Getting my TP2 tomorrow, but really wondering about this...
Seeing pictures of the leather 'case' that comes with the TP2 elsewhere than in the US, is it the same case without belt clip in the T-Mo US TP2?
If it is, I want to be ready when I pick up my phone to get a belt clip equipped case as well.
Yeah man... the US tp2 comes with a gay looking leather case that has no belt clip. It looks like you have a man purse imo
yeah a man purse that slides into your pocket
You guys weren't lying -- that thing is pathetic. I don't know what the heck HTC was thinking when they packaged that.
The T-Mobile guy was also full of crap when he said they had one with a belt clip. Looks like I'll be doing some shopping online.
Thanks for the heads up on that one!
yes the cases htc give are always junk. i like the bodyguardz skin cases simply because the phone is already kinda thick and it does protect the phone. kinda of a pain to put on but after my 4th attempt throughout the years i think i did my best on the touch pro 2.
nko, does the screen protector part feel rubbery and make the touch screen a little less sensitive? I know it is like that with the Zagg on my friend's iPhone.
Got this hard thick rubberized case at the tmo store. It comes with a snap in/out belt clip if wanted. Seems to fit tp2 very well, and leaves accessible all need openings.
I just used the belt clip that came with my Wing. Fits like a glove!
Hand me downs FTW!
i am still using the case my dash came with for my tp2, it fits.
I just bought me a $5 case with belt clip. I just have to cut a hole for the ear jack. I'm not spending $10+ for a case

Yeah, I think I'm just gonna use the belt clip case that came with my Hermes. It's just a little longer but it fits for now.
Has anyone installed a full body screen protector like the bodyguardz ones? I saw this one on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=370244520409&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
But I bought this for the time being: http://cgi.ebay.com/for-HTC-TOUCH-P...ries?hash=item4399b91c94&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 (from what I've heard, these pop off easily)
This is a very delicate process for me. It's a balance between too bulky and too little protection. I want it to be able to survive it's first dreaded drop without cracking the case. I may just try to use both of them at the same time. When I'm doing physical work, I'll put the rubber case on, and when I'm at the desk, just have it out with the clear protector. I just wonder if you can clip on the rubber housing over the clear protector. The perfect thing for me would be to just have a rubber skin that slides over the whole body of the phone because I don't slide the keyboard out much anyway. That way it could be protected when I'm on the move and I can easily take it off when not.
I also bought one of those generic belt clip holders for $5: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310161485996&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT I had one before and their alright. The loops on the back will secure the phone to you if you're moving around but the clip may sag overtime though. I know I'll be replacing it eventually. The HTC OEM cases are much better, but no loops. There's never a perfect solution.
BTW: Does anyone know if the rubber case from the Touch HD will fit?
^^Just ordered one of those this afternoon. Looks similar to one I had before but can't beat $5 and then about $.50 in cashback haha
anyone find a good leather holster pouch for the photon yet? im using a evo oem pouch for it, it does the job but its a bit tight.
got it from here for 8 bux http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-Leather...963975?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item5d2bfd11c7
I just got this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0054YV7O0
Wanted one with a spring clip. Its nice, but its fairly large, the photon moves but doesn't rattle around. Magnet isn't as strong as im used to but that will prob pass, it is well secure though.
This is what I use:
http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/accessory?action=accessoryDetails&archetypeId=12621&accessoryId=47558
It fits nice as long as you don't mind the Verizon writing on it. I had it for my t-bolt before I switched over from Verizon.
Looking for a quality leather belt clip/holster for my 4G LTE and not finding much.
This is what I had for my Evo and 3vo
http://shop.htcpedia.com/htc-messenger-side-case-with-belt-clip.html
Looking for the same thing for my Evo LTE.
Found this:
http://www.amazon.com/Horizontal-Le...7I/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&qid=1338874338&sr=8-15
and not much else.
Do any of you know of something similar that isn't a cheap $12 POS?
I also found this and it's right up my alley.
http://www.spigen.com/htc-evo-4g-lte-crumena-leather-pouch-series.html
but no belt clip.
I got something like that from walmart. It's in their electronics/cell phone accessory section. It's textile, not leather, but has a similar clip on the back. Uses velcro not magnets to hold the front closed (somewhere I read that magnets can be damaging to the digitizers????). For $10, I can't complain. Phone still fits even with the tpu cover on.
If you got no cover, verizon has a nice leather case that fits also, and is leather. $20
Thanks for the reply - I'm looking for something a bit nicer than textiles. I'd really prefer leather.
Any idea what phone the verizon case is for?
I too have been looking for a good leather belt case, but have found none.
Have you found one yet?

Still looking. I have a local contact who works exclusively in leather. I've asked him to see how much it would be to make a case like the HTC one I already have, with the higher quality of the Spigen one.
I'm still looking. Anyone find one that fits yet?
I apparently used the wrong search terms and didn't see this thread until just now after posting this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1697882
They day I got my phone in the mail I went to best buy since I knew sprint didn't have a leather case yet. Found this, it's by rocketfish. Best holster I ever had, and I only use holster's with all my phones. I don't like hard cases. The magnets are strong, it feels great, soft inside, the clip is very strong so it won't come off your belt, and the best part is there is a hole in the bottom you can use a finger to push the phone out with so you can get it out of the holster easier. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Rocketf...Id=5070815&st=rocketfish phone case&cp=1&lp=3
I got the one for the evo 3d for my LTE and it fits little snug but it works only thing I could find. I might need to get the last one a bit expensive but it is what I wanted just like my old blackberry pearl case.

I also bought this case. I highly recommend it if you want a horizontal holster
Edit: I decided that I wasn't gonna run this phone naked, so I exchanged the holster for the Platinum Series case and holster. Forgot to check and see if the Platinum case fit in the leather holster. If someone doesn't try it before Sunday, I will, and post results. I really liked the leather holster
Sent From My Righteous EVO 4G LTE
That appears to be one of the better leather cases I've seen to date.
I'll check it out tomorrow at my local Best Buy.
Thank you for the link.
Noreve
Hello Everyone,
Hopefully Noreve will come out with one soon. They have one for the One X
Monnie
Definitely headed to Best Buy tomorrow. That's just what I was looking for and not finding. Looks about like the old HTC leather case I had and still used with my 3D.
I'm pretty sure that I'm going to get a custom leather case from easecase. They've been around on ebay for a long time and I've seen reviews going back to the fuze praising their cases.
Did you ever get your easecase case? How is it?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
I'll be looking into easecase as well. They made a nice one for my OG EVO to my specs (I wanted it to fit a cased device).
Not cheap, but they do good stuff.
SPE Leather Cases are the best. Period.
I've been using them since the OG Evo.
I'm waiting for them to release the case for the EVO LTE.

I also ordered myself a crocodile case from PDair.
It just came in, and works great.

I'll upload some pictures later.
I know this is a old thread but might as well ressurect it .
I bought this belt case

Hopefully it fits my EVO 4G LTE and my SGS3. Its only $5 after shipping.
Hi all!
Has anyone come across a nice holster case without a kickstand? I'm not really concerned with price.. Willing to pay for a good case. I see that seidio makes a spring clip holster for the naked device but id like to have it in a case. I'd like it as thin as possible (no otterbox for me!). I have found a few holster cases but they all have a stupid bulky kickstand!
Thanks
Check out my thread on a nice case with holster.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2825451
The holster is great. Of course, the main point is the case. For 39.99 idk of it's worth just buying for the holster alone...

I got this holster combo basically got the holster itself. I had one for my og evo and s3 and never once broke on me. To me it is worth the $40, I just get a case I like that fits in the holster.

I'm looking for suggestions for a thin case for my Pixel that will fit in a belt holster. I'm currently using this one:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MG4BBX1/
but the case is pretty thick, around 3.5mm. All of the ones in that style have a kickstand on the back, which adds to the thickness.
I see Seidio makes a Surface which they say is 2mm thick, quite a bit thinner. I've never had one, and am not sure about the TPU inner part covering the buttons, wondering if it messes up the feel.
https://www.seidioonline.com/product/google-pixel-surface-case/
Any comments on the Surface for this (or other) phones, or suggestions for a thin case/belt holster set?
I use a Google Live Case with a vertical leather belt pouch like this one. Works well for me.
I thought about the Seidio Surface, but don't like kickstands.
I can recommend the Supcase that comes with a belt clip but it's not the thinnest thing in the world - definitely a thicker heavy duty case. No kickstand though.
On that note, I'd be happy to mail you the belt clip if you wanted it if you paid for shipping, as well as test my various cases first to see if any are compatible with it. Just let me know. (My wife uses the case but not the belt clip.)

Thanks for the suggestion, but I had bad luck with phones sliding out of that type of case (running with the dog or working under a car).

Thanks, but I have a belt clip for it without a case (think it's encased brand, ironically).
I decided to order a Surface and give it a try. Showed up today. The TPU part is a lot thinner than I was expecting. I'll post some thoughts on it after I've had it a few days.
I have the Surface case with holster and I like it. It's not too think, but still protective. I've dropped my phone a couple times and it didn't break

What's the verdict?
I had one like this (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MXDYKP7) on my Galaxy S6 and Moto Z, but would like a little protection on the Pixel.

That's the holster I was using when I didn't have it in a case. I liked it, but decided to stick with a case. Phone was a little too slippery for me without one.
I ended up returning the Seidio case/holster. For one thing, it was more difficult to get in and out of the holster, although it probably would have loosened up over time. Some of the headphones I have didn't fit the jack with it on, and the lip around the front made it more awkward to use. A lot of it came down to I just didn't think it was anywhere near being worth the price. For me anyhow. I see Amazon has a like new one right now for $21 though.
I'm still using the case/holster combo I linked to in the first post, and it's protected the phone from a few fumbles drops just fine.
