looking to purchase a good, slim, case with a belt clip. Are there any cases out right now that have a belt clip?
Thanks

There's a few on eBay. I can see why a belt clip would be useful - small pockets would be one for starters. I personally would use one at work because our medical scrubs have very baggy pockets - my current phone has fallen out of them many many times - and I do not want this to happen to my SGNII when I finally get it (come on 32GB) - I wear an equally "unfashionable" belt bag (or "bum bag") UNDER my scrubs to carry the important things I need (wallet etc), many of us already use a belt clip which fits nicely over the cord that ties the scrubs. Others use a man bag - I think a belt clip looks better than this solution.
Some people will comment and say that they are unfashionable or out of date but sometimes people need things because they work for them. One of my friends at work has a SGNI and the number of times that he gets the comments "my god that looks like a 1980's phone" is more than I can remember (of course then he shows them the phone and shuts them well up!)
The second reason to use a belt mount would be that there is no way on earth you're going to get the SGNII out of a front pocket whilst sitting and I'd never put it in a rear pocket.
I've not found a slim solution yet, but give it time and I'm sure one will arrive - this phone seems to be even more popular than the SGNI (judging from what my local retailers have said) so once it hits the USA I'm sure case manufacturers will take some notice.

Just got a T-mobile Body Glove - 14 PICS!!!

And it is amazing! adds the perfect weight, doesn't seem to attract lint and it makes this phone look damn good! It has a detachable clip which i found can also be used as a kickstand i guess lol. Its 2 pieces consisting of a chrome cover and a textured back. I bought it for $30 from my local t-mobile store which was pretty steep in my opinion but i love it!

I agree. After looking at the pics, it's even more convincing that it's a similar one that I had for the G1 which I didn't like since it adds too much bulk than I wanted.
But thumbs up to the OP if he likes it, hopefully the corners don't wear out fast on you after putting in and pulling out of your pockets a lot.
this is the same case that bodyglove is selling on their website. I have been planning on buying one I am glad to see some pics. The kickstand is what is gonna do it for me!

Nice, I had a body glove for my G1. Really liked it. Just came from my T-Moblie store but all they had were the gel cases. Guess I'll have to wait.
I have one of these for my G1 and it is really nice for protecting the phone. After over a year the phone is still mint but the case itself started to peel about a month ago and it's getting bad now. It still works great though and the plastic clip is super heavy duty. I have dropped my G! many times in this thing and there is not a scratch on it. It is kind of bulky though but great protection.

You're legally required to have car and health insurance...and a case isn't comparable to car/health insurance. a case won't help when your screen cracks, or when your phone is stolen.

Bike Mount
This is the mount I use on my motorcycle. It is designed to fit the phone with the Seidio Active Case with kickstand. They have other models for other cases as well and they also have models that are designed for just the phone without a case. The mount is excellent and I have no complaints whatsoever with it. I also had one of these mounts for my previous phone as well. Never had any problems.

Look into the Rokbed by Rokform. Should be coming out soon and the mount is very very good. The Kraken is nice, but isn't very solid. If you're doing some hardcore riding there is a chance it could fall out or shake too much.

looks awesome now that its out! Problem is, case is 45$ and the bike mount is 69! Kind of pricey ;/
Also on the search for a bike mount.
One concern I've heard regarding the Rokform is that it's not at all waterproof. There are so many open areas that could potentially allow water to destroy your phone! And let's face it, if you're biking, you're probably going to encounter water. That (along with the insanely high price) is a definite deal breaker for me.
The Kraken at least has port covers.
I've been looking at the Ultimate Addons waterproof case on Amazon UK which comes with various handlebar mounts. It's sold through buybits UK as well.
www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B009YU7IMA/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1363340290&sr=8-3&pi=SL75
I don't think it's fully submersible waterproof but looks fine to use in a quick downpour.
It's just a little big for me for a full time case and I can't justify getting one just as a spare for the motorbike when my tank bag has a clear section for phones.

waterpfoof case for the s3

I know a lot of us has been looking for a waterproof shockproof dustproof snow proof case for our s3. Lifeproof has failed to deliver same goes for with otterbox, they are taking for ever. I found one that is available in a few hours. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/enflux/agilis-series-premium-galaxy-s3-case check it out. And it is cheaper than otterbox.
100k in 52 hours yea i highly doubt it'll reach its goal. Best of luck though.

In my situation cautious yes. I work in a really dusty enviroment and I use the case only in the workplace. And I got my earlier Sony's screen broken because of no case in the workplace....
I don't use this case in my freetime. It's just too bulky to have in your pocket and phone is a little more difficult to use.
There's couple disadvantages in the case:
- you can't press the powerbutton on the rightside. It's blocked because the hinges of the case are on the right side.
- I have had problems with the voice. I need to take the phone out of the case when talking with someone because they can't hear almost at all for some reason. I have not researched do anyone else have this problem and can I do something for it
I have also a bike clip for the case. I have not tested it yet (I have some plans to use the phone as a cycling computer in the summer time).
I'm little struct between this or Griffin Survivor (I have them both). Griffin Survivor is much better in almost every way (belt clip in Griffin case is really good) if you don't need water proofness but it's much harder to put the phone to the case and take if off.

Would an s3 with extended battery fit in this case, im already looking for quite a while for something like this but never realy wanted to order one because i am worried that it would not fit for extended batteries
Do these waterproof cases float? If no, what kind of depths can they handle? (I assume 1m)
I'm waiting for the otter armor.

Well for the first one I posted, the Seidio Convert holster, you can't buy it alone. You have to buy the Convert Add-On kit thing from the Seidio website. It's the only only one of the three (Surface, Active, Convert) that they don't sell individually. (yet?)
However, the price for the add-on thing is 29.95 which is the same price they sell the other 2 holsters for. The only difference is with this one you'll get a couple extra pieces for the same price.
You could most likely sell them to someone who already has the Seidio Surface case or the Best Buy version(the Platinum case)... that is what the add on is for anyway.
Keep the holster, sell the other 2 pieces or just leave them hanging around the house. lol I'm too lazy to sell something so I'll probably just have extra pieces floating around my house.

I'm sure Seidio will have one soon. I plan on getting a Convert as soon as they're available. Get the slimness of a tpu case for everyday use, then slap on the extras for heavy duty protection when needed. Best of both worlds.
You really shouldn't put a phone on a belt clip...

The Nexus 4 fit perfectly in the leather holster that BlackBerry released for the Z10. Based on the posted dimensions, I'm hoping that the Nexus 5 will fit in the holster for the Z30.
I may not be a huge fan of their phones but BlackBerry sure knows how to make a holster

My wife uses an otterbox on her iphone. Granted, without the belt clip but as with most women she throws the phone in her purse.
I always either had a naked iphone with seidio spring clip holster or seidio surface + kickstand and holster.
Either way, I'm not worried about the next man so you do as you want, I'll keep doing the same.

dont listen to these ppl making fun of belt clips. i always have one and i always will. having my precious phone just sloshing around in my pocket with dust/lint/keys/whatever will NEVER happen. having said that, i have no idea whats wrong with Seidio. they are always so far behind everyone else with their cases/clips. N5 has been leaked for months. hell, i probably could have engineered one by now with the detailed specs that were leaked out (wish i had a damn 3d printer). hopefully soon...

I have used Seidio holsters since the HTC Sensation. I have used the N4 Active holster for the N4 with bumper and works to this day. Pic attached.
I'll try it out on my existing Seidio N4 holsters and report back when I get my N5 in the coming weeks. Unless of course, someone beat me to it.
I use belt clips only for the work week. I work in the office and it's the best way to transport it, rather than pocket it. I have keys and such that will scratch anything, even GG3. I hate pocket lint on my phones. I hate it as much as you with the fanny pack lol.
Not sure if you are looking for a case that also had a belt clip but if you want a holster that clips on to your belt I just ordered this one.

I have a Seidio Surface case + holster for S3. Just did some eye-balling from my naked N4 in it. I believe a naked N5 will fit in it... perhaps not so snug. I have a Ringke Slim coming next week. That should be enough to fill the small gap, and protect the back of the phone from the holster clip.
