Overall, the Seidio Cradle Holster seems well made and performs as advertised. The PROS and CONS:
PROS:
+ Cradle / Clip design is very sturdy with the T650 well secured when holstered. Although you must use the opposite hand to remove the T650 from the Holster....I used the same side hand with the ProClip.
+ Swivel mechanism is very nice. I can adjust to a number of differant angle settings. I adjusted swivel position to an angel making it easiest to remove T650 from holster
+ T650 side/top buttons, SD Card, and bottom headphone and sync/charge ports are accessible.
CONS:
- Holster does not seem as tight to belt/waist compared to ProClip. Probably due to requirements of swivel mechanism
- Front of T650 fits very tightly against holster. There is a velvet type liner on the holster interior to prevent any scratches to the T650. Anyway...the fit is so close that when removing the T650 for an incoming call....buttons are pressed unintentionally. So, I have to use a utility like TREOGUARD to prevent these button presses from affecting incoming calls.
- Although the bottom headphone port is accessible when holstered, removing the phone with a headphone adapter inserted is impossible.
Bottomline....although the Seidio Holster is a good solution....I'm going to have to take a look at the ProClip version when available.
