Front pocket of my extra tight 501's with a sausage case on it.

Imagine the admiring glances I get.
 
Ok, it's nearly upgrade time and I need to decide between 6 and 6 plus.

Obviously, being a man, I want the biggest and best and every time I see a 6 plus I think that's the one I want.

But how do people carry it around? My 5 goes in either my side or back jeans pocket no problem. Do people find they can do this with a 6 plus? If not, do you all literally hold it all the time when shopping, or buying coffee, or going on a walk?

Enlighten me!
 
I carry it in my hand or in my bag. The Plus is not pocket friendly, so there's no point pretending that it is.

I'm not a fan of putting a phone in the pocket. First of all, it might slip out while you're seated in a car or in a theater. There's also the problem of radiation. While unavoidable, it is better to maximize the distance from your phone and your body.

That's too umm... metrosexual for me.

Army or police style holsters and belt pouches are good enough. I've seen plenty of male office workers equip them to store their smartphones.
 
For all of you that carry the 6(s) Plus in the front pocket, where do you carry your wallet and keys?
 
6s plus front right pocket.

keys left front pocket or since they're on a carabiner sometimes a belt loop if i need them secured more.

wallet back pocket.
 
+ phones are not Levis friendly. Gotta change your wardrobe if you want to comfortably carry a +.

Front pocket of my jeans. I don't wear skinny jeans.
 
At least you think that it does....

whats that supposed to mean? and no it fits fine without any part of the phone sticking out the top or side of the pocket. don't assume, you'll just make an ass out of yourself.

"The RF waves given off by cell phones don’t have enough energy to damage DNA directly or to heat body tissues. Because of this, it’s not clear how cell phones might be able to cause cancer. Most studies done in the lab have supported the idea that RF waves do not cause DNA damage."

Never back pocket. Front only and coat pockets on cool, cold days.

Apple silicon case, very durable and protective.
