Can you dismount the phone from the clip easily without having to slide it up? I want to be able to just snap it in and out.

No it doesn't snap in it slides in an out but I wouldnt recommend this case the prime series dual layer holster is the better choice

No, it just clips onto the phone. I haven't had any problems with it coming off.

Since the fit is snug, it's quite a pull. I wear my phone clip sidewards. This allows me with my right hand just to slide it out and slide it back. If it's vertical, (phone can be vertical or horizontal) I find it harder. The horizontal positioning of the phone is better since movement is more physiological. No need to move a clip. The fit is perfect for the phone.

My husband had no problem bolstering & retrieving his phone. However, clip will break if enough force is put on phone.

I just checked my case and the clip does not come off. I hope this helps you out.

no. the clip is very snug (it needs to be for balance). I had to pop mine out of the otter case, but it is pretty easy to do so.

Yes it is easy to take the phone out of the case. It is a big phone to begin with, better use when texting or emailing.

No...the phone has to be removed to open it, well at least in this type of clip.

I have not attached the belt clip. Based on the design I'm pretty sure u can easily remove the clip if you did attach it.

Hi Robert... if you're talking about taking it out of the holster then - apply pressure at the bottom of the phone and push up (sort of like old BlackBerry cases). If you're talking about taking off the base cover - I haven't found a trick, but I was able work the edges slowly and take it off. I don't believe the manufacturer meant the bade to be separated often (so please be careful not to chip the edge if you wish to reattach). If you find a better way, please share :) Thanks

yes, the clip can come off. In fact, you have to remove the clip to charge the device. The clip is quite sturdy and grips well. One other thing to note is that the cover saved my IPod one day when I forgot it was clipped and I went to use the rest room and my IPod fell into the toilet. I literally had one drop of water that got through the case and on my device.

No, the clip doesn't have a hook that will keep the case from being pulled up if it gets caught on something. It's a tight fit, though. It hasn't come off my belt yet, but I don't do anything athletic while I'm wearing it.

Actually it's not so hard to pop it out, but it's not instantaneous.. takes about 2 seconds. I've used several of these snug-snap in cases, and all you need to do is take out one of your credit cards and use it as an aid to prying the phone out easily and safely. Grab a credit card, use any of its rounded edges -- as though it were a screwdriver tip --- push down the credit card corner into the lower-right-hand-rounded corner of the plastic-holder of the phone, and apply a slight clockwise-twist of the credit card at the same time you are pressing downward. It is far far easier than it SOUNDS with those written instructions! After trying and doing this a few times, it becomes second nature. And when you're done with the phone in the dock, you pop it back into the casing. I have never ever in 2+ years had any problem, no plastic cracking, no loosening of the snugness. It just keeps working as described. Hope that helps someone. :)

You can take the belt clip off of the case...but you are left with the round knob that attaches it to the case.You cannot leave the belt clip on, and take the case off.

Yup.. But you would have to use two hands.. Open the clip wide with one hand and then secure phone:. Taking it out would be one handed.. Just hold and twist out.

My daughter tells me that yes, it's absolutely removable, she uses hers without the clip.Hope that helps a little! :)

It is a plastic clip with a "hook" shape at the bottom. It will not come off; it's a bit of a pain to get off when you want to. I understand your concern. Though I've only had this case for a short time, I used a similar NiteIze case with my last phone for years and never even close to coming off at the wrong time. I'll try to post a picture of just the clip.
