I've always used a holster with my phones, mainly because I carry so much junk in my pockets that I don't have room for a phone. With my current phone, a GNex, and previous OG Droid, I finally settled for the Seidio Surface holster. It would hold the phones even with TPU cases, the Seidio Extended battery on the GNex with TPU case, and finally now even the Zero Lemon battery. As often gets mentioned, however, the plastic clip seems to break on these holsters if you even look cross-eyed at them. I'm on my fourth one for my GNex, and I always keep a spare just in case. I think I'm keeping Seidio in business.
Part of my problem admittedly is that my car seats have high side bolsters, and if I forget to slide the holster toward the middle on my belt when I'm getting in the car, I will have have destroyed another clip on the Surface holster.
What are the holsters that others have had good luck with? I do like the the swivel clip as on the Seidios as opposed to just belt loops or clips, but that's just me.
Since the Note 3 will be similar to the Note 2 in dimensions except for height, do those coming from a Note 2 have any special favorites? I recognize these can't be use for the Note 3 because of the different dimensions, but hopefully the vendors with good Note 2 holsters will also make good Note 3 ones.
