I used this for 4 months and loved it. The love was shattered when trust was lost. While riding an escalator I brushed against the holster (I guess, as I didn’t feel any impact) and the clip disconnected from the case sending the holster and the blackberry down the escalator steps. I got a defective one (see pictures uploaded). Would you? Blackberry wasn’t affected, so this review deserves two starts, but since the Blackberry landed so close to the platform edge the product gets a single star. Are you a manufacturer or a seller? Does this product worth a better review or another chance? Prove me wrong send me another pair. Until then, this review stands, pictures show the defects, and I thank Web 2.0 for allowing me to influence the future quality of a product as buyers vote with their wallets.

“The case and functionality with the device are nice. The magnetic closure is effective and quick to use, and if you’ve set your device correctly, email will open automatically as it should when the Blackberry is removed from the case.
However, the belt clip is terrible. Even if you’re just a bit overweight, the top of the clip will jab you in the “love handles” section of your sides. The clip is extended in a way that makes no sense – for leverage when unclipping, I guess, and it’s terribly frustrating. Not to mention the fact that it gets snagged on things and will break. I’m on my second holster already.
The Blackberry Curve is a great device. But I’m not sure there’s a better clip/holster alternative for it. I wish there were – or that RIM would fix this holster clip.”
THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS GOING TO WRITE. So here it is ![]()

As have many of the others reviewed here my clip broke after 3 weeks so don’t waste you money on this one,

Brought as a replacement. Clip broke within one month. Returned to Amazon as defective and was charged for return shipping.

When you clip these kind of cases to your belt, it isn’t too long before it gets caught on something and breaks! Remember the old days of pagers, when you could carry them inside your pocket or on your belt? The free BlackBerry “calculator case” included with my phone was almost perfect… but it didn’t have a clip so when I placed the case in my front pocket, it fell to the bottom of my pocket and made it impossible to reach when the phone was ringing.
This optional holster is strong enough to hold the phone on its own, so the little magnetic flap is unnecessary and prohibits you from simply turning the case around and placing the whole thing inside your pocket. But with a pair of scissors, the only thing showing outside your clothing is the small plastic clip. Because of the officially-licensed “proximity sensor” built into this case, you simply slide the phone back in to the case in your pocket and it automatically locks the keys from accidentally speed dialing your boss. Just cut off that stupid front flap and this case is perfect for anyone with a little touch of modern style, unless you’re happy looking like some wannabe superhero with a utility belt.
