A hip holster that doesn't look like a cheap leather EBAY item

I am looking for a holster with a belt clip that doesn't look like a cheap EBAY rip off you get for $3. It doesn't need to be leather. I just want a nice one that will fit the G2x good.

PDAir (pdair.com) makes a great one, I've used them for all my phones. They're not cheap but they're very high quality. I have one coming and will post pics.

I've owned 2 of these, 1 for my N1, and one for my Vibrant. These are good cases and are very well made. I highly recommend.

I have two same cases for old Blackjack II from PDair. They were expensive, however they have held up well. The interior portion of the spinning clip came free from its attachment, so when it sits, it can bend at an angle, and isn't stiff. The rest of the clip and the outer part still attaches, its just isn't stiff and if I were to get it again for the G2x, I would get one with a permanent belt clip and not the spinny thing. The rest of the leather is OK and has held its shape- not too nice of a grain.

i have a pdair leather case for my old motorola xt720. It's of good quality but I don't really like the tightness of the case, but I do understand that most people would prefer having a tighter case. My concern is that they are probably selling this universal case for all phone models so it might be a bit too tight for the g2x (since my xt720 is smaller than the g2x and I was already complaining about its tightness)
quality-wise, it definitely live up to its price

I am still looking for a hip-holster leather case for this phone. I don't want to buy pdair's horizontal pouch leather case because I know it will be too tight... any more suggestions?

Leather Case Options and Suggestions

Ok, I've been looking for a leather case for a while now. I think I've searched all the web but have found nothing to what I am exactly looking for. I hate the flip cases and find them annoying (this isn't '99) and HATE TPU cases because of their extremely cheap feel.
I did find a gorgeous leather case that I am extremely interested in made by Zenus. Unfortunately, they make cases for all the wrong phones like the iPhone 4 and SGSII so far. The particular case I'm interested is in this http://www.zenuscaseusa.com/ZENUS-Galaxy-Leather-Stand-Masstige/dp/B005ELMLTS?ie=UTF8&id=ZENUS%20Galaxy%20Leather%20Stand%20Masstige&field_product_site_launch_date_utc=-1y&field_availability=-1&field_browse=3207153011&searchSize=12&searchNodeID=3207153011&searchPage=1&refinementHistory=brandtextbin%2Csubjectbin%2Ccolor_map%2Cprice%2Csize_name%2Cmaterial_type%2Cspecial_features&searchRank=salesrank and just blew my socks off.
I emailed them if they would have any for the Sensation but no luck. Do any of you know of anything equivalent to this somewhere on the world?? Meanwhile, I'm looking at this case to get me by and the leather just saves it. http://www.amzer.com/Amzer-Go-Case-P91667.htm It looks like it fits like a glove. But I guess I'm not the only one who found out and its on Pre-order and sold out atm on Amazon...
My search continues..

So any suggestions? Anyone know what I'm talking about? Seen anything out there?

no case for me

This Zenus case is indeed beautiful...

Cases with good lip around the front

Hi I've been a lurker for a while pyt this is my first post and I was wondering if anyone had good recommendations for cases with a frontlip for the one x. I switch from the iPhone 3gs and was using the incase slider that a had a really nice design and saved my phone many times. I was the wondering if anyone knows of a similar case that won't scratch my phone like the incase did.

Loving my Case-mate "Smooth" purchased from expansys. Semi-rigid with a great hand feel. Recommended. No cutout for the contacts on the back though.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA Premium HD. In between FCs.

I did see that case I how big is the lip on the front. And does it feel cheap at all or does it collect a lot of lint because those are my only problems with some gel and tpu cases.

Feels very well made, fits tightly. You might have a tiny struggle getting it on at first, but you'll manage. The lip over the sides comes just far up enough to cover the seams on the glass. And because of its rigidity, it doesn't buckle to reveal the seams. I'm very satisfied with it.
One flaw I found - and it's been on both units I purchased - was a little unfinished cutting on the bottom edge of the camera lens cutout. Probably something in manufacturing where they cut it from the mold or whatever. It bothered me enough to get a return authorization, but it dawned on me (again) that life's too short to give a crap about ridiculous things like this so I never returned it. In fact, I bought the second unit for a buddy of mine instead.

I bought the Incipio Feather and NGP. The feather is going back the NGP is staying. This is a somewhat overpriced but well made and well fitting TPU case (semi-soft). Feels much more secure in my hand and less likely to slip than the Feather, though admittedly not as sleek. the Speck cases on the iPhone seem to offer good protection, but the only ones I saw in the AT&T store were ugly red and bright blue, I am not a teenager, no way I am putting one of these on my phone.

The official purple TPU case is pretty good for that but I'm not sure if I'm a huge fan of its appearance.

Cimo TPU case from Amazon is pretty good. Nice lip and good grip on the edges. Plus it was only $8 when I bought mine

Bumper cases

Does anyone know of some good bumper cases? Your responses are greatly appreciated.

Also looking for a great bumper case that doesn't add much bulk. Don't need it to protect the phone from any drops, just want to place it on a surface without having to worry about anything.
The Photive one looks alright, but some of the reviews said it added lots of bulk to it. The others on Amazon that I see all have reviews saying they fall apart though, so I don't know what to do on this one...

Check out Marware Bumper Case on Amazon. I have one and I love it!

That case looks awesome, but in the end I wanted a true bumper, one without the back cover. I ended up finding (and purchasing) one from Cruzerlite. Somehow I forgot to look there even though I've ended up using one of their cases for every previous Android phone I've owned.
Here's the link for anyone interested. I'm actually gonna try sanding off the logo that's sticking out if I can, as I like things to be as clean as possible.

Just bought this case and I'm very happy with the quality of it. Its not too bulky for me. It even came with a screen protector that went on nicely. I bought the Metallic Navy one with my black S5.

Looks like a direct rip off of the UAG model cases. Honestly that isn't a bad thing because UAG makes one hell of a case. Though I would be interested in feeling this next to a UAG in order to compare quality.

Here are a few pics

I don't believe this is a direct rip off of UAG because this case by OBLIQ is a 2 piece case and though similar is appearance to UAG it is different.

I agree with both of you. UAG has some nice looking cases. Never owned one though. Always thought they were pricey. I bought this one thinking it was like UAG. Turns out it was different. But i'm liking the difference.

Anybody mind explaining how a two piece work? Is there a reason why you'll remove that part of the case?

Right it has two pieces but it looks like a uag case..... No denying that.. Regardless glad that this case is working well for you.
