Has anyone used the Verizon holster shell combo? I've used them in the past for previous phones and they've been great. Am having a really hard time finding a good holster for this phone that is low profile. Has anyone had any things to say about the Verizon holster?
https://www.seidioonline.com/product/google-pixel-2-xl-surface-holster/
I think at this point, I am down to either the surface holster or the Verizon holster. Does anyone have any experience with either of these? At least until zizo comes out, I'm just looking for a nice low profile holster obviously sideload would be preferable but not necessary
I have been very happy with the Seidio Surface case and holster combo on this and previous Pixel and Nexus phones.

Are they sideload? Or top-load? I'm assuming that the holster has the same 360° swivel that previous models have? Thanks

As the pictures in your link show, the Seidio holster is top-load and it does have the 360° swivel.

So does anybody happen to own both an otterbox commuter and a seidio active holster and know if they work together? I love my defender but it is a tad bulky. Since I work in a chainsaw shop having a holster that faces screen in is a must. I know buying both is about the same price I just love how you can see the entire beautiful front glass on this phone with the commuter. Any feedback or opinions are much appreciated.

I'm thinking it would fit even better, like you don't have to force it into the bottom of the holster if it was an active holster. In the past with other phones I've had the commuter and active series of cases have been almost identical in size. Good to know it works with the smaller holster though. If anyone has tried the active holster please help us out.

Hey all. Does anyone know of a good quality case that clips onto a belt? Preferably one that will last through some physical activity (those fake leather pouches will fall apart). Also huge plus if anyone has experience with a recommended case and knows that it can survive some random bursts of jogging or running (I've had some cheap magnetic ones that would open up and make my phone fly).
Secondly, anyone know of a belt case/pouch that is big enough to fit a protective HTC One case? For example, an Otterbox Commuter? This particular criterion has made my search much harder, but finding one would save me a headache.
I'd love some suggestions. Thanks!

That's actually pretty interesting, although not sure if that will function in more everyday situations as well.
Also, does anyone know if SEIDO's ACTIVE Holster is compatible with the Otterbox Commuter? I've read that for a few other phone models, for some reason SEIDO's Holster fits the Commuter perfectly, but wasn't able to confirm if it's the same for the HTC One.
I was also suggested fortte and bugatti-mobilecases
Would definitely love more suggestions!

Nope. Commuter and active holster don't fit. Commuter is a little thicker. I love the commuter, but need a clip from time to time. The active case is very nice though.
I am looking for one as well. I use the commuter. I always had a ppouch for my OG EVO4G w/commuter and had no issues. 2 months of the ONE with the commuter and I now have a scratch in the screen. I really need a good quality pouch.
I ordered the Otterbox Defender for my One today, it supposedly comes with a belt clip. It's about $38 on Amazon.
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.

Hi I have generic lifeproof case for the galaxy s3 decided to switch to the seido obex and the belt clip works great for my lifeproof case.
Just wondering if anyone has tried to match the two of these together....
I purchased a Diztronic TPU case for my Nexus 5 - I would like to place it into a Seidio Surface holster while I am at work.
Does anyone know if the Diztronic and the Seidio holster work together with the Nexus 5?
Thanks
Well my Surface holster just showed up tonight and my guess is it would be a no go. The stock bumper case fits but extremely tight on the bottom. My Ringke fusion case is a little more snug then the official bumper case. Both are a little to thick. Prefect fit side to side and height wise. I had an active holster and Ringke e fusion for my N4 and was sloppy so I figured I would try the surface holster. Taking my holster in to work tomorrow and pull out the die grinder and do some trimming and I think it will fit perfectly after take a little bit out of the bottom of the holster. I hope this helps you out.

I don't have the Diztronic case but I did have both the Cruzerlite and Diztronic cases for my EVO 4G LTE and they both worked flawlessly with the seidio surface holster for that phone. My assumption is that the Diztronic would work fine with the surface holster like the cruzerlite cases do

I just got the Diztronic TPU for my Verizon LG G2, and it fits PERFECTLY in the Seidio Surface holster!!!! The Nexus 5 is basically the same phone as the G2, so I am 99% sure it will be fine for you.
I would point out that the only thing that's a little awkward is that the non-slip "grip" of the TPU material is so grippy that you can't easily "pop the phone in" past the hinged clip - you have to lift the hinge back with one finger, put the phone in, and then let the clip spring back over the phone. Not a big deal, but just "different". I guess I'll have to learn a new hand motion.
I've always used a Seidio Surface case and holster on all of my previous phones, but noticed that they have gone out of business. Does anyone know of a company that is or will be making such a combo for the Pixel 5?
They're expensive, but I've used a Quad Lock case in the past. I used the bike mount with great success, and they have belt clips too. They're rock solid and cannot be accidentally removed from their mounts.

I finally have my P5, bought this case, and have ordered the Google wireless charging stand. Does it work with wireless charging?
While this is a great protective case, it's too bulky for my taste, the dust cover over the charging port is a pain to fold back to plug in a cable, and the phone release clip on the holster is very hard for me to manage with one hand.
I've been searching but haven't found anything close to the Seidio Surface case and holster I've used and loved on my previous phones. I've seen a couple similar ones for other phones, but not for the P5. If anyone finds one, please let me know.
Two case/ holster Amazon combinations that work for me: minimal protection and cost is the Aliber case holster - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08MX3JFSD/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Slightly more rugged case is the Spigen Ultra Hybrid - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08D61VH6X/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The holster that is a perfect fit for the Spigen case is Encase belt cilp for the Spigen Tough Arnor for the S7, the fit couldn't be better.

YES! thanks Tom. I had been using the Pixel 4xl and found a clear case that worked with the holster from Spigen that held my Pixel 2xl. Now doing the same..finding a old Spigen holster that fit a Pixel 5 case.

At first I thought the holster lower prongs stuck out a little too much, but after using it a few days with the ultra hybrid case, I feel they make it easier to insert the phone. It's a secure and smooth phone insert and extract.

The case and holster arrived today and they fit and work great! I especially like that the phone releases from the holster just like the Seidio holsters I have used in the past. Thanks again for the suggestion!
