That case looks so beautiful

So my case arrived today!!! I gotta say this is a nice case. S\"Surface" is a good name because it really does not add any bulk to the phone. I am amazed at how slim the case feels on this phone. I ordered the belt holster with it and I've had holsters in the past and really did not use them because they always felt big and bulky. Not the case with the Seidio Surface Combo.

The belt clip has felt lining. I'm not sure about the case itself.

Just placed my order for the blue case with the belt clip

Not difficult to remove if you read the directions first!
I tried and had difficulty at first, then I consulted the instructions. Piece of cake!!!

Infuse case with built-in kickstand

Has anyone seen or found a case for the Samsung Infuse that has a kick-stand in it?
This would allow you to place the phone on a table and not have to lean it against things to watch movies or whatever.
Thanks

I've seen them on e-bay.
Cranky...

there does not appear to be anyone currently offering them ...I too have seen them..but can not seem to find one now

Yeah the only ones I found with anything resembling a kick stand was the one or two that had that plunger looking thing you attach. Thanks

This is mind boggling. I thought for sure a kickstand case would be out by now.

They can easily make a battery back that houses a kickstand just make it a little thicker.

Found this, not really a case with kickstand, looks like you set your phone in it and use it like that. Battery charger, with kickstand made for Infuse. Sorry, I'm new to this Xda, so they wont let me post a link. Go to CellularAccessory.com and search Samsung Infuse Kickstand.

If you had looked two messages up you would have seen that I had posted that they are on E-Bay.
Since nobody seemed to want to do a search for themselves, here's the link:

thanks, been looking for one.

Sprint has a very nice carbon fiber case with a built in kick stand for their sgs2. I know the screen size is the same as the infuse but I believe its thinner and the form factor is more curved, not sure if it will fit.

i have the exact same thing at home for my nightstand!

While it is not a case I found something that works well for me. I use 2 binder clips as it makes a great stand for me and I can keep it in my pocket for when I need it.
Take a Large Clip and 1 Medium binder clip.
The large one keep like normal while the medium one you turn both of the silver rings to one side so you have a backwards L with the back part sticking straight up.
Then take the large clips and clip it on the silver rings as clost to the black as you can.
This holds the phone very very well and I am able to watch movies during my lunch with a normal head set pluged into it. So this does mean my head truns some but not to much and it does not move at all. This works with or without the silicon ruber thing around the phone. With out the rubber you can also do it with the small and medium binders to make it even smaller. I think lifehacker has pic on doing this.
I hope this will help someone.

i keep this in my wallet..

Atrix 2 Otterbox case and car mount!

Ok i love Otterbox cases. I have used them with all of my phones for years. What i don't like is the fact that they don't have a car dock for use with the case...........So i made one.
I had to contact Otterbox when i broke the clip on my holster. They sent me 2 for free! My wheels got to turning and i had an old windshield mount for a TomTom gps.
I mounted the old holster to the old gps mount. I drilled holes in the holster so that the camera will work while in the mount and so it can be charged. Not the prettiest mount but it works well!

Nice. I'm going to be doing something similar, shortly, with an Atrix 2 Defender holster.
I picked up one of these to use as the base, though...
http://www.amazon.com/Pro-Fit-International-NS-56-08-G3-Specific-2008-2010/dp/B002OHD8NI
Couple that with an aftermarket Bluetooth module that I'm going to install, and a dash-mounted USB port for charging, and I should be able to keep the wires to a minimum.
Any advice on cutting the holster? I've got an old Dremel that I intend to use, and my plan is to cut away the middle section of the holster's bottom, so I have easier access to my microUSB port.
Regards,
Corporate Dog

cool
But the defender case is too bulky to fit in the "phone" pocket of my many cargo pants/jeans/shorts.
So I just use this with my Otterbox Commuter Case.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004M8ST18/ref=oh_o02_s00_i00_details
It works quite well. It's been mounted to the windshield of my truck for 2 weeks now, and is still gripping strong. I think it'd work w/ just about any smart phone. I'm thinking of getting 1 for my wifes car, for when I'm driving. They're not expensive.

From what i can tell the phones are very similar in size. I am going to grab the bike mount from this site and take my chances. They all use the same piece to hold the phone, so I will update this post with my findings.

Won't fit. I have Defenders for both the original and the Atrix 2 and even checked. Atrix 2 has a larger screen size and therefore needs a bigger case than those custom designed for the original.

i found my old slipgrip mount that was built for the htc desire hd with the otterbox defender. It fits the atrix 2 with its otterbox defender perfectly.
I love these things because they have so many mounting options (clamps, bike mounts, suction cups ect.

ANY case will make make it hard to mount. the there is NO tolerance for any type of case. If you have a case you may want to look at the universal one that clamp the sides.

This dock works fine with the Trident Kraken on my phone. The Kraken and the Otterbox Defender are probably the two thickest cases on the market so if you want one which works with any case get it:

...there's another thread in here on the features. I am really pleased with mine.

with this mount, you cant fit a case on it. If you take a look with the phone installed there is no way a case can fit in it. You may have a slightly different model of it

The lower arms are adjustable. This allows them to extend far enough for the lip to sit in front of the phone with the Kraken case on it. The top arm has plenty of length to clamp the phone in the Kraken case.
I've been driving with the phone in it's Kraken case secured in this window mount for the past week. I realize it's more expensive than the $8.00 mount on ebay but I think if you can afford this phone and need a windshield mount you can probably spend a few extra $$ for a better mount.

i took a video on my way into work this morning on a really crappy road. and my suspension is set Medium.

your mount is adjustable. the one that i posted is not. just depends on each persons need. Not sure if yours does but this one has a cutout for flash and camera if you want to take a video while drive. A important feature for me.

updated with a video test.

will post some pics and video review when I get it.

looks like a decent option, I have my Sprint branded mount that I have from when I had my EVO lte, it worked great for my S3 and now my S4 :good: very similar to this mount actually, I did have to remove the charge port though

bump, i saw a thread about mounts

Nexus 6P Vehicle Mount thread (car holder, not universal))

I'm looking for a vehicle mount for my 6P but can only find the universal type right now.
If anyone else is in the market for a non universal for one please post your findings here!

I always use a Dashmount bracket specific to the vehicle and a Brodit active cradle specific to the handset. Usually takes Brodit a little while after a new phone has been released to make a new cradle.

Yeah, I'm looking for one as well. The previous universal one I had is too small for the 6P. It will just precisely fit for my Xperia Z.

I've got this one, one of the best mounts I've ever found, super sticky gel suctioncup that stays in place forever, hot ass NM summers, cold winters, stays there.
Already know it fits because I put the verus case in it, fits perfectly. Automatic too, you push your phone in and the arms snap shut. Push the two toggles and the phone comes off.

Don't know anything about them, but I saw a bunch of SlipGrip mounts when I was looking around on eBay:

I have this for my Galaxy S6 Edge (The S6 attaches to it without a magnet but it comes with one).
I loved it. I hate those suction ones that go on the windshield.

Unfortunately,
I'm not going to use it with my 6P as I don't think it has magnets to hold it up and I don't want to use the strip as I want to show off that Nexus logo.
Alas, I'm giving it to my girlfriend.
I highly recommend a CD one like the one I linked though, it's nice and sleek!

Check out ram mounts. They have a great selection that fits all types of vehicles.
Here's mine which is custom mounted for my MINI.

That mount setup looks terrific! How does the Ram mount connect to that custom arm. I believe the ram mount has a ball joint on the back, and I'm curious as to how you did yours up.

Pro Clips are well worth the money. 6p will be the 3rd phone that will go in mine. Still good as new.

Thanks! You're correct. My friend cut the ball off and drilled a hole through. Fits great!
Ram mounts came out recently with a modified version, similar to what we did but it also comes with a screw /nut set.
