I like the way this case looks and feels, and the belt-clip is very good. But it may not be an "official" Blackberry product, becasue it doesn't seem to put the 8700 into sleep mode properly. The screen goes off when you put it in, but my batteries were dying after 10-20 hours under regular use, whereas with my old belt clip (the hard plastic one which comes with the 8700), my batteries would last for 3 or 4 days. That was really inconvenient, so I had to go get another "official" Blackberry hard-plastic case, which I don't like the look of as much.

I'm giving 2 stars to this case for doing simply what I needed it to do - carry my blackberry and limit scratches to the unit. The seams on my case have already begun to come undone and I'm not quite sure if this case functions like a a 'true' blackberry case - placing the unit into standby (in holster) and waking it up when I pull it out. It doesnt happen that way the majority of the time. This is a great value for those that are just looking for a carrying case - but not so much that want it all.

I ordered this holster after my company-supplied plastic holster broke. Even though the company replaced the plastic one, I've put it aside in favor of this leather case, which looks good, feels good, and does a great job of holding my Blackberry 8700c where it belongs: on my belt. Considering the price, I couldn't be happier, since I probably would have happily have spent double the money for this quality.

I am true 'road warrior'- on and off planes, in and out of rental cars every week. So, I need equipment I can count on to perform and protect the tools I rely upon on the road to do my job. I wanted a professional looking case that would protect and securely hold my Blackberry on my belt and I have found it in this case! It holds it securely (good clip); the flap holds it snuggly but it is easy to lift and remove it when I need to answer a call or view an email. I like the leather stitching as it looks professional when you wear a suit. It was delivered actually early and the picture represented the product exactly. I would not hesitate to order another product from this vendor based on this experience.

Soft leather, attractive look, and very easy to use. Over-the-top strap easily secures blackberry in place. Blackberry can easily be slid in and out of the holster. I purchased this with my brand new blackberry (8703e) and have not observed a single scuff or scratch on the device after numerous times sliding the phone in and out of the holster.

The only potential negative is the plastic belt clip starts to dig into the side of your abdomen if worn for extended periods of time.

I would definately recommend this item.

I really liked this case, higher quality leather than I expected. So nice in fact, my dog decided it was a better chew toy than phone case. Good thing I had insurance on the phone.

Normally I am a fan of RIM products, but this case was average and the clip on the back broke in less than a year of use.

This is a new OEM case for the Blackberry offered at much below walk-in store cost. Shipping time, fees, and serviceability were excellent. Highly recommend!

I bought this for myself, wanted something that was functional yet upscale. The workmanship is excellent and the protection it offers is great for type of case it is. You can store the phone in either direction and the sensor plate works fine. The best feature I liked, was the clip assembly. It rotates 90 degrees either way and is very strong. This case should have been the default case that comes with the phone, not the plastic framed one from RIM. You can't go wrong, great for dress-up or work.

This blackberry holster was exactly as advertised. It was a good value, and arrived within the expected time frame.
