So what was the consensus on which holsters work with the cruzerlite and the Diztronic? I have the Diz and would like to grab a holster to use with it. Verizon owes me a case. Do they carry any holsters or cases with holsters that will work with the Diz or the Cruzer? It seems like somebody mentioned that Verizon carried a holster that works. Thanks for the help guys! Loving My Nexus!!!

I posted just a few posts up about this. The Ditztronic will work with the Seidio Surface holster. It will also work with the Seidio Active holster but the fit is less snug. If you are buying the active case, you could double up the holster with the Ditztronic case with no worry, but if you are just getting the holster then go with the Surface holster as the fit is almost perfect.

I have the active holster and the cruzer lite fits but has a little wiggle room. I also have the Verizon holster & shell combo which the cruzer lite fits the holster perfectly. I am using the extended battery & door. I do not have the diztronic case so I can't say in regards to that case.

Hey guys, Ive been using a few different cases for my gnex. Bu I have yet to find one that REALLY protected it without too much bulk and looked nice.

I think I found one. Its the Duo Shield by Beyond Cell. First off, its cheap...for 15 bucks you get a simple "polycarb" (More like "meh" plastic) shell and a silicone cover to protect the shell. For 15 bucks, it works and works pretty well. The silicone picks up a little lint and needs adjusting every once in a while when taking it out of your pocket. That and the simple fact that you need a thin micro USB housing connector make this case just short of perfection. Its not the best out there, but its looks nice(Lots of colors to choose from) and protects the phone real well even if its a little bulky. But again, for 15 bucks shipped from amazon, its hard to beat!!

*Another complaint is that it doesnt dock well in my Fidelio dock. The Micro USB connector is a HAIR to short. Thats my biggest beef with the case*

I picked up a Cruzer Lite from Amazon and couldn't be happier with it. It's well made, looks great and covers less of the phone's face than the Seidio Surface it replaced. The Surface was pushing up my screen protector. The Cruzer Lite has room to spare. No worries though, there's no chance of the phone coming out of the case accidentally.

The Cruzer Lite fits the extended battery/cover just fine. All the cutouts line up perfectly. I had to put it on and take it off a couple of times before I got it to fit just right. The best method for me was to start at the bottom, move up along both sides simultaneously and then pop the top in last.

I can confirm that it works great with the Seidio Surface holster, like they were made for each other.

Thanks to Cruzer Lite for the case and crankerchick for posting that it worked with the holster. That bit of info was what I needed to hear to make the purchase.

Does the CruzerLite provide good protection? Or is it just a gel skin thing that just makes your phone look good...?

Haven't dropped my phone with the Androifified Cruzer Lite from very high up, however, the case feels very solid on the phone. It's easily the best case I have ever owned for any phone.
