I had expected the loop to join and lock somehow but it is open on one end near the side that adheres to the phone. The two ends come close but do not lock in any way. I suppose this makes it easier to take it off with one hand when it rings, but I am afraid it may come off too easily, though it hasn't fallen off yet that I know of. <br /> <br />The plastic loop looks a bit flimsy. I'm not sure how long it will last. I think it will eventually break off, but it works for now. The instructions said to install the loop so that it is just high enough to put a finger through the loop, but my son's cell phone is small, so the loop comes a bit higher off the phone than that. It is good, if all I want to do is clip it to the belt loop, but if I decide I want to put it in my purse or pocket, the loop would make it awkward, and I'm afraid the loop would break. <br /> <br />The Cliphanger is mounted with adhesive, which seems to hold fine. It mounts to the back of the phone, so if the back is the cover to a battery and that cover comes off easily, this product is not for you. <br /> <br />So far so good. I am just worried about the durability of the product and the design which may cause the phone to fall off the belt loop. I guess as long as my son doesn't play rough and roll around in the dirt, this product might work. We haven't had problems yet, despite my concerns.

With rough handling the thin part of the plastic hook may bend slightly. I tried to get one off to change to new mobile phone, but the glue was quite adhesive. Once it's off you can't really use it on a second device. I like its flatness and security compared to bulkier clips that attach with ratcheting male/female components (the bulkier clip ratchet can come loose and you lose your phone). You do need a belt or purse loop to attach it to. Overall these are minor limitations and I continue to use this product. Rating: 4 / 5 I have had clip hangers off and on for a few years.
