Good Product. Superior to one provided by manufacture through cell phone company.
If the manufacturers had used metal instead of plastic they would have had a winner. But the design has a major flaw in that the encased structure is made of stiff, brittle plactic that eventually failed. I give them 2 stars for a structurally inadequate design. I enjoyed this holster for about 6 months before one of the side wings broke off rendering it useless. Overall it has a simple, sleek design, that allowed full access to all the functions of the phone while still in the holster, and the exterior leather gives it a nice feel. But unfortunately they went the cheap route and I paid the price ($30).
Easy to put on and pull off the phone, held the phone tightly, easy to fasten and unfasten from the belt-clip for easy, instant access. Like other reviewers, I really liked this case. Then the phone hooked onto my seatbelt and fell out again. I have had a Treo 600 since they first came out, and when I upgraded recently to the Treo 650, this case was included. When it comes to cases, durability is the number one issue with me, and unfortunately, an otherwise great design couldn't take the heat. It allows great access to all the features (screen, keys, camera, connections, etc).
But after only three weeks, the phone made its final drop when it fell out onto the Sam's club floor for no apparent reason - until I noticed that the case was broken. I'll be the first to tell you, I'm hard on phone cases. I've tried at least seven different cases, and have worn them all out (except for one). All was fine, until I bumped it somehow, and the phone fell out.
My first one started dropping out of the case as the case became more flexible with time. However, anyone who gave this a great review hasn't used it for more than 3 months. I tried to bend it to tighten it and it broke. I love this belt clip. Its so easy to get on and off and you have access to all the buttons. I thought maybe I had a bum case, so I bought another and the same thing happened.
However, the tab on the back broke off twice turning the holder into a useless paperweight. Short and sweet.I loved this item. I am now using a $2.99 plastic version from China.
