Thanks, Chip, I ordered the item, on the American Amazon site it was listet at $7.97 + $3.97 shipping. Unfortunately the item does not seem to be listed in Canada, but I was able to order it except the shipping to Canada went up to about $11. I know it’s more than the item itself, but this does sound pretty good and even for just under $20 US I decided to still give it a try. Fortunately I sell carabiners at my store and I have all sorts of them kicking around.
Take care, Sieghard From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Chip Orange Sent: Tuesday, March 15, 2016 4:58 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Looking for info on the iPhone 6s plus, and a good protective case for it. Hi Sieghard, First, it’s black nylon canvas, not leather as I said. It has a leather-like feel to it to me. It has four different ways to secure it to you: The belt clip holds it vertically (and does not swivol as yours does), One strap (under the belt clip) provides a way to pass your belt through it so it is hanging vertically from your belt, A second different strap allows you to pass a belt through so it hangs horizontally from your belt, And the d-ring (they call it a carabiner), which is removable if you don’t like it, secures to a swivol ring which naturally just lets it hang vertically, although you can rotate it to be horizontal when you sit down. The Amazon link is: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NKA4NQY?psc=1 <http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NKA4NQY?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s01> &redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s01 The second strap which holds it horizontally onto a belt is very large, and I use it to hold the earbuds which came with the Iphone inside of the pocket that this strap naturally forms; it’s tight enough the earbuds stay securely in place, and while I try to carry my bluetooth device with me and keep it charged, I’m glad to have them as a backup should I forget something. I believe it’s just under $12, and like you, the carabiner was the thing which attracted me to it; I do wish the belt clip swivoled though (that’s just nice), but I used the carabiner because it gives such freedom of movement to the holster as I sit, and it holds it more in front of me (when secured onto the front belt loop) which makes sitting less difficult in tight chairs. You can buy these carabiners in packs of two for a couple of dollars (I just bought some at a big box hardware store) if your holster has any sort of small ring you could pass it through.

Hi Chip, I’d like the name/model and also I’d like to know if it’s a vertical or horizontal holster. I bought one called “Gorilla Grip” which is a very solid leather holster with a very good swivel belt clip, but it’s meant to hold the 6S Plus horizontally and while you can turn it into the vertical position, then the flap opens forwards and it’s just not ideal. This particular belt clip won’t come off a belt since it has a bit of a hook at the end so it’s very secure, but I like the idea of the D-ring as well.

I bought a separate holster for the times when I wanted a belt clip, so when I did not want one (when it was going into a pocket which could hold it), I didn’t have a belt clip as well. The holster I found also has a snap d-ring so you can snap it onto a belt loop, which I prefer to use of the belt clip, because something this large can accidentally pull off of a belt when you sit down. I believe the holster is leather, and if anyone is interested, you can write to me and I’ll get the name and a link to it.

My biggest issue, and this may have changed with the later model of the griffin survivor cases is that when you put them in The clip, axis to the charging cord is completely blocked. I liked the OtterBox defender cases as well, but I've heard that the model for the 6S and 6S plus have quality issues. If you want a case with the belt clip, where the screen can face out, you may want to take a look at this. I'm not sure if they have it in the plus size, but it's worth looking. iPhone 6S (2015 Release) BallisticSHIELD Armor Slim Case & Belt Clip - Blue (Quick-release holster design) [Encased Lifetime Guarantee] Thanks, Ari On Mar 11, 2016, at 12:04 PM, MamaPeach <mamape...@charter.net <mailto:mamape...@charter.net> > wrote: The otterbox defender cases are great but there is also the Griffin Survivor cases that are very well constructed.

Hi. I’ve been a happy iPhone user since May 2009. I’ve gone from a 3gs to 4, to 5c, and finally to a 6s plus. Each phone has been a little different, but I’ve learned about them. I’m looking for information on the 6s plus, in order to use it more effectively. Anybody know of a good resource to learn about it? Also, I’m looking for a good protective case for my new iPhone. I’ve been a happy user of the Otterbox Defender case, and I’m leaning toward that one. If anybody knows of a better case, I’d be interested. Thanks in advance for any information. Have a blessed day.
