Right front pocket with screen cleaning cloth at all times. Everything else goes in other pockets like keys etc..
I'm trying to NOT put my iPhone 6 in my back pocket but it's a bad habit us girls have. So far I've been successful, but I could break any day now lol.... My jeans are big enough to be able to hold my iPhone in my front pocket.
This is actually a relevant topic. I find myself carrying the plus in my hand a lot more. Might consider a shoulder holster lol.
Putting it in your back pocket probably isn't so much of a problem. I put mine in my back pocket all the time. SITTING DOWN with it in your back pocket? That's where the problem happens.
I think that's an important thing: having a set place to put it where you don't put anything else. I never put anything else in my pocket with my phone, and I never put my phone in any other pocket. Deviating from this is a good way to lose the phone or damage it, I think.
I've gotten so accustomed to having my phone in my left front pocket, and to checking periodically that it's there, that once I found myself momentarily panicked when I tapped my front pocket and the phone wasn't there. Turns out it was in my hand.
Haha I completely agree with all of that. My phone goes in my right pocket nothing else does. And I have had those moments of panic when you tap and it's not there lol.
I put it in my left pants pocket like I have all my other iPhones which is 'normal use'.
When people said the phone doesn't bend under 'normal use' they were referring to putting in your back pocket and sitting on it or holding it up with two hands and forcefully trying to bend it. That's not normal use. Who sits on a $1000 gadget?

To the people who put it in their back pocket, first of all why and 2nd of all do you ever sit on it? One of my coworkers said he sits on it as he has all of his phones, and he further said he thought it was wierd that I DON'T sit on it lol. This makes zero sense to me why anybody would be OK with sitting on a $650+ device. Dude isn't small either, he's at least 240lbs and 6'5.
Front right pocket alone, upside down with the front facing inward. I've been carrying my phone that way for many years, since I had the Treo way back when (used to be right side up, until they moved the headphone jack). Never any other pocket.
If I'm wearing clothes without a pocket, I either carry it in my left bra cup or in my purse.

I always wear shirts with pockets and i always carry my phone in my shirt pocket. I have done this with the 4, 5 and now the 6 Plus.
I have seriously considered a "man Purse"
In my head i think i would look like the first picture, but i have a feeling i would look like the second picture so i have not pulled the trigger yet.

My iPhone 5 goes in my left front pants pocket. When I get the 6 Plus it will go there as well. Minimalist wallet and keys are in front right pants pocket. With the colder weather, the phone goes in a zippered pocket of my windbreaker. If it's too cold for the windbreaker, the phone will probably go back into my pants, as it's way too easy to fall out of any of the pockets in my jacket.
