I have a V-180 and use an upright leather pouch that clips to my belt. It offers a lot of protection should I drop the phone while it's in the pouch and it is secure.

My Motorola V551 didn't come with a case/holster either. Maybe Motorola is saving money too? My V60t and my StarTac both came with holsters.

I keep my phones in cases or leather covers. I want to keep them in as good condition as possible. I've managed to keep my phones looking almost as good as the day I bought them. This comes in handy when you are tied to a two year contract and you can't get the newest phone out there because of the arm and leg it will cost to get it.

Actually my co-workers' lg 8100 and Moto E815 didn't either
but even though I got the treo as a warranty replacement, it still was a 400.00 phone w/ 2 yr contract

I am using the included pouch that came with my PPC6600, and nothing for my LG.

I hope to get a nice case for my PPC6600 soon. The pouch is OK, but has a few negatives.

I don't like leather cases because it takes away from the phone. The cool look of it.

Genuine Nokia leather or suede cases.

Unfortunately, the Nokia suede case I use for my 6800 has been discontinued.

At work I use the VZW branded leather case to keep my phone clean (I'm a machanic). But any other time I have a leather pouch cliped to my belt.

I don't use a leather case anymore with the e815, I just carry it around 'naked' since the leather case seems to kind of scratch up the top silver part of my phone. Does that happen to your phone at all?

Sounds borderline OCD . j/k Tony.

Depends on the phone, I carry it in a pouch on my belt, unless it's my work phone, which I carry naked in my pocket. I carry my Razr in the leather case that came with it, and I use that little Moto pillow that came with it to clean the screens and keypad.

I just carry my phone around if I am waiting for a call, or just in my pocket. Nothing happens to my phone... looks almost brand new. The only signs are the dust stuck to the rubber cover over the headphone port and a little fuzzy patch of scratches on the screen when i put my keys in my pocket and forgot the phone was there lol.

Default Re: what do most people use with their cell phone?

The only case/clip accessory I ever used for a cell phone was the snap-on clip for my Timeport for about two days. I couldn't get used to it so I stopped using it. It was a pretty well-made clip, though.
Also, I got a leather case with my Motorola StarFish organizer but I think the case was actually designed for a StarTAC or Vader handset, I'm not sure. I didn't really fit the organizer, though.

I keep my phone in my pocket although I tried a leather case but did not like it, I like to feel the phone in my hand the leather case seems to add bulk. Then I used to use the plastic holster clip but that leaves the phone open to a lot of damage, it's like being a goaltender in hockey with out a mask remember those days,how insane were those guys!?
