Treo Smartphone Experts SafeGuard Holster

Product Description

NOTE: This holster is designed only for a UN-Skinned or "naked" phone.

Smartphone Experts' engineers have designed the best Treo holster yet! The Treo securely snaps into the holster's rubber interior (the rubber reduces the chances of scratching most Treo during daily wear), and a large ratcheting swivel clip ensures a snug fit to your belt.

The Treo faces inward in the holster, to protect the screen and keyboard from scratches and dents.

Rubber feet and an extra large "clamp arm" makes it easy to place and remove your Treo in the holster with one hand. The backbone of the holster and clip are made of a high impact and high performance plastic, so you can confident your Treo will be secure.

The Smartphone Experts Holster is a perfect choice for most Treo.

Fast and easy access to all of your Treo features
Two materials - sturdy plastic backbone and rubber interior
Large, durable, ratcheting belt clip
Easy access to all features including headset jack, connector, volume control, and camera.

TC Review: Smartphone Experts SafeGuard Holster for Treo 750, 700p, 700w|wx, 680, 650, 600

Reviewed by Jay Gross

Nothing beats a holster for keeping your Treo ready to grab, and Smartphone Experts� SafeGuard fills that bill nicely. Its flexible rubber lining reduces the likelihood of scratches, the well designed latch isn�t likely to pop out the SD card unawares, and the screen stays well out of harm�s way.

Maybe not the best, but as close as you'll find......

User: Tom M, Jan 14, 2007

Pros: Rubber all over on the inside-no scratching!
Cons: The arm kinda blocks the silence sounds switch

I had a Seidio holster for my Treo 650, and it scratched the phone all over-at every point of contact. When I got my 700p, I did not want to repeat, but I love the functionality of a holster.
This is awesome! The entire interior is rubber, there is no chance of scratching. In fact, the bottom is all rubber (the part visible in the picture of the back of the Treo), so not only does it not scratch, it's not vulnerable to breaking if bumped against something while the Treo is out.
My only 2 concerns-and they are minor-are material around the headset jack and the location and width of the arm on top.
It's difficult to remove and replace the Treo into the holster with a wired headset plugged in, there is just a lot of material around it, which obviously is necessary due to it being all rubber.
The arm on the top is shifted in slightly-you can actually remove the stylus-and it partially blocks the silence sounds switch. But, since it's partly rubber, it moves easily.
Overlooking those 2 minor flaws, this is the best holster I've ever had!

NOT WELL MADE

User: David Pobereskin, Dec 8, 2007

Pros: Nice fit for the Palm Treo 700, Ruber protects phone
Cons: Poor Craftmenship

I, like some of the other raters, have found that the SD card get expelled when putting the phone in the holster. I also agree that the buttons get depressed. If you put the phone in the holster without first putting the device to sleep. iyt depresses the buttons and it starts to beep. Similarly, if the phone is in the holster and rings or otherwise wakes up the buttons get depressed.

Finally, the holster seperated from the clip while I was wealking. I got back to the car, no phone! Fortunately a Police Officer found it and was able to get it back to me I was not a happy camper.

Good for Some Time

Pros: Easy access
Cons: Turns volume on, card ejection, and breaking

I got this holster after the one at the Verizon store chipped off a little bit of my phone, rendering that holster useless. I got this one from this Web site because of a good review. Fast forward to about a year later (I believe), and the plastic insert that lets the holster swivel broke off. Then while examining how it broke, perhaps out of hilarity, the belt clip also broke in half.

Having the holster wasnt that bad despite the problems. It would turn the sound on and regularly cause me to eject the card, but overall it wasnt a horrible holster.

Not Long Lasting

User: Dan Moore, Sep 13, 2007

The holster served all my needs very well, but has a weak design. The spring loaded clip that holds the Treo in the holster broke after only 6 weeks of use. It could have happened much earlier but I am quite carful in the way I handle the phone. I cant justify buying another one of these until the clip is strengthened.

fatal design flaw

User: James Herlocker, Aug 22, 2008

Pros: lightweight
Cons: fatal flaw outweighs any positive features

Do not overlook all these reviews disclosing the SD card ejection issue. Somehow I did, and I regret it. I found my SD card out in the parking lot of my office building this morning after I noticed it was missing from my phone when I put it on as I was leaving home today. How fun is that...?
