The design is awesome, but the steel takes away a lot. Take out the steel buckle, and replace it with a leather buckle that you can just slip into the belt as you wear it. From the description, I did not know the product had a steel buckle. You should design this product to not be dependent on belt width, which the steel buckle does. This is a cool cell phone case. I bought it to replace an worn case - but which I liked because it was not bulky. The steel buckle is not only too bulky (and therefore protrudes a lot), it can slip off the belt.as it did recently and I dropped the cell phone, almost damaging it.
The plastic belt loop is impractical as well, large and cumbersome, not sleek or attractive at all. It is not a "custom fit" at all. NOT recommended at all. I have the KRZR k1m motorola phone, and this case is FAR too large for the phone, which practically engulfs it. there is at least 3/4 of an inch of room between the phone and the top of the case. It sets the phone case well away from your body, and seems ungainly.
I hope that isn't the situation now, as I begin my search again. The stitching is falling apart, the magnet is weak and doesn't line up, and the case sometimes seems like it was designed for a bigger phone. It broke after about 3 weeks of use, so I went back to this one. When I bought this and the vertical case, there weren't many cases to choose from for the KRZR. I'm starting to agree with the guy who said that Motorola makes bad cases so we'll break our phones and buy new ones. I bought this for my KRZR, but didn't like it, because it kept dropping my phone, so I got the vertical version of this case. The elastic and stitching is almost complete worn out after less then 2 months of use.
Pathetic. I don't know what Motorola is thinking shipping a thing like this. It has a tendency to then sag open and dump your expensive and shiny phone on the ground. Useless. The case really is twice as wide as it should be, so it doesn't hold the phone by friction. The magnet on the clasp is very weak and very difficult to locate in the only location where it will wort of lock, but if you catch it on anything, even brush it, then it's open again. Since there are so few decent solutions for this phone, none that I've found, I'm thinking of stitching velcro to this one to make it work.
Result is that the KRZR flops around loosely inside it. My search continues for something better, and it needs to be a whole lot better. I think two KRZR's could easily fit in it. Don't even think of snagging it on a door jam.
The magnetic snap is hard to latch- you must get it exactly on the snap's hole because of the looseness, and it also comes undone easily because the magnet is so weak. My old Nokia had a holster that if I snagged it on something, would nearly rip the belt off my pants rather than give way. The bubble pack was original Motorola and it did say it was exclusively for the KRZR. My Nokia always stayed put and safe. It is just two hard leather front and rear slabs connected by two thin elastic strips on the sides and two thin leather strips at the bottom. I ordered this case for my new KRZR from Amazon.
I had to double check, becaue I can't believe Motorola put out such a piece of flimsy junk. I can't understand how this is designed for the KRZR, since a phone twice as thick as the KRZR's bare half inch thickness could fit in it. Since the phone is so loose inside, if the latch comes loose, the phone WILL come flying out. Your KRZR is doomed riding in this trash. A Zero star would be a better choice. They must secretly want you to break your phone so you will have to buy another.
It is the most un-secure non-protective case I've ever had the displeasure to own.
