I don't like cases that you have to open and close..open and close just to see who's calling or texting. I got a skin and just applied the adhesive circle to my phone, slide it in the clip and then on my belt and I'm off. Inexpensive but effective. I like the extra mount for my car. It makes it easy to hang my phone in the car so when I get a call, it's at the right height so I can use the speaker on my phone and leave my hands on the wheel. This is my fourth year using this clip.
