The Horizontic Plus is my third Krusell case and probably my last. This is a shame. Krusell makes wonderful high quality leather cases but all of the cases which use the Multidapt mount have a weakness in the plastic Multidapt bracket which is riveted to the back of the case. The bracket has very thin plastic flanges which hold the removable plastic round swivel pin in place. When any kind of side torque is applied to the case (i.e. having a belt hung case catch a car seat while getting into a car) the plastic flanges on the back of the case snap off. This destroys the case because the bracket is not removable.

It is ironic that Krusell sells heavy duty steel belt holders and steel swivel pins because they attach to a Multidapt mounting bracket made of plastic less than 1/16" thick.

I loved this case and the other 2 before it. Unfortunately all 3 failed in the same way. If Krusell changed the bracket to metal, this would fix the problem and I would return as a customer.

There are a few cases rated for Nokia N-95. I checked three of them, one had no belt loop, second was too large but still hard to reach the phone fast. Third specifically advertised as for N95-3 phone was equipped with large magnetic flap, which having too strong magnetic field, was triggering screen to horizontal position, and interacting with phone in other weird ways. Paying about half of the grant for phone I refused to stop searching for the right home for my new amazing tool (toy?). Google somehow redirected me to Symbian users group and from one of the entry I learned about Krusell Horizontic 95181. The number is important. A few days later I had Krusell in my hands. The case has dual on belt carry system. One is a Multidapt with a large and strong belt clip. If person prefers to carry phone case on belt, close to the body (safer for the phone and its large screen in my opinion), it needs simply to skip installing clip and use two very elegant and well located belt loops, each finished with snap visible at the bottom of case. The loops can be used with belts up to two inches wide (I use 1-3/8"). Initially phone enters the case with some resistance. What I did, was before the first night I turned off the phone to avoid its complains that too many buttons are pressed at the same time and wrapped the phone with one piece of paper towel forcing the whole package gently into case. In the morning I had a looking very elegant and small, custom made case with phone perfectly fit, but never pressurized to accidentally activate any function. Small magnetic button (magnetic snap) works fine and never triggers phone magnetic switches. The open bottom allows for easy access. A quick push lifts phone up from case, while other fingers grab it from the top. If never tried before, this technique should be tried over the bed first few times, before being mastered.
