That's why they sell them in packs of four :-)

There is an elastic band that folds over to keep the flap close. Works well.

I do not know the answer to these two questions and have often wondered myself why the bands are there. Fortunately mine have never broken and I have just left them alone. Sorry I could not be more helpful.

It goes around like an elastic headband. I bought one and was unhappy with it. First it is easier said than done to get it on and second without pins it did not stay in place especially when changing sheets.

When I owned one this spring (check out my review in the product section) I went to the dollar store and grabbed 2 of those Velcro style stretchy bandage wraps (not sure what they're actually called) for a $1. They resemble the wraps that you get after you donate blood, that you're supposed to keep on for a couple of hours after you donate. They're stretchy, extremely comfortable and easy to use since it basically sticks onto itself. Plus they're washable/reusable. So I'd rotate between them and the armband. I'd use one while I wash and let the armband air dry overnight. They're only a buck a piece so I got 2 in case I forgot to wash the armband I'd have a spare to use. Just put the module where you normally wear it. Cover with the wrap and you're all set. Another bonus, people don't bug you with the same question over and over "What the hell is that on your arm?" . They just assume you sprained your arm/shoulder. :) It's a cheap alternative. I couldn't get myself to pay the ridiculous price the armband was going for on the GWF website. Hope that info helps someone. Cheers.
