How will the included holster hold up?

I have had my 6035 since it first came out and I have always kept it (and all my many past cell phones) in my pocket, so I have never used a holster. But I am considering it for the 7135.

My question is this:
Does it seem like our beloved 7135 will ever pop out of the included holster? Or that it will ever break? I would love to use the holster, but won't if there is any chance of this thing of beauty falling to the ground in a resonating thud.:angel

Views? Insight from those 7135 beta testers that I envy so much?

Grazie,

The included holster looks really sturdy and well designed to me! I guess a lot depends on how tightly the 7135 is held in at the top...

The included holster IS, in fact, QUITE sturdy ... holds the phone with no rattling.

HOWEVER, I do have one concern about it ...

... the way you insert the phone (with the Kyocera faceplate facing towards you) results in the smooth plastic "clip" at the top of the holster rubbing STRONGLY against the plate.

OVER TIME ... I don't know if all that rubbing will result in marring the surface.

If the holster is anything like my old Motorola StarTac holster it should work fine.

I use a holster with my 6035 now but find if hard to pull the phone out real fast.

I was quick on the draw with my old Motorola.

:cop

I had the same StarTAC with that holster... from what I remember it slides into the holster pretty loosely until it was just about all the way in. From what is being described it sounds like the 7135 holster is tight the whole way in.

My 6035 holster just about requires two hands. That will say something for dexterity after 32:p
