Belt Holster - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Does anyone recommend a good belt case holster? I prefer a vertical one, and one big enough to fit in with a tpu case... any suggestions?
I am considering these...

http://www.amazon.com/Seidio-HLSSEP...IRT6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328824221&sr=8-1
or this in case I want to use my TPU cover..

I've heard the holster for the Seidio Surface case will hold a TPU case as well if it's slim enough. Very good holster BTW.

EDIT: Saw the link for the Seidio holster in your OP. I wouldn't go with that one because it is made for a phone with no case on it.

Well I personally have one but the only case I can try with it is the Surface which is what it was made for lol Although if it's no different than most of the TPU cases on the market I'm sure it will fit fine.

Thanks andy2na!!
Going to try one for that price.
17.74 and free shipping
Darnet! I just ordered the bodyglove, and will be returning the official Samsung case as it doesn't close all the way.
The Seidio stuff is awesome. Had their case for the Droid and it was really great. Good quality, the feel of the surface is just rubbery enough to give good grip but not stick inside your pocket.
Let me know when it's available for sale!
Thank you!
I have a Seidio clip holster for my Blackberry that I absolutely love. It's great that they are starting to put stuff out for the Captivate now. I guess I'll be buying both the Innocase Surface and holster combo as soon as they are available. You just saved me from buying the Body Glove case at AT&T, something I was planning to do today after work.
Literally a soon as I ordered the body glove I checked seidio's site and they had finally posted up a case, I'm just hoping for am active case or maybe a rugged one

[Q] Slimmest case?

I am looking to get the slimmest case possible for my Captivate. From the research I have done so far it looks like the BodyGlove TPU or the Innocase II Surface might be the best options. Can anyone who has some experience with these cases comment on how much bulk they add to the phone?
Thanks.

The cheap Ebay/Amazon silicone rubber cases are probably the thinnest.
What's wrong with a skin?

I use the Amzer Luxe Argyle style case. It's thinner than the Bodyglove. Only problem is the power button is a bit harder to push through the skin.

I considered it, but I think I want a bit of impact protection. I will likely skin it underneath the case so I can use it without as well.

military grade screen protection all around.
no bulk no case no nothing. except film,
The Body Glove Mirage has been working great for me so far. Its quite thin
I just got my argyle case off ebay in the mail. I am thoroughly impressed in the quality and fit, very well worth it for the $8.53 I paid. I like it more than my body glove TPU case.

Good Mytouch 4G case

So currently I have a cheap case I bought on ebay and it's messing up my invisibleshield on the sides. Whenever I grip the sides it pushes up against the shield and dust gets in there.
I'm considering buying a new case but I'm not sure what one to get so it won't mess up the shield. Anyone have any ideas? I was thinking the tpu case but I'm not sure. What do you guys think?

Hands down the best cases you can get for your phone at the TPU fusion cases. All TPU cases are great, but the TPU fusion just has a slightly higher level of detail.
There is a thread in this section about the TPU fusion cases that also has an online coupon code for like 10% off their already really cheap price.
I would link but I'm feeling lazy today. Happy hunting

I agree! Best case I've used so far (and I've used silicone, tpu, trident cyclops, and the aegis). Thing rocks and really does protect

Used to have more colors but now only have black, clear and red.
Act quick!
I originally bought the black gel skin from T-Mobile when I bought my phone. It was a lint magnet, though, and it added a significant amount of bulk to the phone. So I ended up buying a translucent smoke colored TPU case, OEM HTC variety, from Amazon. It's nice, feels good, looks good, has cutouts for all the buttons (so they aren't hard to press like some TPU cases) and doesn't add a huge amount of bulk to the phone, while also making it easier to hold onto.
I have used the Otterbox Commuter and the TPU Fusion case. I switch between the two. Plus they both protect the phone well and fit inside of my Seidio holster.
Trident aegis case FTW

Is the Seidio holster you're using the standard one for the MT4G? Or did you have to use a larger size? I'm looking for a good case to replace the Seidio one I'm currently using, but I like the design of the Seidio holster...

As previously stated, the trident case is very good, but if your not willing to spend the money you can go for the TPU fusion. Its cheaper, and still has a modern look to it.

lol this seems like itll feel weird, especially in the pocket
the TPU Fusion case is the best ive seen..
the regular silicone cases are nice too but the rubber is so grip-y that its hard to pull the phone out of the pocket lol
The trident case looks great I'm going to order it.
my sister has the TPU case and i think im going to pick one up they look great and feel good in the hands.

It's not so much a case IMO but more of a glove. The phone remains extremely slim still and its pretty stiff.

Try the Otterbox Commuter case. It's fairly cheap for a otterbox, and it looks like it'd be a good case that would work well with invisishield,

Case with holster (sorry for another case thread)

Hey everyone,
I am looking for some feedback on this case: http://www.ebay.com/itm/390492036942?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
Or point me in a direction of someone who make a case with a holster. I really like the UAG case but I don't want a case and then buy an even bigger holster to put the phone on my side.
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you
imo dont expect top notch quality with those china items.. the Ballistic SG series has holster, the OB defender (imo its ugly) lol..
http://www.goballisticcase.com/products/samsung-galaxy-s-3-ballistic-sg-maxx-series-case
I have been through about 6 cases.
I wanted full coverage with a holster. Sadly most cases that offer decent protection add a ton of bulk.
This Ballistic case adds very little bulk. Your phone still feels slim and comfortable. The Otterbox adds way too much bulk and the built-in screen protector is garbage. The Ballistic screen protector is a separate piece and can be left out. It is still not the clearest.
If you want options in a case then go with this:
http://www.seidioonline.com/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-convert-value-pack-black-p/bd5-hkr4ssgs3.htm
It has a hard shell for everyday. Then a silicon surround and plastic exo skeleton.

If you want a great case definitely go with any Seidio case, plus there holsters are top notch and very sturdy! I'm using this one http://www.seidioonline.com/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-surface-case-holster-black-p/bd2-hr3ssgs3-bk.htm and I got it off Amazon for $12 shipped for the case and holster. It barely feels like there is even a case on the phone. I've been using Seidio cases and clips since my old treo pro.

The GS3 otter box defender holster looks to have the same sort of phone-side clip as the incredible s does. It's incredibly fragile and will break off if you look at it funny. I went though 3 of the holsters in a matter of months (their warranty service is top notch at least) before giving up on it and using a commuter case with a pouch holster until I replaced that phone.
I just ordered a seidio extended battery and one of their active cases, so I'll give my opinion of it when it arrives. The clip is an entirely different design.

yeah i read about the fragile clip and about the rubber getting loose in few weeks. Thats the reason i asked for a refund from the seller on ebay. He gave me a full refund, and the next thing I know a week later i received the case in the mail lol.. so got it free basically. Lack of communication on their end i guess. But overall I dont like the case much. I would give the ballistic a try.

I love the idea of minimal cases and whatnot but I at times need rugged tough protection.
Has anyone come across any rugged style protection for the One?

I bought both Tudia and Diztronic and kept the Tudia, I returned the Diztronic it just didn't feel right in the hands.
I hope one of these companies who make rugged cases do one for the OPO. I wouldn't mind some sort of rugged case. I typically use a very thin case however there are times where I would like the added protection.
i don't understand how you could count the tudia as a rugged case? looks like a normal tpu case!

It's the most rugged you're going to get right now. It is thicker than the cruzerlite.
I have both the tudia and the cruzerlite. They both seem to offer the same amount of protection, but the tudia seems more slippery in the hand.
