Polycarbonate N1 Case

Anyone have this case? Have an EVO and wondering if I should watch for them to make an EVO case. I really want a polycarbonate case, one of the only ones I could find.

I have the Seidio Innocase II combo with Belt clip holder.
I'm going to buy this and check it out, hopefully it fits the spring clip holder.

I ordered this a few days ago. Ill let you know when I get it. If this works the way I want it to, this should be one of, if not the thinnest nexus case to date.

Doesn't look like it offers much protection to the top and bottom of the phone though.

I received mine a couple days ago. Totally bummed out about it. Doesn't snap on firmly on the sides and is loose. I had to improvise and apply some double-sided tape in it so the phone doesn't pop out of the case. Its not THAT loose but again its not firmly snapped on in there to the point where I feel comfortable with it.
I have the seido innocase II as well and I like it a lot better except for the fact that it slightly bubbles up my screen protector where the edges overlap (I have this OCD of flawlessness and it drives me nuts).

[Q] Leather Cases

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.

[Q] how are there no belt clips/holsters yet?

i cant believe that the only things available specifically for the G2 are just skins and covers. ive been carrying my phone in my pocket for a week now and its driving me nuts. i had a seidio spring clip holster for my nexus and every blackberry before that had a leather belt holster and my phones before that all had belt holsters like my nexus. where they all at for the G2? i may have to go hunting for a universal belt holster which will typically have some kind of compromise, be it a non-rotating belt clip, a belt clip that can easily slip off, rough parts on the inside to scratch the phone, overly powerful magnets, etc.
is everyone just putting their G2 in their pocket?

i thought they had the belt clip with the rotating thing at the tmobile stores. It is with the stock "gel black" case and it had a stub that sticks out and you can slide into the belt clip.
it sucks to put it in my pant pocket, i've been going out w/ jackets lately so i put it in there.

At frys electronics I got a top load belt clip messanger case from cellet for 15 bucks. Micro suede lining its pretty nice. Only bad part is no swivel on the clip.

Well there are alot of after market case that you can find at any electronic stores like best buy,frys etc that will fit the phone or you can always use ebay or amazon

Dude Tmo stores have atleast 2 options...1 from Tmo and the other from body glove. The BG one has a kick stand all...weighs a ton though...

htc evo pouch works good with the g2 ive bee using my dads evo pouch

The faux leather G1 clip/holster fits the G2 very nicely. And it was only $2 when T-Mo was doing their clearance sale.
Go on ebay and pick out a holster that fits the G1 and it will fit the G2.

I received my G2 one day before the official release, went to my local tmo store and promptly had them install screen protection and the closest thing that works for me is a toploading leather tmo holster made for the MT3G slide, it was a snug fit but being leather it broke in (stretched) quick, bad side effect is some of the leather die rubbed off onto the grey corners of the G2 (anybody know best way to remove pls let me know). it fits close to the body, looks professional and the clips slips into jeans pocket or belt.

maybe they stopped making them because everybody realized how lame they make you look haha

I have 2 belt clips for my G1 and the G2 fits just fine. I bought them off ebay.

The cellet holster I got fits great.... made for iDrone4 so yeah this device is almost the same dimensions so just pick one that is close. Body glove shells are the sux stay away!

The dye on those fake leather holsters messed up my G1. I don't know how to get those stains off. Isopropyl alcohol didn't work. Any suggestions?

thanks to those that actually provided useful replies. sounds like i should look for G1 items. guess ill head to microcenter and bestbuy and see what they have.

Using the HTC Branded leather holster I found at bestbuy and really liking it. Suede lining makes me feel better about not having a hard case on my phone.

i picked up three leather belt holster from walgreens for 10 bucks. to the guy with the lame comment, ya it looks real professional digging your phone out of your pocket when its rigging.

I'm with you. I haven't seen anyone under the age of 50 rockin a holster or belt clip for their phone since 1998.
That being said, I'm sure there's plenty of universal type pouches with belt clips that work with the G2. Its a pretty standard size phone.

Ouch!
I guess pocket protectors & belt clip/holsters are for us nerds only. Shiz, i thought i was still cool rockin' my startac & nextel i90 phones as backup.

I was using a Cellet holster that I had for my Blackberry, and it fit really well (except my G2 poked out of the top a little bit). The dye inside started to rub off on the grey parts of my phone near the trackpad. I couldn't get it off either.
"Luckily" I had some issues with the power button and got the phone replaced. With the new one, I applied a full matte PhantomSkinz and am using a Belkin slim holster meant for an iPhone 3G/3GS. It's a little tight, but will probably stretch out over time.
The inside is grey, so if any of the dye does rub off, I probably won't notice. Plus I have the skin there I can just replace.

i got my otterbox case the defender

im very impressed on its fit, function all work and plugs that keep out dirt till needed.
tmobile gs4

I'm using the aegis and waiting for commuter!(for comparison purposes!)

Do you feel like the phone / case fits in the belt holster a bit loosely? It doesn't seem as secure as the one I had for my GS3?
Curious what others think?

well i cant compare as this fits good for me

I also just got the defender and it does fit the phone very nice. But I don't like how it fits in the holster, it feels secure but almost imposable to get it snapped in on the first try or without having to look to get it aligned. Once in the holster it's also difficulty to remove as the release point is on the top, if you have it rotated on your belt.
I'm currently using the Platinum case with holster from Best Buy which is the same as the Seidio surface combo. No where the protection as the Otterbox but very easy to snap in and out the holster.
I'll keep looking for a little ore protection with an easy belt clip function.

was just at BB today; tried the platinum out.
piece of shi.t
return it asap.
get otterbox.
**edit
look into the trident kraken series for s4

I will say otterbox did a better job with the screen ptotector this time. It fits the phone very good

I had a question with the defender case. When you guys first got the case did u notice there were bubbles between the screen and the screen protector? Do they eventually disappear? Attached is a picture of it. (Sorry for bad lighting)

Looking for stand alone holster suggestions.

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.
