Horizontal holster case

I've been looking for a horizontal holster type case for the longest time already, and finally, this week I was able to buy one.

I prefer my P800 bare naked when using it, that's why I opted for a holster. Now, people dont ask me if that's a phone or am I just happy to see them. 😃

It's brand is Krusell, and it's attached via a belt-loop or by a detachable spring-clip. So I can use it with or without a belt, as long as I have my pants on. It has got a hole underneath, so its easy to push-up to retrieve, and the cover is held on by a magnetic button. The best part of it all is that it's sooooo cheap, it only cost me 10USD (or roughly 6.50GBP). The only similar horizontal holster case I know of, is the original SE kit (comes with other useless accessories) that's selling here for around US$40, and doesn't even come with a clip, just a hook-on that easily comes off and have your p800 take plunge (which incidentally happened to one of my friends).

Hey, I have this same problem. I can't find a decent holster for this. Does the holster you've found have a model number? Where did you get it from? Thanks.

well actually, I'm currently based in Singapore, and that time I bought it here. I was able to track down this particular model by sending an inquiry to the main Krussel web site LINK HERE

They replied and directed me to a local distributer, who fortunately carries the exact case that I had in mind, which fits my P800 just perfectly. Until now I'm still using the same case, I'm very satisfied with it. :icon14:

Here's the updated link for the specific model which I bought.
Horizontic Premium S-Wide

Good luck on your search. 😊

I bought a Krusell horizontal belt case, it was a VERY tight fit, the holes didn't seem to align with anything in particular and didn't match with the picture on the Krusell site, which shows a keyhole-shaped slot. I've returned it for a refund.

Hi there,

Maybe a little late for the problem, but it's working for P900 too.

For an excellent vertical case for P800 or P900 have a look here :

Look under Smartphone cases --> Sony Ericsson

It's like using the phone without case. Wholes are made where they need to be.
You can even buy those through E-bay. I bought one almost a month ago.
Just perfect !

They have horizontal cases too, based on the dimensions, quality perfect, but I don't known whether they are perfect or not.
