This is the second case from the same seller in ebay. I bought a case for my SE Xperia last year and it has lasted and treated me well. This one is no exception. The leather is good, the belt clip swivels so that if I do not want to clip on the belt, I can clip it into my jean pocket.
Here's the ebay linky. Great seller and great communication. For the price I cannot beat the service and product.

UPDATE: New case with belt clip. The belt clip does not ratchet like the ebay one I have but this looks like a nice case to have.

Looks pretty good. I prefer the horizontal cases but I might get this one.

which is the best case to buy for compact size , protection , style and useability in regards to the capability for the belt clip. i have seen the aluminium and plastic one . how does the belt cilp work with that also can you get them in funnky anodised colours.
cheers
Don't know about funky colours but the leather Krussel case is excellent.
O2 standard Xda II case
On the subject of cases, anyone know if it's possible to get a spare belt clip for the standard O2 Xda II case? A tiny bit broke off mine after 1 month and it is now useless as the PDA falls off it.
Neither my local O2 shop nor the UK Xda II Service Centre can supply a replacement belt clip on its own - they want to hit me for £20 for a new case. If I do have to buy one, it won't be from them, that's for sure...

Why bother? Just get the Krussel, it's a much better case and way cheaper.
The Alu cases have a screw-in peg on the rear of the case which the belt clip locks onto. Others using the Alu cases have suggested glueing the post in place to prevent it unscrewing during normal wear.
The Alu cases also reduce the signal strength in weaker areas. I purchased the ProPorta model and only used it for two weeks before going back to the standard O2 case.
I am now the very happy owner of a ProPorta Crystal Case. It is very lightweight, adds almost no bulk and looks great.
Unfortunately it does not support a belt clip although I see no reason why you couldn't fabricate something yourself if you were so inclined.
I just got the clear case, its very sexy, wish it had a belt clip but you cant have everyting, there is a thread about the clear case with pics, it's like the alu case but that looses signal strength apparently, although does have sd card holders if i remember correctly and this doesn't...

its nice cos u can make and receive calls without the threat of the xda2's slippery surface sliding thru your hands... which is why i used to keep it in my standard case so much... i just got mine from pdamods.com for £15
the standard case offers little protection to the lower sides of the xda2 (not that i have scratches on mine as a result but some people moan of it) but there is a reason, basically it's so you can sit it in the docking cradle without taking it out the case...
moving on, I'm getting this silicon job that pdamods want £20 for, from ebay at only a £10 :lol: this seller has them for sale all the time - here is an example auction with picture http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5115014427&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT
it doesnt have a belt clip but has a loop by the looks for carry strap / neck strap type effort
Clips
I use cases utilziing the Ulti-Clip from http://www.theclip.com/.
My leather case from HandheldPlanet.com has one.
They are very solid clips. I used a stick-on post on my aluminum case -I took off the screw-in post. Now all my phones/gadgets have the same clip.
Is anybody making a leather case that does NOT have a snap closure, similar to the EB Case for the original XDA? The Krussel is nice, but that strap/snap closure is annoying and slow to use.
Are there any kickstand cases available like T-Mo sold for the MT4g?
Bump.......
The T-Mobile Body Glove case has a kickstand as part of the Belt clip. Not a svelte design but its functional.
I do believe both body glove Hard case and the belt clip case have kick stands. only ones I have so far.
Do a search on ebay for em. A lot of new stuff there from last week.
Is the only case in the store the silicone one on their site?
They had a body glove one there also.
With an obnoxious clip, lol. Do they have any not silicone and not stupid?
The body glove case can have the belt clip removed. The case fits great.
Go on Amazon and get a 3 dollar silicon case man. So cheap and such good quality. On my phone or I'd link to exact one.

i bought the silicone because I needed a case asap while I wait for the HTC one. In the mean while i got a tpu amzer case that should be comming next week.
The silicon case is nice for a silicon case but tbh i dont like silicon cases, they come of, look ugly and bulky and attract lint. I saw the body glove but it looked ugly with the 2 colors (why not make it all black body glove, **** duo tones) and its pricey at 30 bucks (i will only pay 30 bucks for seidio, not bodyglove).

I love everything about my Charge except the chintzy case.
I didn't care about that as I always use a hardshell case on any phone to help me hold it better and for protection.
I tried the OtterBox Commuter and the Incipio but both came out of my pocket with White lint covering the black silicone parts which irritated the hell out of me.
The rocket fish case from BestBuy is awesome, but almost too small although I really like it. The shiny black hard silicone case from VZ is also a great option and easy to remove for battery swaps as it's all one piece.
My all time favourite that I use everyday now however is the two piece BodyGlove. It gives an awesome grip on the phone, is not too bulky and is fairly easy to install/remove.

I'm looking for a Body Glove for the Droid Charge that actually includes the swivel belt clip with kickstand. I've returned 3 of these already, from different sources, even Walmart, and even though they advertise that it comes with the swivel belt clip and kickstand...it doesn't. So I called the manufacturer, and they said they don't make them like this anymore for the Charge, and they don't have any of the ones with the belt clip left in stock. Now, I've asked about a half dozen different sellers on ebay that advertise the case with the belt clip. But none of them actually do come with the belt clip. Can anyone point me to a confirmed source that actually sells these with the belt clip/kickstand? I really would like to have one. Thanks.
I took a slight gamble buying this belt clip for the S3, but it fit perfectly with the bumper from Google (or Chinese replica), and its only $3.20 (shipped from the U.S.). The clip is great for the price with a soft felt inside and rugged outside with a 360 degree belt clip. The N4 slides in perfectly. and doesn't move. Here's the link:

Be sure to click buying options and add the third one down for $3.20 from LowerPriceUSA that ships from CA.

Sounds great! Too bad I already have the Seidio Active and Surface holsters...the Seidio Active Holster for the N4 fits our phone with bumper. And the Surface for the N4 fits the N4 that has most tpu cases.
You have any pics of it installed? And how is the holster when trying to reach for it when a call or text comes in?
Will post some pics up tomorrow, but you need to slide the phone out for a phone call or text as it doesn't clip in. It can be worn horizontal or vertical.

I'll give it a shot for that price. Hopefully it will work with my Ionic case.
