For slipping in the back of a roadie Jersey to hold a bigger mobile (iphone 6+ size), some cash and a card.

The more bargainlicious the better!

Whomever made that locsak website should be sealed in a locsak body bag and left to sweat in the desert for 24hrs then dropped in the river upstream of Niagra falls - how anyone can build such a piece of shite these days is astounding

Alpkit Aqua Wallit looks pretty good, not too expensive. https://www.alpkit.com/products/aqua-wallit

the loksak ones are a bargain. I think you get three for a tenner. they last ages and are totally waterproof. I've used mine whitewater kayaking as well as being on the bike in torrential rain.

Lifeproof cover for the phone and a Peli wallet for your cards and cash! It's what I have been using for ages now.

Sandwich bags have always worked for me.

Got one of those blue freezer bags at the min, been going since about November.

Think I'd die a little inside if I had to fork out for something especially...

Neoprine case for the phone and a heavy duty sandwich bag.

Something like above. Keeps phone away from cards/keys.

Been doing this for years and all phones have been happy.

Can you still swipe away on the phone while in the bag? Just that sometimes (well often at the moment) I'm riding in v.muddy conditions and the mud gets everywhere including gloves. My gloves are conductive so don't have to take them off but even if I do mud gets on the phone somehow.

Edit: Actually, I've just tried a plastic wallet thing that came with something I forget now and sure enough I can still use the phone with it inside. Cool. That's me sorted then. Though it's not a zip lock.
