I got this at SF Planet for $13+shipping. It is well-made. The Athena is a snug fit width-wise but the sides are elastic. The case looks very professional and like it is made for the Athena. My only complaints are it could be a little wider and I would prefer a magnetic closure instead of Velcro.
Here are some pics:

So you have to remove from the case to use?

Yes, unless you have x-ray vision
I wish someone would make a belt clip case with holes for the screen and buttons so we could use the Athena without taking it out. The screen could face outward (away from the body) and be protected with a flip cover.
I filled out the form on Vaja's web site with this suggestion. They should make an Athena case which has a flip cover like their iPhone cases.
I carry my device bare without keyboard, and this looks like an excellent design. The price looks good too.
It looks just a little little too tight. Is it easy to put the unit in and out? I also prefer to leave the pouch hanging on my waist while the unit is removed for use. The current design seems to be such that the whole pouch with the device comes off the waist.
Is there any option to leave the secured on the waist when the device is removed? I think it is a hassle, not knowing what to do and where to place the empty pouch when the device is being used.
Search ebay for "HTC X7500 leather" and/or "HTC X7501 Leather".
There's plenty of great cases.
looks nice, but no belt clip:
http://cgi.ebay.com/FITFOR-HTC-ADVA...ryZ15036QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
This one has belt clip:
http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Genuine-Lea...ryZ15036QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
Many people here have had experience with the 2nd case you list. The clip breaks in 1-2 days, and on mine the post (that the clip attaches to) came unglued on the 3rd day. If I hadn't noticed it before I wore it again, the whole thing would have dropped to the ground as the clip & post stayed on my belt. Mine went right in the trash because trying to get a refund would have eaten up the refund since they require that you send the case back. If I got a replacement case I would have immediately sold it (not trusting to use it anymore), costing money to list it and I probably would have had to undercut the other cases listed to ensure a sale, costing money again...
Do not buy it! Many others here will agree. You'll save money by buying a decent (but more expensive) case first, that will last you for years. Forget about the cheap ebay cases.
How do you guys keep the buttons from getting pressed in the tight cases?
I have the screen/lock on but after a call somes in the buttons still get pressed.
any ideas?

The case could be a little wider but it is elastic on the sides and expands to fit. I put my X7501 in one corner first (slightly diagonally) and push it to one side to get the other corner started. Once both corners are in it is not difficult to push all the way in. There is plenty of room to grasp the top corners of the unit to pull it out.
The pouch stays on my waist (attached to belt) when I am using the unit. I have to squeeze the belt clip to take the pouch off clip and all or push down on the release button on the clip to take the pouch off but leave the clip on my belt.
This is not a "quick draw" case. One does have to be deliberate putting the Athena in. Taking it out is easier, especially when the case stays on the belt.
Also, the corners of the Athena are not protected if the case is dropped with the Athena inside. I look at this case as a good balance between cost and functionality. My quest for the "perfect" case continues...
Yes, indeed there is no pouch that meets my requirements yet.
Another of my requirement is that when I sir down with the pouch on my front hip, it should not cause discomfort to my body. This means it can't be made of hard leather, and the belt loop should be made of elastic material.
Got it.
Pro:
- excellent quality;
- fits the Athena almost to the millimeter;
- holds miniSD cards quite nicely;
- belt-clip much better, IMHO, than previous "rotary" ones. Besides, it can be removed without having the pod-thing it attaches to sticking out and taking up room for nothing.
Cons:
- big and bulky;
- has to be "worked" a bit to close once the Athena's inside. Now ok but after about two-weeks of "massaging";
All in all a great "long-trip" type case IMHO, but no good for day to day use, especially if you don't care about the keyboard all that much.
Krusell 75134 not available any longer?
Toyfreak,
Thanks for posting. I like the case, but the problem is that Krusell does not make it any longer. Even their web site does not list the 75134 model. Do you remember for what device it was originally listed. Like IPAQ model XX or so? Then I could try to find a similar Krusell model. I like the tight fit. Searched a lot and even went to a couple stores, I find them all too bulky.
Thanks a lot.

Krusell discontinued the 75134 a long time ago but SF Planet had some left when I bought mine. Try the link in post #1 of this thread and see if they still have them.
EDIT: I just tried the link and the page is gone... I'm still looking for the perfect case and I will share any finds I make. It might be worth a call anyway.
toyfreak,
Thanks for checking. SFplanet did not have it any longer on their web but I will give them a call to find out what other case might have a similar size. Would it be too much to ask if you can take the inside measurements of the case and post it?
Thanks

Apx. 130x88x28mm inside but the elastic on the sides allows it to expand to fit the width of the Athena (see pictures in first post)
toyfreak,
Thank you very much. With the measurements I can continue my hunt. I will post any findings under Athena accessories.
You need search no farther than http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=351
This is the only case I know of designed for the Advantage that has a secure belt clip. There is another case available there, Series 270, that is slightly smaller to hold the device without the HTC case on it.
As far as I am concerned, there is nothing else available to match it.

This doesn't look near as nice as the Nutshell case(if you're not familair, read in this forum, there's a thread somewhere with links). The clip on the nutshell case is pretty much immune to wearing out. Downside is it can cost from $60 to over $100 and can take up to 2 weeks to ship. Worth every penny and minute in my book.

Seems like a Seidio case? Any thoughts of you early shoppers?
EDIT: Added pics I took
EDIT: It is a Seidio case as written on the bottom of the packaging. Looks like a Seidio Innocase Surface combo with Spring-Clip Holster.
I didn't see any accessories at the BB I went too, but then again, I didn't search for it well either.

Works fine for me.
I saw it, and thought it was way too cheap looking. Plus I hate cases with belt clip. I'll wait for a nice case to hit the market. I'm sure it won't take long.
I bought it in store, I love it. This is exactly the Seidio Case. The belt clip is reverse, the phone goes in reverse (screen in).
i almost bought it. gonna buy it after work lol
just got my nexus S and the bestbuy mobile i went too said they didnt have it in stock/
I got it and besides being a tiny bit flimsier than my deodorant case it the same. That and it's a front and back snap case versus' the sliding one on the nexus one.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
seidio makes Platinum cases (look at bottom of packaging)
I also picked up the Platinum Case for my Nexus S but am thinking of returning it within the return policy period should a better case become available.
Doesn't add a lot of bulk to the phone and the holster ain't that bad either. The holster + case ain't as bulky as my Nexus One with the Otterbox Defender.
Can someone take a couple nice pics, front and back on the S, front and back just the case, please?
I have it also and I will be replacing it with something else as soon as I can find something.
To me it feels loose around the phone and slippery in the hand.

The more I look at it the more I can tell it's an overpriced POS. ZAGG has full body shields for order on their site maybe i'll just do that and go naked/sheild. This BB one is going back.
BestBuy charged me and put it in my bag with the phone without me even asking. Had to raise a stink to get it refunded too. Looked like a crappy case that they always try and pawn off on new purchasers
I repeat. Its made by seidio. Its the same you would pay $40-50 for direct from seidio.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
I like Seidio's where they're in 2 halves (top half/bottom half) and it slides onto the phone, and there's felt in the inside of the case, this does not.
The phone sorta bangs around in there, I inserted a piece of paper, now it's tight.
Still a deal for $34, with the price Seidio sells them normally (with belt clip).
I bought it just to get me by until a real case comes out. It doesn't fit tight and feels real cheap.
I need to make a decision on which one to get. I really want to figure a way out on putting a belt clip on one of these, but not sure how to or what clip would work. It seems the Noreve was offered with a belt clip which was later no longer issued as it was breaking due to the weight of the case and streak in it. If anyone has one of these and worked out a way, please let me know. Thanks:
Noreve
Tuff-Luv
I have a Tuff Luv case, reviewed on here a while back, great piece of kit and very well made but no belt clip. To be honest I wouldn't trust my streak to a belt clip no matter who made it.

Hi,
from what I have read on the forum and the net..
I can say, carrying it on a Belt (clipped) may not be the best idea.
It either goes well in your deep(er) pant pocket, or in your backpack!
from the choice, the Noreve seems much more classy than the later one.
My 2 cents!
care,
Sony
I agree. The device is to big to be trusting it to some cheap plastic belt clip. even tho I ordered the defender by otter box I know for a fact ill never use the belt clip.
The noreve looks better..plus there is a stand on the back , bit more functional
Thanks all for the input. I am surprised that many have stated that a belt clip is not desired. I must say, I have been carrying it around with the cloth pouch that came with it for the last few weeks and I really don't think I would trust not having it on my belt. This may be because I have always had a leather flip type case for all my previous phones for close to 15+ years.
The other thing is that I don't think I would trust to keep it in jeans pocket and other than work, I don't carry any sort of bag with me, so I need something that does not consume one hand.
But this is interesting feedback. I was hoping to get something more like this and not some adhesive thing. Although, they seem to only be selling a minimum quantity of 1500.
Also, Noreve seems to have this clip which I don't know if it was the one they offered before, but it looks like it is a new design. I will need to contact them to see if their streak case has the place to screw in the part that slides into the clip. But, the one with the rivets and backing plate does look a whole lot more secure.
I ordered one of these with belt clip number 01 (scroll down to look at options). They will custom make them to your dimensions if you want to put it in the case with a cover on it. I have not received mine yet, but reviews elsewhere were very good. They offer other configurations. Right now they have no listings because of the Chinese New year.
Well, it looks like the Noreve case + clip + shipping will cost USD $103. Probably twice as much as I was looking at paying.
I guess I'll be back to looking at the Otter Defender or the Tuff-Luv if I can modify it. So strange that most nice accessories for this phone is only available across the pond.

Yes, I had first look into this. The issue I have with this other than waiting for their New Year to complete is that I am afraid of dropping the streak after taking it out of the case. With the two I was looking at and also the defender, at least they are made to stay in a case and benefit from some protection.
I don't know anymore, it is becoming frustrating. With all these price points and pros and cons, it is hard to just try them all by ordering and no place to go an try them without purchasing.

I ordered the easecase large enough so that I can leave the Otterbox Impact case on the phone and carry it in the leather case. My thinking was that I have a carry case and I still have protection when I remove it.
The best way to carry/manage using the Streak as an every day device is still evolving for me. I have spent at least 1/2 the cost of the phone on accessories.

hmmm.....this is very interesting.....I know when I had my iPhone, I got this and then put it into a leather belt case, so this may actually be like the same thing. I would probably go for the commuter case however as I read the silicon is a bit different from the Impact and Defender in that it is less susceptible to lint etc.
Thanks for the idea. The cost will run it up there again to approx $70-80 and I'll have to wait about 2-3 weeks for the easecase part
2devnull,
I don't believe that there are any good inexpensive ways to carry the Streak around and protect it. I have seen reports of some people using a Nintendo DS carrying case. I looked at that and just didn't want to go that way.
What about this one?
Just found this one on Amazon
http://www.amazon.com/Zing-571-221-MPEBK1-Medium-Electronic/dp/B000E6S3TK/ref=sr_1_56?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1296433970&sr=1-56
Well, I think I'm going the Otterbox Commuter + Easecase route unless something changes by the time Easecase returns.
I too am looking for a belt leather case for my Streak as I don't like caring the device in my pocket too much. I did contact
I contacted Noreve regarding their CLIP and Case combo but here is what I got!
Is the Dell Streak case compatible with the belt clip?
Do you have a case for Dell Streak that can be clipped to a belt?
Dear Rafal,
No I am sorry.
Too heavy.
My best regards,

A lot of money for something that does not close and you risk taking out an unprotected Streak and dropping it. A little modification and internal size would be ideal so that you can put a protected Streak (with Impact or Commuter or even jelly) inside it.

The Monaco case is only useful if you use your phone with no cover/case. I had one for one day. I got it in a batch if stuff I bought and sold it the next day. It does look well made and suits someone who carries the Streak naked. It would be great for someone who carries the Streak in a purse or backpack a lot.
I have the Otterbox Defender on my phone and bought a case from eBay seller easecase. They will customize the cases to your dimensions. I will get some pics up of my easecase soon.
I offered the Monaco as a suggestion because everyone uses their phone differently and if you like going light and sleek it would be a good fit.
I stated before that I have not found any good cheap options. I got my Defender for no cost, but had to buy a group of accessories and then sell what I did not want to do that. I have more time than money so that method worked for me.
Agreed, if a purse or bag or someone who is comfortable with a naked Streak, it would be ideal - however I think I read that it does not close correctly.

The one that I had was a perfect fit for the phone with no case. The openings were aligned properly for the headphone and charging ports. If I were carrying my Streak with no other case/cover on it I would have kept it.
The Monaco case is such a good fit that even a TPU case makes the phone too big.
hey guys so i am loooking for a otterbox like case for example i want a hardcare that can with stand hard fall as i drive from a forklift and work allows me to have headphones in only one so i can hear people yell at me when i run **** over lol, but seriouly i am looking for something like the otterbox with a belt or clip holster (easy access) and access to headphone jack as well whitch the otterbox failed miserably at, i found a few hower they didn't make it for the note only the s3 seems like this phone is lacking cases in this design as well so any and all help would be greatly appreciated as i ran into a dead end.
what's the problem with the otterbox?
the headphone jack is perfectly accessible for me.
Look into Seidio CONVERT Combo, check out main review link in my signature. You get SURFACE for light use and CONVERT shell on top of it for extra protection and one of the best belt clips with lockable latch. Plus, you will get a kick stand, a soft plug/cover for headphone, micro-usb, and camera port (no strain on your cables like Otter), and when you pair up with VITREO tempered glass screen protector - it's ultimate!!! And like a said, at work use the full CONVERT suit. When you get home, strip out CONVERT layer and you got a slim SURFACE protection layer. Based on your requirement, it's the most flexible solution.

Keep in mind, clip is removable and replaceable. Plus I remember Seidio mentioned about bike mount and car mount prototypes that clip right on to a holster when clip is removed.
I will use no other belt clip other than seidio. I've been sold on them for my last 3 phones. My job can be a bit rough on belt clips and theirs has always held up.

Oh, no, that clip is a junk. Don't even bother. The case is bulky and will help your N2 survive a nuclear attack, but belt clip is a joke. Survivor case was designed by Griffin for S3 and this N2 version was unofficially scaled up by HK manufacturers for a bigger N2 design. If belt clip is your priority, this case is not for you.

How about looking into an alternative of belt clip pouches? One of my other review threads is up now at the top of the forum with a discussion. That vertical pouch is actually not bad since it's easy to get phone in'n'out with a velcro flap, you can keep it on a belt clip to take it out, or belt loop to keep it permanently, and its vertical and secure. Works with any slim to bulk cases. The ultimate solution would be to have zerolemon rugged case that will support belt clip as well - would be the best of every world to have endurance and protection to the Nth degree. But the only info they released so far is that rugged case will accommodate original slim, double width, or triple-capacity ZL battery, while we are not sure if it will have kickstand or holster yet. A couple more weeks of waiting.

what would be perfect is a leather pouch or whatever with a built in wallet that would be the best case ever been looking but no luck yet...hoping to find something
I am a big fan of the Seidio Surface cases and clips. I have been using them since my Blackberry days. I got the ringke case and am satisfied with it for now, but I haven't been able to find any clip/case set even remotely similar to the Seidio, hard and slim case that spring-snaps into a belt clip case. Anyone have any ideas?
I'm a fan of holsters too... but it's almost 2016 and, apparently, they are not "cool" anymore...
Wait for Seidio. I've used their cases & holsters for years and nothing else I've tried compares.
I'm in the same boat, holster cases are what I use but there's not much of a selection yet, hopefully we'll see some more manufacturers produce some, for now I'll just have to settle for whatever I can find on Amazon.
Supcase has one for their more "durable" case
I usually use a holster with no case. I received a response from Seidio and they are not planning making one for the 5x!

I was searching for a belt clip hostler, and the only ones for the 5x are rugged one. Has anyone seen a simple one like this http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=181716459068

I'm looking for the same thing but unfortunately I had to settle for one of the more rugged ones, hopefully someone will be releasing something soon.
Same problem here. I have a ADOPTED Protective Case and was looking for a holster type case also

Hello,
Products for this device are currently under development.
They are expected to be available by Mid December.
Regards,
Seidio Customer Service
I like a holster without a case as well. Haven't come across anything, but sent a request to Seidio as well. We'll see!
Got this case from Amazon, my Adopted case fits in it fine

Now shipping!
looks good may get it I keep the phone. Will have to wait and see if they fix the 6.01 problems
Delivered today. They ruined it! It now has a rubber inner skin underneath the hard shell which makes it twice as thick!

It is a little thick, but what were you expecting? The description said that's what it was and usually the 2 piece cases aren't thin. I hadn't used the previous versions so I guess I'm not sure how they were built before.
I got one too and am fine with it, but I also normally use two layer cases so that's why I got it. All of the cut outs are good, it has a flat back while keeping camera off of the surface and it clips around the phone well enough that I can't just push the phone out of the case. It would be a little nicer if the buttons weren't set in as much as they are but it's not a huge deal to me.

That sucks. I got the ebay one for the time being, it's one layer, fairly thin.
