The case itself is as nice as it looks on the screen. However, the belt clip makes it practically unusable. Instead of being shaped like an upside down "J", with the short leg attached to the case and the belt fitting between the long leg and the case, it is shaped like an upside down "U" with the case attaching in the middle of one leg. The belt should go inside the "U", but usually gets caught between the case and the "U". Furthermore, the leather covering on the "U" is poorly done, leaving a flap at either end. On other cases, there is a metal covering. The flap gets in the way, making it impossible to fit it over the belt. Sorry I wasted $20 on this.

Okay, my husband has an HTC touch 2. The leather smells great and is a quality pouch. But....the magnet makes the phone go all whacky, it unlocks the device and flips through random screens, unless you remember to put the phone in backwards, then it is fine. Its real hard to get the phone out when it rings. He wont use it. he says he hates the case. it sits in the desk. kinda sucks because it looks real nice. I wish I would not have bought it. :(

PROS
This case looks nice. Leather quality is fine. Has worn well over several months without picking up defects in the leather.

Unlike the prior reviewer, I really don't think its hard to attach to the belt -- requires only slight concentration to align the clip. It fits snugly, and it has never spontaneously fallen off with my belt fastened. It seems a little less likely to slide off an unfastened belt than other ones I have owned in the past.


CONS
Not too many that I regard with much seriousness.
a. Don't expect it to be water-resistant as there are clearly holes in the sides.
b. When used with a TOUCH-screen phone, lifting the phone out of the snug holder requires paying some attention to where I grab. If I accidently touch the wrong part of the screen it can send an "ignore" signal and thus result in a missed call. I agree with the prior reviewer that it might be helpful to have a place to press on the underside which pops the phone upward out of the case and lets one see where they are touching on the screen more easily.


However, a Recommendation to the Manufacturer:

I would like to see a small thin pocket/pouch added somewhere, inside or out, that holds an extra battery.

This case has an excellent build quality in any way you might think, and it's like a glove for my Pro 2. The only thing it might improve is that it should have some kind of little hole in the bottom of the case, to push off the phone easily.

alright i had tmobile and i ordered like 5 of these through [...] put them on my bill it was bad anyway.and out of the five i would say two fit just right and three sucked so i would go to tmobile and try them out at the store becasue i will tell u its the best case ever but if it doesnt fit right u wont like it
