Having used a TPU case on my E71 for the last two years, I've already ordered one for my new Desire Z. Now I'd like to find a leather case with a belt clip (preferably horizontal) that will hold the whole package. Does anybody have any recommendations?
Also, I saw mentioned in a few threads that a magnetic closure on the case can cause problems (potentially long-term) with the compass? Is there any truth to that? If so, I guess I want a case with no magnetic closure!

I am looking for a good holster that will hold the Nexus One while it has a case on. I have a transparent TPU case (have to show off the sexy engraving on the back). Does anyone have a recommended case that can hold or adjust to the nexus one while it has the added bulk of a case on it?
I am looking for something like the Seidio Innocase Case Holster which is here on Amazon.
If you check out down in the review area there is a video and a guy reviewed it and it seems to fit the Innocase inside the holster pretty well. Didn't look like it would fall out.
Anyone have any experience or suggestions with this? Let me know. Thanks.
EDIT: I actually just discovered that there are 2 versions of the Seidio Holsters; one for a device that does not have a case and one for a device that does have a case.
You can check out a good Youtube review of the Holster and Innocase here.
You can see that there is a special version of the holster here on Seidio's website.

IMO holsters = dropped phone... Either the phone pops out on its own, or gets bumped...
My thing is that I've had the dust under the screen problem so I wanted to get it out of my pocket. It does raise the risk of a drop though, this is true. Who wants to drop a $530 phone.

Oh, I use horizontal cases, have for years. Never dropped a phone from one, just of course you gotta be mindful when you're putting it in, taking it out.. And personally I always get them with a belt clip (to keep it in place on my belt) and belt loops. One case I had didn't have belt loops and I was always finding the phone in my car seat where it pushed off my belt.
I recently ordered this case... Hopefully coming in the next day or two. Otherwise I have some cheap cases which work, or my beat-to-hell Seideo case.. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001IM61D4/ref=oss_product
Only time I ever pocket carry a phone is when I have a new phone and I'm transitioning between the two, or sometimes on the weekend when I'm just lazing around the house.
I use a nite ize heavy duty holster. Size medium. It fits my otterbox defender and casemate tough case NP.
I use a cellet bergamo iPhone belt clip / holster nice and snug on my innocase 2

Im looking into purchasing a leather case, but im curious if the magnet in the case can have any effect on the phone? Especially the ones in the cheap cases.
like this one... ( i cant post link)
so type
Leather Case Skin for Samsung Galaxy S Epic 4G Sprint in the ebay search box and it should come up.
If anyone has any recommendations for other leather cases please let me know. Also feel free to share your experiences with leather cases.
Thank You

Havent had a problem, use a leather magnetic case from eddie bauer that I found at Best Buy mobile.
Does anybody have or use the Seidio leather case for the epic? Just wondering how well it fits the phone or how well the phone slides in and out of it. Also how easily can the magnet be clamped and unclamped while not looking at it.
I bought the bestsources (seller's name, not necessarily a description, though I've had good experiences with them ) case -- I had one for my Touch Pro, one for my N900, and now one for my Epic when it gets here.
In the meantime, I'm using the N900's case for it. Fitting, since I usually used the Touch Pro's case for the N900... :/ I wonder if I'm even going to use the Epic's case.
The magnet hasn't caused any problems at all with the Epic that I've noticed.

The leather case is designed to fit a bare device so it will slide in/out smoothly, The magnet is pretty strong but works fluently with the case.
The magnet does not affect the phone.
I bought a leather holster at the Sprint store today actually.
It has a magnet, but it is not near as strong as some of the ones I have had in the past, but it still holds the flap strong against the case.
This particular case even has the Galaxy S logo etched into the metal in the middle of the flap - yeah its sexy.
$34 at Sprint, and since its Galaxy S Branded, I think it's a good deal.
Hi,
I bought this HTC Desire HD months ago together with the otterbox case. I loop my handphone strap to the bottom of the case unfortunately, it only last for 2 months and the case snapped . Do you guys have any suggestions on a case where I can actually attach a handphone strap on? I tried searching on google. No result =(.
That's an interesting question.
As a hobbyist I reviewed a few cases I tried, although I've not tried the Otterbox.
This one has holes for a strap but I don't like the case itself:
ray-out Silky Touch Silicon Jacket:
This one has holes also but I wouldn't trust the case to stay on if you hold only the strap:
ray-out Rubber Coating Shell Jacket:
This leather one has a tag you can put a strap through:
SoftBank Leather Case:
The one I use comes with a strap but no way to attach it to the DHD:
Brighton Net TPU Case:
I'm assuming the holes shown in some of the cases are for a strap because they are very small.
i love these Krusell orbit case as I can clip it to my pants/belt, just turn it on briefly to check for time without taking it out of my belt or answer without flipping a cover; and it's soft leather and you can see the screen as some has a cover over it; as compared to the bodyglove one which does have a case (but it's hard); also some leather ones on ebay but has no clips; anyway, anyone found a krusell case for the g2x? i searched their site but no luck, so probably not, but just thought I asked.
thanks.
There's a few times in the past where I have used different cases that I really liked with a holster since there was not a matching holster with the case.
Looks like I'm going to run in the same situation here and was wondering if anybody had a good line of holster vertical or horizontal that they would recommend.
I'd prefer something with a rotating belt clip on it.
Thank you.
Pouch with a belt clip? So like an old Blackberry one? I have a pouch from Begoos on Etsy and its great, but it doesn't have a belt clip.
Not sure exactly what you are looking for but here is one I bought..... I posted it in a thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/accessories/dragonfly-universal-nylon-mobile-phone-t3289056
Search in Etsy. They have plenty of handmade pouches.
I should have said Holster I guess, but I figured folks would point me to case/holster combos. You know, like this...
http://www.amazon.com/TMAN-Leather-holster-Huawei-itself/dp/B0160LAOTO/
Sorry for the confusion, was a crazy night, let me update the OP.
Bump
This is the case/holster combo i use. Not the leather-y pouch like you linked, but i'm more of a fan of something more solid protecting the phone.

Thanks, I've sworn off of Seidio though. Cheap holsters that the clips break off of all the time, horrible customer service, and other issues I've had with them. I've found some excellent cases for the 6P, just need a holster to put it in. The TUDIA OMNIX is the one I'm trying to find a holster to fit right now.
Here's another one,: Encased Spring Holster.
Not sure on the quality, but I do highly recommend Seidio products though.

That looks very interesting. I did buy the Seidio one similar to that one for my Nexus 6P though . I bought the one for the iPhone 6 Plus. The fit wasn't perfect but very close. I stopped using it after my phone popped out once. The clip also cracked the top of my IntelliArmor TGSP.

That's interesting. I've been using the Seidio surface holster made for the iCrap 6+ with the Nillkin Nature case without any issues or the device popping out. The clip is flat on top of the device and not at an angle suggesting the device is too tall for the holster.

I'd never use Seidio products again. Terrible customer service/support, and the clips for the holsters break like candy.
I believe this Encased one is only for naked phones though.

This is great! i was looking for one of these when i got my phone when it launched. Gave up on looking for one after a couple weeks though. Just placed an order for this one. Thanks!!!
I broke the holster to my case when it got caught on a chair and broke the left side support. The holster is the type where the phone slides in vertically bottom to top. I don't like the type where the phone snaps into the holster or leather pouches.
Does anyone know if you can buy the holster ONLY - NO CASE for the nexus 6p?
I need a holster cover with swivel clip. I don’t care if it is made by same manufacturer as my current generic soft lining and hard plastic shell case. I have searched ebay, amazon and other sites in google but could only find replacement holsters if I buy another case. I have four different cases already so I am sure I can find one to fit the holster.
I have checked out options in this thread but checking if there are other ideas.

I have the same Nillkin case - is the Seidio holster you're using the one for an "uncased" iphone 6+ (http://www.amazon.com/Seidio-Spring-Clip-Holster-Non-Cased-iPhone/dp/B00OBWMSBW) or did it come with the iphone 6+ case? Thanks in advance

Using the Seidio surface case holster.
Ditto on Seidio holsters breaking. I had theirs for my previous phone and wouldn't recommend it. Their design is flawed. I had an encased holster for my S6 and it worked really well. Design was probably one of the better.
Bump. I'm looking for something similar. Problem is that most of the pouches I find online are cheap and will eventually tear or break somehow.
