It's way way too big. It should be just slightly bigger than the device, to allow easy access and tow away but not making it any bulkier.
Don't like the opening. Too difficult and clumpsy to open this. Should be a flip cover fastened by Velcro.
Keep looking.

This is slimmer than most other clip on holsters ... but the photographer of this ad image is stupid. Why? Well dude the Touch Pro is facing the wrong way on the clip. Seriously, how hard is it to know which way is the front and the back?

Umm, I think that is the correct way to holster the phone. It's holstered that way so that the screen will be protected from scratches and impact since it will be facing your body.

It's not a case, it's a holster, unless you're talking about a case with a holster clip. But this is a holster dude.
From what I see, the purpose of a holster is to be able to clip in on your belt so that you have fast access to the phone.

Exactly. If you wear a holster on your belt, chances are good that while walking around, getting in and out of your chair, getting into a car, etc., the holster and phone will bump into things. That's why you wouldn't want the screen facing out. Also, when you unholser it, if the phone is facing your body (as shown in the pic), it will be facing your face. Think about it. That picture is correct.

Holsters are an item of convenience and quick access. Cases are what are used to protect the screen and other parts.
BTW, with Seido and your configuration of the holster, you won't get enough convenience out of that. As of matter of fact, you're going to have to unclip the holster from the phone every time you want to use it or look at notifications.
Here are some various pictures

I believe it is more important to enhance your performance than to protect your phone. In fact I think by having a convenient device you are more likely to be happy and to be productive. Productivity = more likely to get a job promotion for example. Job promotion = better money. Better money = upgrades.
Seriously those who buy chunky cases and covers are wasting their time and money and especially their comfort. Why buy shell/cases for your phone's exterior when it makes the device uncomfortable? After all we bought a luxury device. Just try to take care of your phone like a car. I mean seriously, you don't buy armor (analogous to cases for phones) for your car right?

You're free to holster the phone screen out. If that's your preference, go ahead. Most holsters are leather pouch types so the screen is protected whichever way it's facing. But with this holster, you will damage the screen more likely than not if you use your configuration. In any event, even assuming everything you said is true, it would come down to a matter of personal preference. You ridiculed the photographer, but there is a reason for holstering the phone that way as I have already explained. Yes, holsters are partly for convenience. But that doesn't mean everyone would be willing to sacrifice all protection like you. Besides, the primary convenience factor, which is being able to easily access and take out your phone (without having to dig in your pockets) still exists with the photographer's configuration.
Besides, in at least one of your links, the phone (Blackberry) is holstered with the screen facing in to PROTECT THE SCREEN.

Returning to the holster in question (the one posted by the original poster), have you bothered to read the product description? Here it is:
Seidio's Spring Clip Holster has been refined from years of customer feedback and advances in technology. A durable spring clip holds your device securely in place, and then lifts for quick access. Both the felt liner and the face-in design protect your screen from scratches and exposure to outside elements, and Seidio's signature soft touch coating provides a better feel and added grip. This holster can be worn in any one of seven different positions, ranging between horizontal and vertical.
- Spring clip lifts for easy access and removal
- Felt liner and face-in design protect the screen
- Rotating swivel belt clip with choice of seven angles
LOL you guys are too funny...I have had seidio holster for all my phones and love it, it protect it enough (screen faced in), its light and not bulky and easy access to the phone.
I'm looking at getting an X1 but I won't if I can't get a good holster for it. So far I guess no one knows?
I hope someone knows of one and posts up. I'd grab one too. (Although it almost sounds like it's illegal for a holster to actually help protect too.)

Devicewear The Ridge Case

I was just surfing amazon and found a case available that i hadn't seen before. It's by Devicewear, called The Ridge. I can't link to it as it's my first post, though i thought i'd give everyone a heads up.
Seems like an awesome case, with everything that I was looking for:
Slim profile, hard backing, folio cover, auto sleep/start, microfiber lining, decent price, available.
I ordered it and should be arriving tomorrow, i'll try to take some pics and have a short review soon if people are interested. I already have the poetic hardback, which is nice, but this one seems to be the perfect case for me.
That looks pretty nice, looking forward to your review.
Just registered and first post. Free advertisement?
Looks like a sleek case. How much did you spend?

Looks very nice.
The thing I don't like are the two things on the front flap to keep closed.
Decent price.
I really like this - wish it came in more colors

Totally is a good marketing scheme. Made me realize that this case is in the market and I bought it because it looks like the best one for my needs available.
I looked up a review of their iPad case and they check out:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOsH-owEJv0
Quick Review and pics
Wow, I had no idea that me posting that would make it seem like I'm schilling for them. Not sure what I can say to have you guys believe otherwise, but oh well. I'm not affiliated with them in any sense.
Anyways, for those that would care, it came in today (yay Amazon next-day shipping!) and I took some ****ty cell-phone pics and have some initial impressions.
The Good:
Very slim profile, doesn't add much bulk at all.
While not real, the "vegan leather" does feel pretty good and grippy in the hand. Definitely better than the pu leather stuff.
The inner lining of the front cover has some sort of rubbery, felt-ish material that seems like it will protect pretty well against scratches n such.
All buttons, ports and speakers are well-exposed and have easy access.
I love the combo of hard case to protect the back and cover for the front.
Auto sleep/awake seems to work pretty well.
The Nexus does fit pretty snugly in the case, doesn't seem like it will pop out unless coaxed.
The little ridges in the front cover line up with a ridge on the inside edge of the case to prop it up at multiple angles. It seems really sturdy, and a lot less bulky than the giant deep ridges i have in my poetic hardback.
It also flips over for a pretty good typing angle.
The not so good:
The PU backing seems a little flimsy, I've never had one of these hard cases before so I'm not sure how sturdy they normally are, but it seems like it flexes kind of easily.
While the clamps on the top and bottom edges of the cover hold it in place pretty well, they are definitely pretty flimsy and don't "snap" like you would like them to. I can also see them getting in the way, it would have been nice if they would have found another way to keep the cover shut against the tablet, like a magnet or a clamp on the right side. At least it stays in place though.
Because the case is synthetic leather, it does have a chemical smell to it, which i'm sure will dissipate over time.
Overall, I'm pretty impressed with the case. I really wish the plastic was a bit sturdier, the poetic slimline from the pictures I have seen looks a little thicker. I really do like it, and I'm happy I made the purchase. If anybody wants more pics let me know and I'll do what I can.
Looks like the clips would get in the way if the front flap was folded all the way back like a book and then set on a flat surface. Correct?

They are noticable, but don't get in the way nearly as much as I would have thought. I have noticed, however, that with the back folded all the way back the magnet is strong enough to put the tablet back to sleep, so I have to put a finger in between to keep it on. Definitely annoying.
This is definitely one of the better looking cases for the N7. Its a little pricey though.

Looks like a great case except for this point, definitely a problem. I wonder if it's possible to take out the magnet somehow, I don't even care about the wake/sleep function much.

Is it possible to fold it in such a way that the clamps are facing up the back case (when folded back for reading), so that maybe they can snap onto the PU backing?
I guess it's a bit hard to explain but since the front cover extends all the way to the middle of the back case, is it possible to fold that part to an opposite direction (instead of folding the usual line along on the left edge of the case)
If this works, maybe it can avoid the problem you mentioned in another post, about the magnet being too strong and put the device to sleep when the front is folded back.

I don't think there's any way you can get the clips to face that direction, but I have found that if you keep the cover folded along the natural crease, forming a little triangle, I've been able to avoid the problem as well as giving you a nice little grip to hold onto. Thus far I am really enjoying the case. Although now part of me wants one of the Portenzo or Treegloo cases, they look really nice.

[Q] How can I give my case a magnetic latch?

I've been considering purchasing some kind of magnetic paint to get a magnetic latch feeling (like that of my laptop or one of Apple's smart covers) on my Speck FitFolio case. Would this achieve the effect I'm looking for, and if so, what would I want to buy to do this effectively? I haven't seen anything in the forums about doing this, so any other ideas would be great. Thanks!
Do you mean a magnet to keep it closed or as a sleep/wake switch?

Ah, good question. I should've specified. I was talking about keeping it relatively loosely closed; my case already has a magnet for sleep/wake.
In your first post you say you have a Speck FitFolio, looking at images of those they have a catch closure already, were you intending taking that off? I don't see the benefit of having a magnet and the catch.

The latch works just fine, but it's an extra step to closing the case, and the feel of a magnetic latch is a bit more satisfying in my opinion. My plan is to leave the original latch on, since it's needed for the typing orientation for the case.
You can buy thin bar magnets, maybe thin enough to be able to insert one into the elastic alongside the buckle and then stick another to the lid?
It might be easier just to buy a different case though, one of mine has a magnetic closure (search this forum for luckyexpress168). Mine has no sleep/wake magnet but others of the same type do now I believe.

New Kickstand Case

I am always looking for the perfect kickstand case. To me the perfect case is one that steadily stands the phone in landscape as well as portrait position. It is also important it fits in my front shirt pocket and is fairly easy to get it in and out of the pocket. I have tried several, but the one listed below is my new favorite. It is the thinnest I have tried and is one piece made of hard plastic and goes on easily and is a very good fit with all cutouts properly aligned. It has a nice patterned grip feature on one side so if you hold your phone with your left hand, your fingers will grip these. The kickstand is the best I have used. It is the wide kickstand measuring about 1.25" at its base for a very sturdy platform in portrait mode. The only cons so far are minor, the on/off button and volume rocker are covered and a little hard to press. Also the space between the stand and its brace is small and my finger does not fit in, so it is not as easy to use as a holder as the others I have used. As you can see the price is very reasonable and it also comes with a generic screen protector, a cloth and a generic touchscreen stylus pen. So far it is my favorite.

This has been my favorite kickstand case.

oooh, i've never seen this yoobao case before.. noted.. pun intended.
That Yoobao case looks pretty good but when I first saw it, I was worried that the rotating thing would scrape against the phone's back panel. Does it?
I just got it in today. It doesn't touch the back of the phone. There's about a good millimeter or two between the phone and the rotating thing.

Does the kickstand on the Yoobao case also allow it to stand in portrait?
yep. that's actually why I bought it since it doubles up as portrait/landscape stand. the one problem is that it's a little wobbly. You have to adjust it a littlest bit. they could've remedied this by making it a bit wider.
do you think yoobao case rotating kick-stand disk will wear off after awhile? I mean constant rotation with whatever locking mechanism they use to keep it steady will wear off since it's all plastic stuff. But at the same time it can make for a neat fly-grip attachment Can you stick your finger under/inside?
If you have some time in your hands go to best buy and try this case. You wont regret it.

That's actually an re-branded SEIDIO Surface case.
http://www.seidioonline.com/samsung...e-metal-ks-combo-black-p/bd2-hr3ssgt2k-bk.htm
I have the Best Buy "Platinum Series" one here myself. It is a good case overall.
Pros: Very solid feel in your hands. Has a nice soft felt like material on the inside to offer extra protection. The kickstand works pretty well and offers a good angle for the Note 2 when in use. Very durable protection. Easy to install as its a two piece set for the case that clicks in place. The holster piece that comes with it is pretty durable as well and the belt clip is pretty nice as well.
Cons: Hard and I mean HARD to take the dang thing off. This could be a big deal killer for those who need to say swap out their battery/sd card/sim card or whatever often.
Certainly a good case but not without that one con that really be a deal killer for some.

I have this case too and I found that if you take a knife not sharp, more like the butter knife and insert it just off-center in the back "cut" where it snaps the 2 pieces in place, then "twist" the knife (very little twist), you hear a "snap" and now the 2 pieces will come off very easy. I was strugling with it too, but now it's a "snap" to take it off...lol...
there's a youtube video for the seido surface that explains a much easier way to take it off...so i assume it would work for this case as well.

It's a great case. But, as you mentioned, I wouldn't recommend one for people who chance their battery regularly. I stopped using mine when I started to see scratches on the edge of the sides of my phone. The case staves the phone when sliding it on and off.

I have tried both of those and I like the one I started this thread about much better. The kickstand is sturdier, it is much thinner, easier to get on and off and in my opinion nicer looking.
Cruzerlite makes a case with a kickstand built into the back of the case and its pretty sturdy with multiple colors. Check out Amazon, only about $25.

Moko 10-11" Case / Wallet

Moko 10-11" Wallet
Fits perfectly with reasonable finish. Also plenty of options for retrofitting a stylus loop or some other holder
Would fully recommend it as a carry case option.
I got myself a Felt Sleeve which is just perfect in size and texture.
It fits to carry everything with me. As a fast typer I can't live without a real Keyboard, this one is millimetric exactly the same size as the Holo-Surface
Yep had a look at a couple of felt ones but, as I'm a mucky pup, I went for something a little more robust and easier to keep clean.

Well, I have that case 1 of 10 tries. But totally ok for me as I am not using the halo keyboard at the same time anyways... Typing is so much more comfortable on this keyboard than on the halo... Even the touchpad is quite more responsive. The only thing I totally hate on the Yoga Book is how often I accidentally press the Spacebar, the gap between the halo touchpad and the spacebar is just to small. Solved with this keyboard.

Instead, what I would suggest (and I have posted that on a different blog) that you looked up on eBay for the "Soft Case Cover Sleeve Bag Pouch For New LENOVO YOGA Book 10.1"inch 2 in 1" which is extremely soft and has a zipper. You can use it as a carrying case AND place your Yoga Book on top and not worry about what's the surface like underneath.
ALSO, go for a "Flexible Bluetooth Keyboard" from eBay, which would not scratch the surface of the Halo keyboard and you can fold it in any way possible... and this makes it very easy to carry around.
That's totally POV...

It closes and envelopes the YogaBook perfectly. Zero risk to fall out.

No scratches at all. As I wrote before: I am a fast typer, nothing beats a real Keyboard. I would type as fast on the Halo-Keyboard than on those flexible rubber Keyboards.
