My first thought on seeing this: Since when?! I may hold out for the more form-fitted plastic shell holster similar to that of the 4/4S model. Has anyone gotten a hold of either of these yet?

Those are very nice looking. It's the first I've seen, but that's because I don't like to clip my phone to my belt. Instead I put my Mophie equipped iPhone 5 in my front pocket. I've had excellent service from the last three Juice Packs I've purchased. It's the solution that provides me with the battery power I need to get through the day.

When I'm not wearing a belt I actually use these sorts of belt clips on my front pocket, so that neither my phone nor case collects pocket lint. It also provides an easy carrying solution as well as easy access. I love my Mophie case but I don't like squeezing it into my pockets (I'm a fairly large guy).
 
I'd like to find a q10 style holster for my iphone. I'm probably gonna need that juicepack.

Any longer term comments re. this holster?

I have a Juice Pack Plus for my iPhone 5S, and it's going to get tough to always carry it in my pocket. I'm looking at this holster, but it got savaged in reviews on Amazon.com. Can anyone who has used this for a while post their thoughts/comments? How securely does it hold the phone, and is the clip to wide so it flops around on your belt? Is it well made?

If someone can compare this to the plain clip, that would be great. I wouldn't mind just using the belt clip, and it's probably more secure, but I would beat the heck out of the case over time.

Many thanks.
