Case that will fit Seidio Innocell Extended Battery

I've been looking for a case that will fit with the extended battery. Read a few forms about leather cases that attach to your belt, but nothing so far of an actual case that fits on the phone.

Searching for a case that will fit the extended battery under google is a bit confusing because there are so many terms that could be used: innocell case, extended battery..etc...etc.

Please post all known cases to fit the extended battery here. If there was, somewhere, a thread on this post a link. Thanks.

I used the one from my 700w. It needed a little stretching, but now works fine (even with a rubber protector that has a cutout for the extended battery).

Is that a case, or a leather holster type that attaches to your belt?

Cause I've seen those leather holsters and there isn't any room to keep the unit in the case with the USB cable plugged into it.Well it doesn't look like it anyway.

I'd rather keep it in the case and forget it. yeah know?

Well since not many people replied to my post I decided to get a Seidio horizontal leather case for 29.99.

Seemed like a rip off to me but it was genuine leather not imitation nor lambskin, and looked big enough for my extended battery.

Will keep an update how it goes with the new case.

I guess I was talking about a holster that attaches to a persons belt. It would be very easy to cut a small hole for the USB plug, if so desired. I got mine from a little booth in a shopping mall. I'm guessing I paid $10-$15 for it, but don't quote me on it. The case, if you want to call it that, is one of those soft rubber ones. I had to cut out part of the back where it sticks out for the big battery. I just used a pocket knife, and it kind of looks like I bought it that way. It still provides a fair amount of protection. I also had a hard plastic case, but couldn't make the cutout look very good, so threw that one out.

Good luck whith what you bought.

the Seidio case fits but its tight and its bulky. i feel like im batman with a utility belt with this thing on and it doesnt slide out easily.

But it fits!!!!

well after using the seidio case for one day all i can say is one word: bulky.

this feels like an ammunition holster a cop would wear. it gets in the way when i sit down and is slightly annoying when i put my hand in my jacket pocket (its 8 degrees here).

But on the bright side the magnet that buttons the flap works very well and very strong too so i dont have to push it into position, interior is very well insulated so no chance of damaging my cell phone, no sharp corners, there is a small hole on the bottom so i can use my fingers to push my phone up as well as there are holes so i can grab the phone from the sides, and the material used is very soft on the inside as well, and the case is made of geniune leather.

so in summary its quality, easy to grab your cellphone, protects it well, and can be used with the extended bat, but.....its bulky.
