Top loading holster that fits a TPU case? - Galaxy S III Accessories

I know there are the Seidio-style spring clip holsters, but I've always preferred the top loading ones. Does anyone have one or can recommend a brand to look at?

I got one from the att store

Compatible Cases?

Are there any compatible cases with this phone? Like the Desire HD case? I know it's basically a US port of one of those European HTCs...
I got a clamshell case from the VZ store with my purchase. Black with a textured surface. Its exactly the same as the one I had for my Incredible. Has a belt holster/clip. Very nice.
Does it have an opening for the kickstand?

Which case are you referring to? The Desire one I mentioned? Can you link me to the one you're using on your TB?
I got the Innocase combo from Seidio. I was a bit wary after the POS they released for the OGDroid but this one is pretty nice. It's a two piece combo that slides 'over' the phone (from top and from bottom) and 'clicks' securely shut. No fit issues, kickstand is fully functional and all the wholes are there (i.e. two mic wholes ect.). I particularly wanted 'screen-in' holster and it's all working great.

Ballistic Maxx Case

The holster format swivel. Other than that this looks nice. Unfortunately i need my phone horizontal instead of vertical. I could be wrong.

I have this case/holster. it does have a ratcheting clip on the holster btw. anyway what I was gonna say is regarding the screen protector. I had a screen protector on my phone before getting this case. I tested out the screen responsiveness with the ballistic SP over my SP and it suffered badly. So i chose not to use it. Maybe I will try to remove my SP and try the ballistic SP on it one day.

This case is great,
Cons: Smells horrible, Smells like petroleum (which it is made of) if the phone is a foot away from me it is very potent.
Needs a kickstand.

My maxx case came in the mail the other. I put it on right away just to find out the hard back cover doesn't stay on the rubber case. That sort of got me upset. Even the screen cover layer was a bit deformed. It was concave inward, not straight. Anyone else had a similar experience?

Hows the Hc case?
Sent from my Galaxy S3 using neighbors wifi
Its great. It's thin and durable (I use it without the optional outer rubber layer). Covers the ports of headphones and charger. There are also plastics films to protect the camera lens and flash lens. Only annoying hindering aspect would be the power button and home button. You need press with a bit of force. Taking it off is a hassle too, but I knew that when I purchased it. I popped off the built in screen protector since I have a zagg hd on mine, so I can't comment on that. It feels great and the kick stand isn't flimsy. Overall it is a great product.

Holster that covers around all edges

I've searched for a couple hours... XDA and Google. I'm trying to find a holster, but all I can find is one that the top and bottom are open. I'd like to find one that wraps all the way around the phone. Preferebly a rubber one, I believe it's called tpu. Any ideas where to find. Thanks

You looking for holster or case? the ballistic sg maxx would be your best bet. My wife has it on her gs3 and its a real nice case, i envy her from time to time
Looking for a holster. But as I look at them I realize that most of them are 2 pieces. One being the piece around the phone, the second being the holster itself, the part with the clip. I'll check that ballistic one out though

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think I read somewhere the corners are interchangeable? Meaning possibility of swapping put those big bulky corners? I'm not to crazy about those.

Nope. Its a 2 piece case. The only interchangeable corners case ive seen, is the ballistic LS, and just to change the color.

Need help with a case for a gift

I want to get my dad a nice case and holster for fathers day, I've got a nexus so I don't know the options for his S3. I like the otterbox commuter because the silicone is held tight at the top and bottom by the outer layer. If anyone knows of a horizontal holster that fits this well let me know (like the defender series holster). I would really prefer horizontal over the vertical clip in style, even though I know they all swivel. I don't like the defender because he won't like the soft outer layer or built in hard screen protector. The ballistic SG MAXXX has the horizontal holster and hard outer case, but I don't like how the outer layer doesn't cover the top and bottom. Any suggestions for a commuter holster or different case combo?
I would check out the body glove toughsuit. Its similar to the defender, but the outer layer is more of a you material. You can also pull the built in screen protector out pretty easy. They sell them at Walmart if you want to check one out in person.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
Nah, the hard inner layer and soft outer layer isn't logical in my opinion. He works in construction so it needs good drop protection. I might just go with the commuter and get the Seidio active holster.
I use the otterbox defender and am also in construction and it serves me well.
Sent while sleeping in chair.
The outer layer is not soft. Its riggid and way better than the defender its Not tacky and grippy. Ive had them both before.
The commuter is not a good decision Imo. Most likely gonna slip out of hes hand lol.
Ive had the ballistic sg maxx before which would be my 2nd choice over the toughsuit

I'm thinking I'll just go with the SG MAXX, it's seems to fit the bill the best. I might consider getting the commuter and seidio active holster, I've seen someone else post that combination on here.

any nexus 5 cases with a belt clip also?

hello i always have used otterbox defender cases on every phone i have had. becasue i like that they have a belt clip.. i never put my phones in my pockets.. so i wanted to kno of any nexus 5 cases that come with belt clip
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...
Its kinda like blue jean shorts, strap-on sandles, and mullets. You. Just. Don't. Do it.

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

Easy. Phones on belt clips are ridiculous. Anything that I mentioned should be avoided. All of them look ridiculous. Just ask your girlfriend or wife, they know. Besides, it's 2013 not 1999.

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.

Nothing wrong with a belt clip. I mainly need mine to keep the screen faced in for protection. And for a quick draw. Lol

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...
Waiting for a belt clip that would fit the neo hybrid...
Having a phone this big in my pocket is crazy.

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.

Choose the LG G2 size as that is the phone with the closest dimensions.

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.
