Same here...only one i've seen so far is the otterbox....but it's very bulky. I hope theres other option coming soon.

Yeah bought the otter box but I will be returning it. The case makes the phone too large. Also the clip holster is huge as well.

I bought the bodyglove case from att.com and picked up a universal bodyglove smartphone pouch this morning at walmart. Now my phone is protected and I can carry it on my belt.

You could probably find a good one for cheap on Ebay

I tried an Atrix 'thin' case from a mall kiosk today for $10 and was about to grab it until I found I couldn't really use the fingerprint scanner. It seemed that either the hole wasn't big enough or the material was too thick around the fingerprint reader.
I too am looking for a belt-clip case that swivels with no magnet for the Atrix.

write to seidioonline... they make great clips...

I'm using the feather case in a droid x plastic belt clip swivel holster. Works great! The holster is a lil taller than the phone tho. It worked great on my captivate as well. Would def. Recommend to anyone that wanted easy access to the phone asap

Why no magnet? Does that cause a problem?
Reason I ask is that I found a Duracell leather carrying case at the dollar store that has a magnetic closure in the flap. I figured I'd wait and get the protective case (probably a Body Glove Mirage or an Incipio Feather) first than then confirm that it fits in the Duracell case before buying it. It's a really nice looking belt-clip carrying case.

magnets are what causes it to go into the car docking app i believe, so it would cause it to launch whenever a magnet gets near it

I am using one from an old Samsung blackjack and it fits perfect. A lot cheaper than anything coming out also!

I bought a nice universal one for 30 from att fits perfectly and I can charge while its closed

Followup about the Duracell leather case. The Atrix naked will barely fit longwise. With a Body Glove Mirage case on the phone, the Duracell case is too tight.

I don't believe that is correct. AT&T sells an AGF Premium Leather Case for $39.99 (too pricey for me)
The description reads:
AGFs Premium Leather Pouch is made from beautifully crafted leather. This case is equipped with special sleeper magnets so that when your device is placed in the case, it automatically goes into sleep mode and helps preserve your battery life. AGFs Premium Leather Pouch also includes our 180-degree rotating belt clip, allowing for adjustable placement and maximum comfort. Our attractive magnetic flap, with a contrasting leather stripe, makes securing your phone amazingly simple. This pouch has all the utility you'd expect, paired with the style you want.

So apparently magnets don't make the phone activate the car docking app.

Not so fast. Apparently ATT just generalizes. Just check the problems everyone is having from this case from the reviews at ATT.

Yeah they really do. I absolutely love the clip for my Blackberry 9700. It was a shame they didn't have a solution for my Captivate (without using their case). Definitely hope they do something for the Atrix though!

Case with belt clip

I just bought a $3 (with shipping) plastic case with belt clip on Ebay, and it was a bust. Its securing clip locks into the detent for the battery cover and the only way to remove the phone from the case is to wrestle it loose, and in most cases the battery cover pops off in the process. Unacceptable.
I only need a cheap case for the gym, something that gives access to the earphone jack and has a belt clip. I would also like for the phone to be removable easily. Any other time and the phone stays in my pocket. Any recommendations?

Why not try one of the arm band pouches that people always put their iDevice in?

If you don't have a case on your phone, check this out. More than 3 bucks but this is the type of thing you're looking for:
Can't hyper link, I'm apparently too new.
Search on amazon for "Seidio Spring-Clip Holster"
You really just need a holster.

i bought this case and really like it,

I got this case when I first got the phone. I wasn't sure I would like it. That was 8 months ago.
About a mount back, I took the clip off my belt and just dropped the clip on the floor in the bedroom. Somewhere in the process I stepped on it and cracked it. So at $7 I just bought two more (the cracked one actually still worked fine).
This case usually is great because of the texture that keeps it from slipping.
But just last night at work, I was carrying my phone and as I moved it from one hand to the other, it slipped. It went crashing to the concrete floor and slid about 8 feet. I can't find a mark on the phone or case anywhere. hard to believe but even the case is spotless from the fall to the concrete.
One of the best investments I have made right there.

Amazon/Verizon Holster
That Amazon/Verizon Holster is the same one I have. But I overpaid at Verizon. $20. Get it at Amazon. Verizon makes enough in overcharging. It is the exact same one. I really like it also. But I will warn you, this one too is a bit tough to get out of the holster without "popping the back. It is made to be snug. The brand Imprinted on mine is Qmadix. Hope this helps.

This. Ordered it with amazon prime yesterday and got it today. Also let me be the first to tell you I have tried just about every case, and this basic shell/holster always comes out best.

I got this a verizon for $20. Like another poster, I was really happy with it untol I stepped on the belt clip on the flor and cracked it. Found it on Anazon and bought two. This works VERY well IMHO. I've tried others, and always return to this.

I have been using the Platinum case with clip from Best Buy. I believe its the same as the Seido. Looks great, and has protected the phone well, and the clip is easy and convenient to use.

Shipping is double the cost of the holster! Are they still $20 at Verizon?
This was my favorite case for my Droid X! Always seemed to come back to this one bc of its size and it comes with a belt clip.

I have the platinum case that came with a belt clip that you can attach to the cover.
But it was about $30 if I remember.

Need suggestion for horizontal leather belt holster.

I'm trying to find a decent horizontal leather holster for my new S3.
I'm talking about something that looks like the attached file. (apparently I am too lame yet to use a url)
I really like this case but I need it sooner than 2-3 weeks that it would take to ship from Hong Kong. So, if someone has an idea where I can find this case stateside or something similar that will hold the phone with a thin protective case like the Rock case. It should also either have 2 belt loops or a snap that keeps the clip from sliding off my belt.
Thanks.

Check your local ATT corporate store. I ordered a couple leather cases off of ebay and amazon but something was always wrong with them. Either felt cheap or to small to fit my GS3 with a thing case on it. The one at ATT cost as much as the 5 I ordered online but at least I could place my phone in it to see if it fits before I bought it. The case itself has two belt loops and a plastic clip that is not removable. It literally feels like it was made for the GS3 with a small case on it.

I ended up ordering the one from ebay. I know the quality is likely to be bad, but I am extremely hard on these things. I have a hard time paying for a holster that is just going to be broken in 2 months anyway. Even the holsters I get from the stores are this way. In any case, I ordered the holster + black shell combo. I'll see about giving it a quick review when I get them in.
Thanks for the suggestions all.

Lateral or Vertical Belt Case?

Does anyone have experience wearing the HTC One on a belt? What would you say is more comfortable/practical for everyday use (including at work), vertical or lateral style? I wore vertical for smaller phones before, but not sure with HTC One since it's pretty big,
On another note, does anyone also have experience with fortte? Seems to offer a lot of custom choices, such as a snap-on closure or Velcro. More importantly, they offer a choice between a fixed metal belt clip (leather), belt loop, or a heavy duty removable ratchet clip (made of plastic). Which belt clip/style would you recommend?

I had some cases from Noreve.
And all I can say: clips - evil!
Belt loop only.

I use the otterbox defender to protect the phone. It works great. How ever the belt clip sucks. I have been looking for any belt clip that will work. Please help.

Good vertical case from ebay
I recently bought my HTC ONE and I have always used lateral belt pouches. Coming from HTC EVO 4G LTE is about the same size. I purchased a full body protectors like the ones from zagg but also on ebay and I have the vertical belt leather pouch which I was impressed of the quality and for 18 bucks and change it is really worth it. Here is the link to the pouch I got from ebay. I use this belt clip every day regular use and at work. I work in an office and sitting down for 8 hours with this belt pouch on does not bother at all. I guess it all depends where you wear your belt pouch. I usually wear mine just behind the front pockets of my pants. I would not wear anything in front or forward of my pockets because is uncomfortable.:good:

Edit: I have bought some other belt clips on ebay that states that are leather and good quality but after 3 months they start to peel off and the clips will start to come out. So far this one looks top notch build.

I bought this one.

I love it, it works both vertical and horizontal I use it on my belt at work and hang it on my pocket on my Jeans on the weekends. It is snug and sturdy and has a decent kickstand.

I have always had vertical cases/pouchs before. I just got a hortizantal one. It is OK but I would prefer to find one that fits vertical.
The one I got was item 251337384318 on Ebay. It is a Rieko brand. The phone fits great with the otterbox Commuter. There is a little extra room in the case but not so much that the phone slides around. The case appears to be of good quality.
I am not affilated with the seller, I just wanted to let people know that this pouch will work.
Here is the ebay description.
"This XXL size case will fit your Samsung Galaxy S4 or S3 with a thick hybrid such as the Otterbox Defender or Armor series,or Ballistic phone cases
High quality PU leather pouch with velvitine interior that will protect your phone from scratches
Durable belt clip with added belt loops for extra security that will attach to belt or purse.
Easily accessible with magnetic closure.
Compatibility: Fits the Samsung Galaxy S4 or S3 (Universal for all carriers) with a thick hybrd case such as the Otterbox Defender, Armor, or Ballistic series. Also fits the Note 1 / Note 2 with a single layer protector.
Inside Dimensions: 6.0" x 3.4" x .65"."

I wear mine horizontally. Vertically is too long when you sit down and makes it awkward to grab at depending on the holster. Mine is from Platinum Series bought at Best Buy. Had the same one for my HTC One X and loved it. Latch is spring loaded so it is secure when it's holding the phone and easy to release/snap back into. Take a look into it, it's only about $40 for the case and holster combo.

Platinum case and holster is pretty good, indeed. But if you get the one with a kickstand, your compass won't work (magnet in the kickstand), so beware (there is a case without a kickstand, too).

Galaxy S3 Lifeproof

So, I have my lifeproof nuud case, and it works great. I'm happy with it overall, except for one tiny detail. For some reason Lifeproof doesn't make a belt clip, and when I contacted them they said they have no plans for any accessories for the Galaxy phones. Does anybody have any suggestions on holsters or alternatives? It's insanely frustrating.

Try one of the seidio holsters. Either the convert or the seidio obex holster. Don't know what size is the lifeproof

Given the otterbox armor series is larger then lifeproof idk if this will work. But i bought a cheap Note2 fake leather belt pouch, and it fits loke a glove.

I personally use the the holster for the Seidio Obex, which is just about the right size. The Obex is only a little taller and thicker than the lifeproof, so you only need to pad out the bottom a little.
I also tried the convert plus holster, but it's too narrow to fit the lifeproof.
Been trying to find a good material for the padding though. Foam tape and such just tend to get crushed down after a couple weeks.

Good to hear! How secure is the fit, out of curiosity? Heading into the field for work soon, I like the fact that my lifeproof is waterproof, but have been debating using my Defender just because of how secure it is.

Without the padding is not very secure, but with it is very good.
Personally, I wouldn't call the defender holster very secure. It holds great under normal conditions, but with my incredible s, I broke 3 of those holsters thanks to the dumb flexing-hard-plastic clip design holding the phone in place and the s3 version appears to have the same design unless they've switched to a different plastic formula.

BTW the obex holster has Locking Mechanism, so it wont go anywhere! Ive have the obex clip on the fake lifeproof case of my gs3 and the fit is great. Once locked its not going anywhere. But i do know that the real LP and fake LP are different dimensions thats why i said i wasnt sure.

Good to hear, I'm guessing foam tape is the current best thing for padding, anybody have other suggestions?

The foam tape I tried needed to be replaced every 2 weeks or so.
My latest attempt is filling in the bottom of the holster with some polyurethane construction adhesive I had laying around.
Didn't quite get the thickness right on the first try. I'll add in some more when I have a couple days when I don't need it, as the stuff takes semi-forever to fully set.

Ah it's a canvas type similar to the leather ones. I actually bought it in downtown Los Angeles at a small no name shop. Brand Name is Reiko if that helps.
