No Holster Provided!!!1
I ordered this product expecting to receive the case and holster. Please note that the title is misleading. You get the case only, no holster. I have contacted the seller to request a refund including shipping charges.

Had to buy something...1
I bought my iPhone on the day it was released. Naturally i wanted a case to protect the phone so I didn't waste 600.00 after I dropped it and trashed the darn thing. Also, I noticed that the iPhone is very slick without a case and I needed something to prevent slippage. I bough this case and it worked "OK" until one of the sides started to loosen. I didn't think too much about it until one day when I was outside working around my car and the clip caught something and it rolled over. Nothing huge to worry about except the case doesn't have a top strap holding the phone in. Well, it fell out and landed on the concrete driveway. Well that was the end of that case, I immediately when to the apple store and bought the incase version which has a top strap holding the phone in, even if it's upside down. Now I just need to find a different color one for my wife since we get our phones mixed up now.

yet another poorly designed product....1
I liked the way this product looks:

all black
leather
professional looking
doesnt obscure any of the iPhone screen

HOWEVER, a few months into owning one of these, one sees the fatal flaw: the top side of the product has only very thin PLASTIC "frame". This broke on both the left and the right, and the leather is now folded and scrunched where the internal break occured (again both breaks are on top and are left and right sides).

How disappointing ! I expected this product to last much longer - the internal frame needs to be made out of metal. I wouldnt care if that made it heavier or more expensive.

Now Im back in the market looking for another case for my iPhone... I give this product a overall rating because of the way the frame was made out of fragile / thin plastic and broke so easily in two.
