4.0 out of 5 stars Functional, May 6, 2001
By 
"pkim@wesleyan.edu" (Katonah, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: USA Wireless Holster for Nokia 8260 Phones (Wireless Phone Accessory)
I have the AT&T 8260, and it fits fine in this holster (the Voicestream phone is actually smaller and slimmer, so those may not fit as well, but I'm not sure). This holster is probably comparable to the StarTac holster, although this clip swivels (which I have yet to reach a opinion on -- sometimes I like it, sometimes it's irritating).

It is definitely a good alternative to a leather case. The spring and clip on this one appears to be a little more robust than other 8260 holsters I've seen. The platic seems to be of higher quality than those I've seen as well. I'm not quite sure this is worth $..., but I've heard that the StarTac holster costs the same, and this seems to be of the same quality.

The holster leaves your phone face-out, so there is some chance of scratching the face if you're not careful, but I'm not too worried about that. Otherwise, I have no real qualms with this product.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not very durable, November 2, 2001
By 
Patrick McGarity (Hagerstown, MD United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: USA Wireless Holster for Nokia 8260 Phones (Wireless Phone Accessory)
I enjoyed this belt holster for it's style, price, and small footprint. Unfortunatly, the swivel base cracked after about two weeks of use. Anytime you snag it on a seatbelt, chair arm, or article of clothing, you run the risk of cracking the plastic. My father also had this problem with the exact same result. If you are extra careful while standing and sitting with the phone on your belt, you might not break the holster. If you are like me, however, the idea of a belt clip is so that I don't have to think about carrying the phone around all of the time. That is why they keep making these things so small, so we can just attach them to our body like a piece of jewelry. Anyway, I will end up getting something more durable in the future and I suggest you consider the problem in light of your personal phone carrying habits.

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible!, September 17, 2001
By 
Brynn Bennett (Washington DC, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: USA Wireless Holster for Nokia 8260 Phones (Wireless Phone Accessory)
This holster is TERRIBLE!

After using the holster for less than a week, the product had already scratched my phone. This product is made for the 8260/8800 or whatever it is, and since the 8800 series of nokia phones are a little smaller, so is the holster. I frequently had my phone knocked out of the holster because of the insecure fit, thus adding to the scratches, and yes...your face does get scratched, too.

All in all, this product is junk. Even the slightest activity above and beyond walking and your phone is liable to fall out. I had to get my phone replaced (thank God for Warranties!) as a result of this terrible product. I have since bought one of the Body Glove holsters to protect the phone as well as get a secure method to clip the phone onto my belt with out having to fear continued scratching or losing the phone!

"Final Thought" - spend the extra 2 or 3 dollars and get something that will protect your phone.
