i just bought the cellet holster for tmob tp2 from ebay for $9.99 and it is perfect.
Cellet Rubberized Elite Holsters is the best. the elite holster is made of a hard plastic that has a rubberized texture coating for extra grip and durability. When you insert the phone you will hear it "click" into place. Phone is ultra secure within the holster. You can press the release tab on the top of the holster to remove your phone. The belt clip on this holster is awesome. Clip will turn/lock in different positions. The clip has a slim profile so it will not extend far from your waist and bump into things. You can access the charger port, volume, memory, etc. There is also a cutout for the camera on the back of the holster. This holster is designed to fit the phone face-out but it will also fit face-inward. Attach to your side and always have quick access to your phone.
i did buy a week before this one, the bodyglove case and was very disappointed. the case dug into the side of the phone, was begging to take up the protective stickers on the keyboard, and was very bulky, and when clip to my belt stuck to far out. two thumbs down for bodyglove,,,,,
two thumbs up for cellet holster!!!!

nice find.....i just ordered a different rubberized case for my Tmo TP2 but i may pick this one up as well. I agree with you about the bodyglove case. That thing has caused more harm to my phone than good (i.e. scratched keyboard and overall abrasive fit while it cradles the phone). given the pic above i'll def. have to check out the cellet holster.
one full day of playing around with it: IT STILL ROCKS. IT IS AS SOLID AS.... WELL A ROCK! LOL . great feel, and not bulky at all
yeah!thanks!!good work!

I think it's too exposed. (just a personal idea)

Oh yeah, I would never walk around with the screen exposed to the elements / harmful objects that could scratch, damage, or kill the screen.
you can flip the phone around to protect it some more the back of the case is cut out for the camera and speaker though, it has two small squares and a small rectangle
Not a discussion about cases or anything, just wondering how everyone carries their Note 3 since it's such a bigger phone. Coming from the S4 I find the added wight and size almost too big for my pockets. During the week I have to use a belt clip holster as I'm a field tech for copiers and find it too large for my slacks. Feels funny to have such a large phone on belt clip but I have no choice. The S4 fit nicely, with no case, in my slacks front pockets.

I have the Zerolemon 10k battery & case with holster and it fits in my front pocket with no issue. I will admit when sitting down it is a little uncomfortable but standing up is no issue. When sitting down I usually rotate the clip 90° and clip it to my pocket.

Great case, and I have it also, but how do you carry it on your body? Pant, holster, ect? I just didn;t care for the way you get it out of it's holster, a real PIA.
Levis 501 jeans. Back pocket. Fits perfectly even with a case.

Otter Box Defender, belt clip, on hip. Don't even know it's there.
Just opened the Otter Box on my retired Evo LTE to recycle the micro SD card...
No surprise, the device is absolutely mint!

Love that case also, nice and secure on the belt clip. But how do you get the case off the holster with one hand? Dose that top clip loosen up a bit after time? One reason I like the Seidio holsters. Currently using the Spigen bounce case and the Seidio holster for the Dilex case, which I also have also but the rubber is too soft.
Still working on the one hand release, get it about every 3rd time.

That's the one reason I didn't get one. .. Too many reviews with people dating that even with 2 hands, it can be challenging.

Honestly, I was an HTC fanatic and coming from the EVO 4G LTE to the Note 3 I must say wow!
The Note3 is big, but it feels secure unlike the EVO. The screen hasn't gotten Lil swirly marks like HTC's "gorilla glass". That's with using the Spen just begging to scratch the screen. I've had no trade embargo negative features from pending lawsuits. Also, no dead pixels or Google wallet breaking from factory resets. 3gb of RAM! This is multitasking with no custom tweaks enabled after months of tedious work.
Sorry about the rant. I wanted to see if this phone could hold up to a week or so of no case. I haven't dropped it yet, but despite being in pockets and etc. there are no screen scratches or blemishes of any kind. HTC pushes build quality yet this phone is so much better.
Anyways, I spent too much to get a case atm. Debating on otterbox but naked for now. Thanks for maybe reading my first post in a long while. U get thirsty out there in the desert looking for old jewels.
I use the Triton Kraken Case for mine. Was a HUGE Otterbox fan for a long time...well that's the past now. Best case ever!!

I've been thinking about getting the Kraken too. I particularly like that they have the window mount that just snaps onto the back and then onto the ball of the window mount. Perfect for in the car either running Nav, or streaming music..etc.
I ordered the i-Blason case from Amazon for my Note 3. It's silicone & a hard shell both at once. Soft silicone wrapped around the phone while the hard outer shell grips around the back like the facehugger from Aliens...from all sides.
It comes with a swivel clip belt holster that faces the screen so only the back is exposed to the world, but since the silicone is very soft & flexible, I don't use it because it's a pain to insert & remove in a hurry when the phone is ringing. I suppose it'd be all right if I had a bluetooth headset. But...no matter!
I carry it in my breast pocket in my jacket, currently. But when it gets warmer, I suppose I'll buy a bluetooth headset & put it in it's belt holster & clip that big 'ol monster to my waist.

Being I'm on the road all day, I use it everyday! The window mount is extremely well built too! Only thing that is annoying is you have to unclip the kickstand to use the window mount...but that's it. Otterbox drove me crazy with the rubber always stretching and deforming. They will replace it, but just drove me nuts. The Kraken, the rubber jacket is inside the case. Plus unlike the Otterbox, I really think I could drop my phone off a building and it would still be 100%. SOLID freaking case! It's worth every penny.
I use the Spigen Neo Hybrid case. It fits comfortably in my front suit jacket pocket.
Owned my N3 for a week and I only have it in my pocket which may change upon getting the zerolemon 10k mAh battery and I might use the clip with it. Probably not, but maybe lol. Fits perfectly into my pocket w/ no excess popping out.
I wear mine on a big gold chain ala FLAV O' FLAV!!! BOYYYEEE. Lol. Couldn't resist.

Haha I saw this thread and I was just thinking the same haha. you beat me to it.
Hi everyone. I just bought the OEM Samsung Wireless Back cover for my Note 3. And I was using Spigen Slim Armor case which I really like, so when the Wireless Back cover came, well I guess you know already Slim Armor doesn't fit when you have the OEM Wireless Back cover. So I got my Spigen case and separated the rubber case from the polycarbonate hard case, then I cut out the part that was under the bulge, it's basically almost the whole back which is under the plastic hard case. I'll attach pictures. The cut edges are a little rough due to not to sharp scissors. lol. But it definitely works and still look Oem.
Bloody aliens.

I have the same combo and may try this but my Slim Armor cracked by the volume up key just from taking it on and off. I'll wait until I've RMAd it.

Nice. Try to use a very sharp cutter. I might buy another to cut up. Lol
Why is it plugged in?
No it's not plugged in. The qi charging pad is plugged, it's smaller than the note 3, that's why it looks like the phone is the one that's plugged in. Lol
I am the kind of guy who likes minimal bulked added to my phone without sacrificing protection. Naturally I would choose TPU cases to achieve this goal and I have 3 types that I will be writing a short review on.
The first case and a longtime favorite is the Cruzerlite TPU case in clear. The fit is great, I wrote another OP about the case which you can find in this section as well. *To sum it up its tied for the thinnest of the 3 cases with the TUDIA, they have great customer service and make great cases. My initial case had a slight fit issue with the camera (only 1 of my 3 Cruzerlite cases had this issue) and they sent me a free replacement no questions asked! The headphone jack is large and the USB opening is small and will mushroom with the factory cable but that's no problem for me.
The second case is the TUDIA TPU case in 'clear'. The top and bottom are actually clear while the mid section is more of a frosted clear color. There are no button cutouts like on the Cruzerlite but instead molded buttons similar to the Diztronic. The TUDIA doesn't have a curve in the volume rocker like the diztronic but I like the feel of it better. The molded buttons have almost the same feel as the diztronic for those who like the molded buttons. I actually prefer this over Cruzerlite cutouts after using it for a while. The TUDIA also has the moto dimple cutout which is great because it makes a nice finger rest. I find myself missing this on the diztronic. Clear is my favorite "color" because I use dbrand skins on all of my phones and I want to show off the Nexus logo. I've used this case for about 9 days and it's holding up rather well. There are no noticeable marks yet and despite the many times over removed my phone to get dirt out it hasn't stretched out at all.
The last but not least is the Diztronic TPU case in black. The case is the thickest of the 3 only by a small margin. I don't have a digital caliper to double check it but I might go pick one up because they come in handy. The feel is very smooth and almost slippery. It reminds me a lot of the Spigen Neo Hybrid with a semi soft touch finish on it. There is no cutout on the case which kes the phone feel much bigger to me, but that's OK because the case is great. The headphone jack cutout is a little small but it fits my Bose headphones just fine. The USB cutout is small just like the other two and it will have a little "mushrooming" when you use the factory cable. To me this doesn't matter because I use my TYLT qi charger to charge the phone. The biggest downside to this case is the way it attracts fingerprints and oil from your hands. I mentioned above how this feels just like the back is the Neo Hybrid, well it attracts fingerprints just as much.... I still like the case and I may get a blue one to see if its less noticeable but only time will tell. In the 5 hours that I've had the case it's already scratched a good amount on the back from very light use. I'm rather disappointed about this, but I hope it will wipe off or blend in when I clean it tomorrow morning.
Overall I would buy all 3 cases again, but the TUDIA is now my favorite case because of the molded buttons and nice clean look. You can't go wrong by buying any of these cases.
Qi charging works on all 3 cases just fine. I tested it on 2 chargers (TYLT VU and my LG WCD-100)
Pictures of the ports, more pictures will be added in the morning.
Hey everyone,
Since I typically use a flip case (a regular case with a protective cover for the screen that flips open) with all the phones I've owned, I thought I'd open a thread to start a discussion about people's experiences and recommendations with flip cases for the 6T.
Share something and help someone with what product to use!

I'm currently using this one:
Foluu Compatible OnePlus 6T Case,... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07K2S5DFC?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf
Pros:
+ magnetic edge on flip cover afixes the flip cover to the back, neatly preventing flapping
+ the sides of the phone are completely covered by a transparent bumper, with cutouts only for usb, alert slider, and speakers
+ relatively screen protector friendly
Cons:
- not a smart cover
- back cover is not a single piece with the sides, adding to bulk
Again, the pro/con list reflects my personal preferences and of course, may not apply at all to you.
Orzly Wallet Flip Case looks decent enough. I am currently using the oneplus 6t flip case with card slot, and its okay. Doesnt flap much, but it does not compare to my last otterbox strada case for the iphone 8 plus. Still looking for something similar.
I've also purchased some ringke 3m card slots, both the plastic and the nylon to add to the tpu cover that was included with the phone. Although not a flipcase, the downside with not having a solid magnet or full edge protection gives higher probability of the phone landing face down when dropped.

I second the motion -- the Otterbox Strada on my Samsung S7 Edge is the gold standard for me. Most expensive case I've bought but has lasted many multiples longer than any other case. It's still a tank and still in use nearly three years later.
Closest case for OnePlus to that standard was the Tech21 flip case for my 6. Don't think they make it for the 6T though.
I'm using the flip case that I got from OnePlus when it's working fine.I've had better and I've had worse but pretty good I'm happy. No issues,, thinking about getting a OtterBox when they come out just for safety. But they're so big and bulky and ugly.,,,,,,,, I guess we'll see
I like cases.
My wife thinks that I have a fetish for phone cases.
I change them when I go out depending on what I feel like.
Here are the flip cases that I have purchased so far;
https://www.ebay.ca/itm/For-OnePlus...var=472229251615&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649
The traditional brown leather flip case.
https://www.ebay.ca/itm/For-OnePlus...var=591631248320&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649
Dr. Who TARDIS because....every phone needs to be inside a Tardis...
https://www.ebay.ca/itm/For-OnePlus...var=572979395291&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649
Blue leather scroll work for when I'm feeling like Jazz.
https://www.ebay.ca/itm/PIN-1-Art-C...var=472327549790&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649
Old School fun right here... I have purchased so many freaking cassettes over the years.. ugh. Why not put my phone in one...
I chose the white and green tape.
https://ca.mobilefun.com/olixar-xtome-leather-style-oneplus-6t-book-case-brown-70015
Old brown leather bound book.
I think that this book one will be my favorite flip case.
Only the Cassette tape case has come in so far.
It's a bit larger then a real cassette tape and it's a big large for the phone.
Then I've purchased another half dozen or so hard cover cases/non flip.

Damn, your wife's probably right..!
But it could be worse: you could have a phone fetish instead of a phone case fetish, and that would be much more expensive.
The flip cases that I have ordered so far have come in.
Also, two of the hard cases have arrived as well. (As an aside, I don't like any of those yet. We will see if the rest of the hard cases are any better)
I like the oneplus oem flip case because it is the only one that has a magnetic feature that turns the screen on and off.
That is nice.
But I find it too small and it doesn't offer much protection.
And it only has one debit card slot.
Not useful as a wallet.
The oneplus, cassette tape and book flip cases do not have a magnetic clasp to keep them closed.
I kind of like that feature.
It gives me a fidget to play with.
And it makes it more noticeable if someone opens the case to take my debit card? Dunno.
Lol
Taking a look at the back side of these cases, some of them are not like the others.
Some of the cutouts look off.
I haven't checked them to see if it affects function or not.
Honestly I don't use the camera much anyways.
If anyone has any questions about these cases, let me know and I will do my best to answer them.
If anyone has a suggestion of another flip case for me to try out, then I am all ears!
P.S. And yes. The book is my favorite case so far. Followed by the Tardis.
Hi, I am looking for the same, but it is so hard... I know exactly what I want but all of the good looking cases are plastic inside and all the silicone ones are not-so-good looking.
Anyone found so far a sleek and elegand flip case with silicone inside?
