I have gone through many holders for my phone over the years. So many others would break at the slightest difficulty or fail to hold the phone.This one is the best. It is well made, durable and protects the phone. The magnet is strong. The clip is metal, covered with leather and strong.Contrary to others opinions, its appearance is nice. The stitches are black, not white as in the picture. They are consistent and not loose. The leather is black and smooth. What else is there?
