V60i Leather case or Holster?

[7]

I'm debating between using a Holster or a leather case for my V60i. Can you guys give me some opinions and and experiences? Does the holster scratch the phone at all, or on the top part where it hooks in? Should I go for the looks with the holster, or play it safe with the leather case? Which one looks more business man like in your opinion?

Thanks.

The phone will probably scratch itself long before a holster will (it will scratch where the top of the flip goes under the front cover when you open the phone). If you use the holster, use it in the vertical position. If you rotate it to horizontal, it will eventually pop out when you bend over. The leather cases are nice to protect the phone, but they make it look kind of bulky, defeating the reason for having such a small phone. When I want the phone on my belt, I usually use a horizontal leather pouch - this way I can remove the phone for use and have it protected and convenient when not in use. Lately, I have just been keeping the phone in my pocket.

How's about at an angle, just between horizontal and vertical? Will it be okay there? Hey does it scratch in your pocket, like the screen part? All this time I had my phone, i've been holding it in my hand so it does'nt get scratched.

Thanks.

I have a leather case that clips to my belt which came from Levenger. It holds my phone, credit cards and some money. So far, I like it better than any of the holsters or cases.

The farther the arm that holds the top of the phone leaves vertical, the more chance of the phone popping out - in between might work ok. If that top arm gets pressure on it from behind (like from your waist when you bend) it will release the phone.

I have not had any problems with the phone or display getting scratched in my pocket, but I make sure not to put anything else in that pocket with the phone.
