Anyone seen an armband or maybe either a waist pack for a running belt that would hold the Note 4? I'm trying to find something that can hold it in an Otterbox case without having to take it out of the case for each workout. I can't even find an armband that would fit it naked and it doesn't fit in my Nathan running belt's pouch.
Won't let me post a link, but search SPIBelt on Google. I use one with my note 2 with a large case, haven't tried to fit my note 4 in it yet. They work great, if you have it adjusted right, and are wearing it correctly, it doesn't bounce around at all, and you can hardly tell it's there.
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-SUPCA...B00MP3P6X6/ref=cm_sw_em_r_dp_Ow6tub1DH3SDJ_tt This one looks very promising but I haven't pulled the trigger yet...
*EDIT* I made the purchase now. The price has gone up from $7.99 to $11.99. I waited long enough..missed the deal but will really be kicking myself if it goes up in price again.

I second the spibelt
http://www.spibelt.com/products/spibelt/large-pocket-spibelt
This is what I purchased for my note 3 and still using it for my note 4. I have an armband for the note 4 as well but I can't tell you how ridiculous it feels and looks having a 5.7 inch phone on your arm. Might as well carry a boombox like the 80's...Seriously though I catch a good ribbing from friends who say I have a fanny pack but the spibelt is barely visible and you don't even realize it's there, holds phone, keys, cards, etc... I can do running and jumping rope and nothing moves in it. It just stays put, it's fantastic.

This belt goes over my shorts and my shirt covers it, nobody sees a darn thing unless I am pulling my phone out of it. But if you think a gigantic phone strapped to your upper arm looks any less funny, you are nuts! Besides I could care less how it looks, it holds everything I need it to so when I go jogging I don't have a phone on my arm, and keys jingling in my pocket. If I need to change music I just use my bluetooth headset or moto 360.

I have one of those too. Used it for my note 2 since using an arm band was extremely awkward. Lol. Works real well.

So.. I ordered the SUPCASE Armband. I would not recommend this case in any way for using it as an armband while running. It's basically just an extremely flimsy Silicone/TPU bumper case with two holes in the back for the strap to run through. From the pictures on amazon it looked like it was going to be made out of some sort of Plastic/Silicone. But I wouldn't dare go running knowing that any minute my $700 phone to flip right out.. or go kaaboom from the silicone ripping around the band. Anyways.. have it on eBay now.
Bump.
I want an armband because in the gym I use equipment and do exercises that would put pressure on something attached to my torso. Any more learnIng since November 5?

So this is the one I've made my everyday use. Absoutley ZERO rain or sweat gets into it. Stays in place and super comfortable. Hands down the best armband I've ever used. Expensive option in my opinion but after owning its worth every penny. They should carry these in your local Best Buy store.

So this company makes one called the i-40 and is their biggest model designed to hold both Note 4 & iPhone 6 plus. The one I have (i-35) will not allow for any case at all.. Very tight fit and from their website says its designed for the Note 3 but once I tried a test fit in best buy I decided that one would work for me. I can only assume that the next largest one should be able to fit the Note 4 with a case...no problem. It's also $5 more for the i-40

It is snug with a Spigen Neo Hybrid case on, so it might not fit with the Otter Box. I use it at the gym only so I don't know how water proof it is.

So, long story short...
I was stupid enough to drive off from a parking lot with my phone on top of the roof of the car.
Returned some time later to circle the parking lot, looking for it with no luck. Figured it must have held on through some turns due to the rubber corners, so I left the lot and retraced my route, leading back to a main street. Crawling at 10 mph at 2 o'clock in the morning, I held on to the hope that I would spot it.
Seeing a black object on the side of the road, I pulled over thinking I'd finally found it... only to discover it was someone else's expensive smartphone! As you can see from the pictures below, I think it's a Motorola Droid X with the screen smashed to bits.

Disheartened, but still not giving up, I kept driving. A couple of blocks down, I saw another black object and stopped in the middle of the road. It was the Otterbox's soft inner case... a few feet away from it I found the naked Inspire, and its battery. As you can imagine, I was already quite happy at this point.. but I couldn't see if the phone worked or not without the battery cover. So I made a u-turn, circled around twice, and found my battery cover as well as the Otterbox's outer shell, which was squished on the sides, with some of them flattened.. obviously run over by a car.
Back in the car, I inspected my phone (no scratches on the screen, some scrapes at the corners and around the lens, but all cosmetic), popped the battery in, and it didn't boot. I realized that I'd put the battery in the wrong way, and tried again. White screen, HTC logo, and CM7 boot! My phone had just survived falling from the roof of my car and being run over by another one.
Moral of the story is.. HTC build quality rocks and the Commuter is an awesome case! If it could do this for my phone, the Defender would pretty much render it indestructible.
PS I salvaged the 16gb microsd card from the Motorola and upgraded my 8gb one! Lmao.
got any pictures of the inspire?
ditto, wanna see how the phone itself fared.

Damage Report:
As you can see, the scratched areas are the corners and the lens (only the rim, not the glass!).. which are the only areas the Commuter's hard shell doesn't fully cover.
It seems as if the phone had shed the silicone skin before the corner damage occurred, as the skin seems to be unharmed.. that might have prevented some or most of them.
Not bad! Thanks for sharing because I have been considering that case.
Glad to have gotten the same case and I really do like the case personally the first time I put it on. Thanks for sharing your story mate.

Just got my phone this past Friday and I'm looking into getting accessories for it. Thank you for this post as it helped me decide which case to get now.
It'll be nice if Otter actually have some in stock for people that are looking to buy it.
I think they get new stock every few days. I tried to order a new one the night of the incident with no luck. The next afternoon, they were back in stock and I got my order in.
Sent from a telegraph station somewhere in northern Russia.
Sorry to hear about your accident Pheno.menon but look at the brightside, you have your phone intact with little to no damage.
Wow, good to see the case I bought a week prior to buying my Inspire does its job.
Bite the bullet and buy the Otterbox Commuter everyone, looking at mine now and am more than satisfied by the protection as well & the styling it gives the already beautiful phone.
I'm always in an attempt to keep it that way.
Specs of the case:
I know this is not the streak thread but hey i read them all! I must say the commuter is for real i dropped my streak from over six feet it bounced a couple times then slid on the concrete all i could think was well there went that phone i was sick because some peoples have been broken from way less. Anyway to get to the point no damage at all otterbox commuter a+++++++++++ a must have.

This thing turns a thin sexi phone into a BEAST. I guess it's all about how you treat your phone... if you're one to drop the phone, yeah, you need this, and it's worth having it turned into a thick beast of a phone for the protection, but if you're careful and not 12 years old, a standard case or no case is just fine.
It never ceases to amaze me that people buy slim\sleek phones, then put a big ol case on it... total waste. If it breaks it breaks. If you're that prone to destroying phones, get insurance. Not worth ruining the aesthetics of the phone.
I'm also baffled as to what would cause a car to run over a phone. I guess the same pool of people as end up on Judge Judy and Jerry Springer.
I think this thread just helped me make my decision on cases!

Mercury is a Korean brand, and it is "产地:韩国,MADE IN KOREA". Of course, this being taobao, it could also end up being an imitation.

I know right! I'm using a similar case for my tablet, and I take it out whenever I'm at home. For the Nexus 4 though, that could be a very dangerous thing to do... Then again, with the current case I'm using, the bulk makes it difficult to have a one-hand operation anyway.
Ordered this case on Monday from ebay, just waiting for it to arrive from Korea to Singapore. Ordered Lime green/Navy blue and Mint/Navy blue. Will post again once I receive it.
This case is pretty good. The tpu inside is a tight fit and the speaker, cut outs are ample and precise. The colours are pretty funky too. This is the mint/navy blue version. Just received it today

Liking it so far. I think it's worth getting as it can protect the front screen although the power buttons are little tough to reach but it's possible to get used to. Using proximity screen off so that's not really an issue for me
Realize this thread is a little old but I just received mine today and am pleasantly surprised. I have tried a couple of flip cases for my Nexus 4 (Poetic, PDair) and have been disappointed. This one is nicely made, feels good, and has a nice magnetic clasp. I especially like the fact that, if you choose to put credit cards in it, the edges of the embedded TPU case prevent the cover from coming in contact with the screen.
It only failed one requirement I had for such a case... and that is easy removal. Since the back of the TPU case is covered with the hard wallet material, it makes it a bit tougher to get the Nexus out. But considering I have yet to be pleased with any of the other flip cases this is now no longer one of my requirements. A steal for under 10 bucks!

I'm located near Shenzhen China and have been to the stores, which are actually entire buildings, where they manufacture and sell these cases.
These cases are essentially replicas, but they definitely do a good job of copying the real mercury cases, down to the very minute details. Some stores have better replicas than others, for example these Fancy Diary cases may have the threading skipped on the edges, fraying, or discoloration. Here at ground zero, you can pick these cases up in bulk for $15 - $20 RMB which is slightly over $2 USD on average.
Not saying these cases aren't worth it, but just thought it would be interesting to let you know where these cases came from. Being that the price was so cheap, I definitely picked up a few cases myself for friends and family without even thinking twice.
Not being able to decide, which from the two should I pick. Any suggestion?

Nice review. To condense it:

:laugh:
Early impressions were that people didn't like the snap method of affixing the case but I didn't have any issue with it and I like it.
My major criticism is with the edges of the case which have a raw, unfinished feel to them. If the cases were leather I would expect those edges to soften up with time but with this poly material, I don't know.
A major plus is that the cover doesn't add much bulk.
I had a difficult time finding a cover in my city. The one (the only one) a local Best Buy was carrying wasn't even in the Samsung section. The Samsung employees couldn't find it. I found it -- It was laying flat on a generic shelf labeled "tablet essentials".
Go figure.
I'm waiting on mine from Samsung. com. Is it heavy? Thanks.

Not sure what you're asking about magnets. The magnets are strong and once you get used to the folding schemes it easy to switch.
As far as long term wear my only concern is with the snaps. Only time will tell. This is by far the nicest case Samsung has ever made. I have their case for the note 8 and the note 2, never used either one for long. I don't think I'll even look at other cases for this, unless I want one with keyboard.

No. When folding the cover back you simply fold the flap underneath leaving the camera exposed and it doesn't flop around. Love it.

Hello .
Thank You for contacting Seidioonline.
Unfortunately, we do not have any plans for a Moto x holster .
This doesn't mean that we will not eventually release it for this phone we just haven't got plans to at this time.

No. I have 2 on my hip at all times. Like Quick Draw .
I've been using Seidio Surface with the clip for majority of all my phones. Case is thin enough and offers protection. I also have things in my pockets...wallet and loose change in one and keys in the other. And I can't hold the phone all the time because I'm either working or carrying my 8 month old and need access to my phone.
Even though Seidio claims they have no plans (which I'm sure is their generic response for unreleased products), I'm sure they're already working on it or already done with it. No way they would not make a case for what would be one of the hottest phones for 2015. They're a business in it to make money and they would be stupid not to support the phone.
I just wish they would have cases prior to release and not a few months after the release.

I've used Surface before, I want naked . I used Surface with my HTC One M7 and after taking it off and going with a skin, I'm not going back to Surface or any other case .
I hope Seidio does make holsters and such. But for now, they claim not. So they will be late to the party and lose money for it. Maybe they can't get an early model to work from or something.

This holds my Nexus 6 and will soon hold my X. It holds securely and is damn near indestructible. I've been in fights and had half my gear torn off and this thing stayed on solid and held on to my phone great.

I still use a holster for my phone. Carried my phone on my hip for years, and especially considering the size of this phone (which is already preordered) there's no way I'm pocketing it.
I'm used to carrying stuff on my hip. Firearm, extra mag, phone holster, etc. Doesn't bother me a bit. I like the piece of mind knowing that my phone is safe and won't get crushed when I sit down or scratched to hell in the same pocket as my keys or 5.11 tac knife. Just saying.
Imagine reaching for your gun and you end up picking up the phone ... nevermind just do some wrist action and boom you can blind the theif! Haha

Yeah i use a holster for my phone and zero F's given.
I was actually coming here to see what others are using. I have one for my one plus one I'm using now I'll probably keep it for now and see what comes out after the device actually hits consumer hands.

Trust me, sir, there's no mixing up what's what on my hip.
I doubt Seidio will make a holster for the Moto X Pure/Style considering Seidio didn't make one for the Moto X 2013.
I've had Seidio holsters for all of the dozen or so mobile phones I've owned since way back to the pre-iPhone-era Moto Q.
For my Moto X 2013, I use a Seidio holster designed for the Galaxy S5. It doesn't fit *perfectly*, but it's close enough. I actually have two Seidio Galaxy S5 clips, one for the naked Moto X 2013 and a second, "Surface" holster that works great when I have the Moto X 2013 in a TPU case.
Perhaps there's another phone that's close enough in size to the Moto X Style/Pure that a Seidio holster for that other phone would work with the Pure?
I just did a quick search on GSMArena for like-sized phones, and the closest match I could find — with accessories currently available from Seidio — is the Samsung Galaxy Note 4. The height differs by a mere 0.4 mm (Pure is taller), and the width by 2.4 mm (Note 4 is wider). Thickness, I'm not so worried about, since the Moto X is thin at the edges, where it counts.
I'm going to be the guinea pig and order a Seidio Note 4 holster to try out with the Moto X Pure.
Awesome let us know if you like it.
I got the sideways case and its just ok. I don't like the bi fold piece in the middle which I could cut out nor do I like the Velcro flip top which was my bad for not noticing. Its not a bad case, I just prefer magnet tops as Velcro gets annoying. I'm going to keep it as a backup. My current pleather one is starting to tear where the metal belt clip attaches to the case.
Im sure seidio will make a spring holster. the made one for my Droid Turbo, and i know this will be more popular than the Turbo. cant do without a surface holster as I'm a painting Contractor
Pretty frustrated at the choices available. I had one of these on my Note 3 and would love to get it for this phone, but cannot find one anywhere..

I emailed Puregear who make this to see if they plan on making one for the Pure. Will let ya know and hopefully it's a yes!
I just wanted to mention, that ProClip's "Medium Universal Adjustable Holder for devices without a Case". Fits the MXPE perfectly at its maximum size setting.
Feel free to share about other car holders.
Thanks for sharing that. I know ProClip is working on a MXPE holder, but from what I've heard, it probably won't be ready for a couple of months. Good to know that will work, as well.
I got an adjustable ProClip holder all the way back when I picked up my iPhone 3g brand new (2008). Well I've been using the same adjustable one for the iPhone 3g, 3gs, 4, 4s, Lumia 920, LG G3 and now my MXPE and it fits with a case on it at the maximum width. So I'm pretty happy to have the same holder (just changed the mount for a new car) since 2008 . Money well spent back then.
I bought a Kenu Airframe +. I had the old version for my Nexus 5 and really liked it.

I like that CD slot holder. I can't use any a/c vent option here in the hot, humid south. I used to have one with my Nexus 5, but every time I'd take it off the mount in the summer, the whole phone would condensate and I'd have to worry about water damage.

Does this trigger any docking mode for the pure?
Oh I never thought of something like that. I will investigate that idea further.

I can definitely vouch for this one. I have been using it since August of last year. It's held an LG G3, Nexus 6, Galaxy S6, Nexus 6 and now a MPXE. It is phenomenal.

It looks like it only grabs the phones sides and doesn't support the bottom... has this been an issue for you or anyone else at all? I haven't used a car mount in a super long time, so I'm just not sure what's normal anymore!

Yea now that I think of it does this not mess with the buttons on the side of the phone!? I would imagine that they would get pressed by how tight you would need to make this for it to be secure while in portrait mode.

This has not been an issue for me. It only grips the sides but holds it firmly.

No it doesn't, you can place it so that the volume buttons are just above the side clamp and it still holds it well.
Looks like they made a smaller one: http://www.amazon.com/Koomus-Pro-CD...1445625119&sr=8-1&keywords=Koomus+Pro+CD+Slot
I was gonna go with the Nite Ize Steelie, but instead I went with this magnet holder..which seems to be a slightly smarter concept:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00Q8XGLA6?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
Seems gimmicky but people seem to like it in the reviews and I was impressed with my buddy's steelie (lol), so I will let you know how this holder works out.
Get's here tomorrow (thank you free Amazon prime deals)

The problem is attaching the magnet to the back of your phone. The Pure is round and textured. The adhesive magnets don't stay on the back of the phone unless it's attached to your case.

I put on the back of a matt black TPU case, which I reserve for my car use. It works very well. Best holder I've ever used. I will take some pictures later.
The RAM-mount FingerGrip holder has served me well. Fits just right at the max adjustment with a bumper case on. I have a suction cup mount for the car and a U-bolt mount for the dirtbike. It's extremely secure.
