Summary: Minimalistic
Review: Basic and adequate to carry your V60 around. Cumbersome to remove phone from clip and does not offer any external protection. Save your money and opt for the Body Glove neoprene case with belt clip !!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Just a little FYI...
Review: Being a salesman of the V60, I'll let all of you in on a little secret about this phone and holster...THIS ISN'T A STARTAC, THEREFORE THE HOLSTER WON'T BE JUST LIKE THE STARTAC EITHER!! Want to know why it isn't like the Startacs? If you haven't noticed, the Startac holster was not very secure. That and the nice little pouch feature allowed for chunks of Corn Nuts and Doritos to collect in the phone.
With the V60's holster design, the phone is held snug with minimum clip plastic getting in the way. Yes, the phone is very snug, but here's another secret. It's because the clip is new! Give it time. It will loosen up a little. It's a lot like a baseball glove. It's stiff until you break it in.
As for the angle of the phone, I'll let you think about it a little. Hmm...why is it angled out a little instead of straight up and down? Figure it out yet? I'll give you a hint. It involves a little thing discoverd by a man with the last name of Newton. That's right! Gravity! By having the phone angled outward a little, the user simply needs to push the tab on top of the phone in, and the phone pops out and comfortable falls into the user's hand.
It's all pretty simple when you think about it folks. There's a rhyme and reason to everything. If you want to complain about anything with this holster, complain about the price. Oh wait, it comes free with the phone. Dang.

Summary: Very good design
Review: I didn't realize how good this Holster was untill I lost my V505 from a Holster made by Wireless Technologies. I had this holster for 3 years. My v60 never ever dropped from it.

Some people complained it's hard to get the phone out of it. I think it's because they just didn't figure out the right way yet. Once you get used to it, you can get your phone out with two fingers easily.

I found Holster is such type of item that it takes time to tell how good/bad it is.

Summary: A step backwards from the StarTac holster
Review: I find that the phone's angle away from the body when clipped onto a belt, is extreme. Under a sweater, it looks as though you have some sort of growth on your side. Also, it's difficult to remove the phone easily from the holster on a consistent basis. I remember my StarTac holster as being simple, verticle to the body, yet holding my phone securely. I'm very disappointed in this product and hope that Motorola will decide to offer another style for the V60i.

Summary: Bad
Review: I just got the v60i and really love the phone. The belt clip is another story. To get the phone in takes some doing, at least to get it in right! The two notches that you have to line up with are a real pain and can't be done quickly or with any way to know if "it's in" unless you look. And the "death grip" it has on the phone is amazing!

The whole process of getting the phone out of the holster is horrible. When you finally do get the clip to let go it almost always "snags" on the battery compartment button. I'm afraid it's going to rip it off!! It does make you wonder how they test these things!

I just purchased an extended battery with the bigger door. After reading around I'm very worried that it won't hold the phone with the extended battery. But luckily, I've found the answer to that it's part # OEM Carry Pouch with Clip - SYN8848.

Summary: Serviceable but needs work
Review: I really appreciate the reviews others took the time to write.

I absolutely love the Motorola V60, (even though I agree that the Menu System and documentation are not nearly as easy or intuitive as with a Nokia.)

The Belt Clip Holster is cumbersome. It required my engineering hat, (something I have had to learn how to wear... not a natural talent,) to figure out. Even so I feared it would release the phone, so I was glad to read of others confidence based on their StarTac experience.

I can appreciate that it is difficult to ergonomically design a carrying device for a flip phone. The current clip holder works, it is just too bulky and requires a lot of practice to smoothly release the phone from the clips. Still, I have to believe that some sort of holster or pouch is possible that is far more attractive and practical than what is currently offered.

I hope the design team at Motorola is working on it.

Summary: Good UNTIL...
Review: I really enjoyed this holster for the reassons that it did the job and came with the phone (read free). However its usless now. You see after five months of general use it broke. In hindsight I can see why it "fell apart" and predict that others will/have experence(d) the same. Untill then enjoy!

Summary: Piece of Junk
Review: I recently bought the V60c and it comes with this holster. The reality is that it is very difficult to remove the phone from the holster and to put it back into the holster. It is a shame because the phone is nice and it would be nice to have a way to easily take the phone out. The startac series had a nicer "holster.
