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

I bought just the Platinum Series case that best buy sales it was a very nice case. GPS friendly could still get a lock inside my house, the inside was lined with a velvet like material and it had a very tight fit. The only thing I didnt like about it was the volume and power buttons were exposed, so I took it back and had them order me a Platinum Defense Series case. It has the rubber around it like the otterbox defender series. The guy at the store said you could use it with or without the rubber.Very nice looking cases .... and they also come with a belt clip.
Suppose to be in on Tuesday so I will let yall know how it is.
Platinum series 34.99
Platinum Defense series 49.99
Rebranded Seidio
Yeah I work at Best Buy and had one for a while, got the Case-Mate Tough Case. It is actually a rebranded Seidio (Innocase) product, and is pretty nice overall. However, the Tough Case is my favorite so far...

I have the Platinum Series, and love it. HIGHLY recommended. If done correctly, when removing the bottom cover of this case, it also removes the sim cover.
I have a platinum case very well designed. Had one for the Captivate too.
Any links to this case?
I have one of these. Pauz. And I reallllyyy like it
For links, go to Best Buy's website and search 'HTC Inspire', they come up.
I have the case and I absolutely love it.
I have this same case and no complaints here.
So I know I posted about this case earlier in the thread... But mine just took a tumble down 4 stairs and slid on the pavement. The case took the beating, and the phone is fine. Well worth every penny spent on it.
+1 here too. I love the case, I ride my motorcycle with the phone clipped to my belt, never worry about losing it.. Nice fit, secure lock into the case..
I highly recommend it.
This case it is useless if ur using it with and screen protector. It does pull the bottom edges on them. I have use both a Clear Coat and an Skinomi with the same result
Since this is a rebranded seidio case can the platinum case be used with the seidio rugged case known now as the convert case.
Pt case
On my Inspire 4G, I have the Pt case, with a Zagg screen cover and they work very well together. I don't feel the same damage prevention security I did with my otter on the iphone, but very close. That being said, I know this phone is not separating from the belt lock down case. With the case had a kickstand tho...since the phone doesn't.

I disagree. I use my case WITH a screen protector. you are being too hasty to put your case on. I was able to reproduce this with mine, but I had to put the casing on pretty quickly to do it.
SIDENOTE: Once you apply your new screen protector, wait 25 minutes or so before putting your case on. This will allow the screen protector to stay adheared to the screen.
Wow, 35 dollars for the same AMAZON sells for 20?

I can't decide which case to go for. Maybe some of you could post pictures of cases installed on your N4 so we can see how they really look and fit?
I would but my only camera is my phone...
This is my Shock sock n4 case. Ten pounds from eBay, genuine leather not the pu stuff. Stitching started to come undone but dabbed super glue on and its OK now.
I'm looking for a leather case with space for credit cards but they all seem to be not leather.

e-cell: "PROTECTIVE SNAP-ON HARD MATT FINISH BACK CASE COVER FOR LG NEXUS 4 E960" eBay #200876235150 @ £2.65 with free shipping.
very pleased with it (esp. for the price!)
(i added the wriststrap hitching holes myself with a dremel)
i also have a generic belt clip case like this (eBay £3.99 shipped):
Again very happy with this, albeit since aquiring the hard case, the fit is now a bit tight so i may end up getting the slightly larger samsung note II version of same.

Anybody whit the new Ballistic case?
The EVO 3d I'm using as a temp while I wait for my 4 is small enough to comfortably put in my pocket. My Note 2 was not. and the 4 is bigger...
I have been a fan of the Seido Surface cases in the past but the one weak point is the belt clip.
I've broken so many of them that it's ridiculous. I went through 4 holsters in 2 years on my Note 2 alone.
And I do not even want to add up the holsters on prior phones..
I need something metal that can take a small bump. I'd like a semi thin case like the surface but the holster has to be strong.
Can anyone recommend a sturdy clip on holster case?
Have you thought of moving to a leather holster case? I was in the same boat until I went to a leather combo with a metal clip.

I have tried some holster cases but they were either to clumsy to retrieve and store from quickly , or the clips were terrible like the rest.
Since I have never owned an Otter box I cant speak factually, but they have always seemed so bulky and the poly clip looks the same as the rest. Are the clips actually more durable compared to say the Seido clips?
There pretty much the same I've broke a few Otterbox's also….. Check out Turtleback Holster Leather Case fits Samsung Galaxy Note 3 without a Protective Case, interior fits 5 7/8" X 3 1/4" X 3/4" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I9LM2VW/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_zlcnub0RDDPV2
Although they're not yet released Seidio has several models available w/ holster.

I love the Seidio case/holster combos! (Specifically the Surface with Holster) My past two phones, however, have been the slip case/holster combo sold in the Verizon store for around $24.95. The reason I went with those is two-fold: It was available right away when I purchased the phone, and it is just slim and protective enough that it doesn't make my large phone into a gargantuan phone.
My Note2 in either an otterbox defender or trident aegis case lives in one of these. It's quite adjustable. Normally I have the retention strap removed unless I know I'm going to be in odd locations and I think it may fall out, though I'd have to be upside down for that to happen, but I've found myself in that position for work sometimes... I've broken every plastic clip from three different vendors, so this was the strongest holster I could find. Pretty sure I'll break before it does.

What is the lanyard/cord for at the top? It looks easily removable but wondering what purpose it serves.

These are actually made for two way radios like military and police carry, so the strap is to keep it in place.

That link doesn't state it's for a Note 4 but the fact that it's a preorder leads me to believe it is although when you navigate to the Note 4 page on Seidio's website almost everything states "under development".
http://www.seidioonline.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-4-s/9431.htm
Other thing is Best Buy sells a comparable case made for them by Seidio for $20 less but they don't have them in stock yet. BB calls it a Platinum Series.

Yes, I missed that. Since it's not on the Note 4 page do you know if they have a release date for the Convert Combo somewhere on their website?

I have no idea. Maybe someone can give them a call or shoot over a email asking about the convert cases for the note. I'm more into slim type cases because I think it just looks more clean and I don't like the extra bulk, I usually don't drop my phones.

I called them last week and they said there was no ETA for the Convert combo. I noticed the Surface has the release date on Seidio's Note 4 webpage and I look at it daily so I'm hoping the Convert combo gets a release date soon.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MP3OWVI/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3RZJ9YYQ3ASDK
If it doesn't I'm going to order the above case as it's the only one I could find with covers for the mini USB, S Pen & headphone ports with a holster but it doesn't have a kickstand. Amazon shows an ETA of 10-27 in my shopping cart so I'm holding off ordering it hoping the Seidio will become available in that time frame.
Now the other problem with the Seidio is apparently no one offers a tempered glass screen protector that covers the flat portion of the screen without the halo effect.

I was looking at the supcase also but it's the bulk that bugs me.. The note is already a big phone... I'll be using this ebay case plus clip until I get a seidio.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Black-B.../371164711314?ssPageName=ADME:L:eek:U:US:1120
Not really a bad case... Just needed a belt clip for my note cuz I carry 2 phones, cigarettes, lighter, Chapstick, keys and wallet on me all the time lol. The only flaw with the ebay one is that it's not very pretty, but I'll choose that over a bulky case any day.

I've got to get something soon as I'm deathly afraid of dropping this expensive phone and damaging it. Actually I wouldn't have minded waiting another month or so to get the phone so I could have had the case beforehand but the $200 trade in deal was too good to pass up. A case with button covers is much easier for me to use too as I'm always accidentally touching the side buttons and I can grip the phone better.
For first time I found a tpu bumper on eBay today. Just like the one on my nexus 4. Also it comes from CA, AND IS 7$. Hoping it works with my qi back

No idea how to get a link on here. Go to eBay and type

Pretty sure this has a plastic backing, like any other case, and not a "bumper" design like Nexus 4.
I don't see in the pics any evidence of a back. I'll know soon enough. I'll report back. In the pics it shows nothing like a back
Tpu bumper very good
I RECIEVED my TPU bumper I ordered off Ebay. Very good. Reminds me of my Nexus4 bumper. S really hoping it would work with the QI backplate, but it doesn't. ALMOST.... But no. The bottom of the phone with the Qi case is just a tad in the way, so it doesn't allow the bumper to extend enough to keep the screen off the surface face down. Man, it would no take much of a change to make this work, I whisk someone would catch on and do it. They would sell a bunch. 6$ and it's everything I'd expect a true bumper to be. I'm still using it, just gotta wait I guess to use my TYLT VU
