Hey guys. I figured I would do a review on the Ibera Bike Mount. I purchased the one that attaches to the stem mount.
No pictures, but I did not like it. I have a diztronic case and when inserting the phone inside the sleeve, it is a really tight fit. In landscape mode, the sides of the plastic is bunched that it would only be recommended to use in portrait mode. Was still a tight fit without the case. The phone was responsvie when using the touchscreen but I did not like the fit, especially as noted earlier.
I ended up buying Bicycle Bike Cycling Roswheel Frame Pannier Bag Front Tube Bag Phone Cell 100g Green, which can be found on Amazon. Expected delivery is in a few weeks from China but will definitely give a review once I am able to use it.
Good call on the "Bicycle Bike Cycling Roswheel Frame Pannier Bag Front Tube Bag Phone Cell 100g". I just bought one in green and for 7.95 plus free shipping its worth a shot. I'll post a my thoughts and some pics when I get it.

Looking forward to the report on how well the Nexus 4 fits into this... It's exactly what i've been looking for, but I haven't found one large enough for the N4 yet. I wish people would say what phone they have when they write reviews for these things on Amazon.
My solution is simple but practical by combing 2 cheap parts.
I have a universal bike stand, where the phone holder can be replaced to cover any phone. And I am talking for the holder that grabs exactly each phone. Before I had the holder for the Desire HD and now I changed that with the nexus holder. Example is the holder from here.

From this item I kept only the holder. The small part of base it's not needed.

Thought this was worth passing on. Been looking for a N1 case and came across Waterfield Designs SFBags - WaterField Designs - Laptop Bags - Laptop Sleeves - Checkpoint Friendly - Travel Cases - Made in USA. I was looking for something minimalist, and inexpensive, but not cheap, and they offer a product called the Suede Jacket for the N1 that seemed to fit the bill. In addition I, like many of you, am always looking for a good cause and through February 28, 2010, they will donate 5% of all Nexus One case sales to the international medical humanitarian organization, Doctors Without Borders, for Haiti earthquake victim relief. Again, for those of you who are looking for a case at a good price ($9.00) and contribute to a good cause, check out this company. Their customer support has been great so far, and I will be doing a review when I receive the product.
Link would of been nice but since I decided to search myself...

It looks good, little expensive IMO. 9 for just the sleeve and 13 for a sleeve with a pocket. Maybe if it was 5 bucks for the sleeve and 9 for the sleeve with a pocket I might bite. But seeing how a portion of this is going to Haiti that's understandable.. I'll give them that.
For me it's just a little too $ for something so simple that I can make at home with my sowing machine(though i'm sure most of you don't have one) I actually made the same thing but white for my iPod Touch about a year ago.
SFBags makes awesome stuff. Made in USA (last time I checked) ... I have a laptop bag of theirs, which was expensive, but it still looks new 3 laptops later
I looked at the bags, what is different in the bag they provides for the Nexus one with the sleeve which is supplied in the nexus one package?
Thanks.

So is this a sleeve/pouch the phone slides into, or is it like a gel case?
its similar to the neoprene case that comes with the phone, but since its suede its thinner material and allows the audio(which is already quiet) pass through a little better, PLUS this also has a small pocket on one side that can be used as a credit / id / business card pocket
Awesome sleeve
Just wanted to bump this thread because of an awesome product.
I just dropped my N1 on concrete while trying to get in my car/fiddling with keys . That's about a 4 ft drop. luckily it was in this sleeve. no scratches whatsoever. I have their neoprene sleeve for my laptop but this suede jacket is awesome. It feels just like a thin piece of cloth but it very resilient and cleans the screen too. not bulky at all.
I am looking for a holster that:
1. Fits my Epic without making me fight to get it out.
2. Has a belt clip that keeps the phone attached to my belt.
3. Won't break after a few days of usage.
I've been able to find ones by Case Logic and Eddie Baur (at Best Buy) but they both have a belt clip that doesn't wrap around your belt. They'll attach to your belt but get knocked off very easy.

I bought this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/LEATHER-HOLSTER...ccessories&hash=item43a22e69cb#ht_2774wt_1008
after watching a video of a guy doing a review on it. It fits the phone perfectly. It is very new so the leather is kind of stiff and the flap doesn't close completely unless I tap it down until the magnet takes over, but that will work itself out in time. It feels like fairly nice quality, and is cheap as well. Holsters for me typically last around a year max before they are falling apart, so I tend to buy the cheaper ones.
Holster is made of leather interior and exterior. Epic 4g fits in very snug for the first couple fits, and then after half a dozen in and outs is a perfect fit.
How durable are the belt loops?
I have the one from Sprint, no name on the case...it fits the phone perfectly, but the only thing I don't like about it is that with the belt clip on I'm unable to charge my phone because the top clip part goes over the charging port.

Probably not too durable for the cost, but it will last at least a year I think.
I'm using this, they work well for my needs. Just search Amazon for mor info.

"Galaxy S" Case
I'm using Samsung's own Galaxy S case. I got it at the Sprint store (25% off thanks to my Sprint premium discount) and is really really good, high quality leather and nice fabric on the interior.
The phone fits comfortably and is very elegant looking. I'm including pictures!!!

How much was it without the discount?
I use the Galaxy S case also. I haven't found a case yet that'd suit my needs better.
That's the downside of this case, the full price is $34, but considering how well the phone fits and how elegant it looks, it's well worth it.
Just as a side note, I didn't get the case right away with the phone, I searched everywhere for a good case after I got the phone, but couldn't find it, then one day I popped into the Sprint store to solve a problem with my wife's phone and stumbled on it and fell in love, the 25% premium discount made it a lot more attractive
Best Buy
Just got one at best buy that is a hard case and comes with a belt holster. So even when you take it off your belt, it still has the hard case so if you drop it, the edges are protected.

Here are some picks of the one I bought off ebay- expensive but very well made. It looks a little large on my belt but the phone fits real well.
I plan to do alot of Snowboarding this year, I need a case that will protect my phone hardcore, maybe just a solid case, doesnt even have to be functional.
Yes, sometimes I need my phone on the mountain cause I lose track of friends and need to call them.
Maybe get a normal case and put it in a waterproof pouch? I haven't seen many seriously protective cases for the sgs yet...

I use my Burton Esquire jacket ... all the protection I ever need.
I have also a great jacket (a nitro 20.000 waterproof ans 20.000 value as Breathable) but with low temperature the battery drains very fast (because I'll use the galaxy s as a camera @720p)... so i'll buy the Galaxy S Power Pack EBB-U10 that give me 3000mAh and a great extra protection for low temperature for the battery.....
Im not so much worried about water leaking in as I am about cracking the screen.
also, batteries will actually last longer in the cold. Its heat you have to worry about.
I do a lot of rock climbing and about to post asking for bluetooth headset advise!
Put the phone in a case-mate tough case which done a grand job even after a back fall from a boulder wall. Totally forgot I had the phone on me also know it was a lucky fall to not bend (break the screen) the phone.

The case comes in two parts
a rubber inside sleeve that I would imagine protects from shock. Outer skin is a hard plastic design for direct impact protection.
Case has a solid feel back and side edges but the weak points would be top/bottom edges that are only protected by the softer inside rubber.

I have been using this stand for about 1 month and it's great! The base is made out of solid metal so your phone/tablet won't tip over and fall. Also the top is a ball head where you can swivel the holder any way you want and you have a sticky pad where you can place your phone/tablet. When the pad isn't sticky anymore you can just wash it under running water with your finger and it will be sticky like the day you first got it! :fingers-crossed:
Best Price! http://amzn.to/15qMOs2
had this and didn't liked it , every time i removed my phone from the stand parts of the glue was on my case, kept a cheap case in my car so the glue will stay on it and not on my regular case . i prefer exogear type mounts.
video stand for galaxs s mp
I am looking for a stand to shoot some video with a galaxy s mp.
Is it good for that job?
I'm looking for either a case with a sturdy wrist strap or secure holder for my S6 to use while riding a zip line. Going to a retreat in a few weeks and per camp regulation, any "camera"
needs to have a wrist strap in order to bring it on the zip line. I could sneak it, but if you've ever ridden a zip line, there is a chance of dropping it, especially at the end when it suddenly slows down. I'll be about 100ft in the air for about a quarter mile. The only things coming up are leather wallet cases with straps, that's not going to cut it. Even something that can mount it, like a Go-Pro style mount would be good. I'm sure I could rig something, but I was looking for something inexpensive off the shelf. Any ideas?

Thanks Gomek111222, it's a good quality case, but that's an armband case. It isn't going to allow filming while in use.
