I just got a
Seidio Innocase and
Horizontal Leather Case
Here are some pictures I took. Some of them are a bit dark, sorry about that. I overestimated the natural lighting!
When I opened the box, I examined the Innocase. It felt light, but the interior is made of a hard plastic. It's quite interesting, because the exterior is a soft rubber material.
Installing the Innocase was simple. All I needed to do was make sure I didn't install it upside down! The parts just slide onto the phone. The bottom part of the case has VERY SMALL tabs [2 on each side] that grip between the keyboard. They are small enough that I couldn't picture them, and that they do not put stress on the phone hinge.
The case is pretty thin. The site says 1mm, and it doesn't make the phone much thicker at all. All the corners are covered [except for the stylus corner, but the case makes the stylus a bit recessed, so there won't be damage if it falls]
Once I had it installed, it felt solid. Its hard to describe how the case feels... It's soft, yet thephone feels secured.
The Seidio Holster also has an excelent build quality
The leather looks very sleek, and 'SEIDIO' is imprinted on the cover. The interior has the same leather that was on the outside. However, between the interior and exterior there seems to be a sturdy yet slightly flexible material.
One thing I did notice was that the holster is a tad large. This is probably due to the fact that Seidio designed it to fit with the Innocase on the phone. If you do not have the Innocase on the phone, it slides right in, but stays secured. Even though it isn't as tight as the crappy stock Sprint holster, the phone stays secured.
Length-wise, there is quite a bit of extra space in the case. It's not much but reducing every millimeter helps.

Overall, I think the Innocase is DEFINITELY worth the price, and the holster could come down in price a bit. The build quality of both products is excellent, and the appearance is no less than the quality. You can also get different colors for the innocase, so you can match your style.
