I bought this case after the disappointment of using the "Form Fit Case w/ Swivel Belt Clip" for a couple of months. I like how this case sits sideways. It may seem unnatural at first, but to the contrary holding it sideways fits the contour of a belt better than if the phone were straight up-and-down. The look of the case is fantastic, with a sleek high-quality black leather. The case sometimes brushes up against the buttons when the phone is ringing, causing me talk instead of checking the caller ID first... a minor annoyance. Overall though, this is a simple stylish holder that functions well.
