I have never owned a smart phone and am going to purchase the iPhone 6 plus in the next few months. When you are out in public do you just put it in your pocket or do you use a carry case that clips onto your belt? Do you know of any good quality carry cases for the iphone?
Personal iPhone 5s (In an apple leather case) goes in my front pocket. At work when I am in the cockpit I tend to put it in my brest shirt pocket, as it is a pain to check if I engaged airplane mode if I still have it in my pants pocket.
(To be fair, the iPhone 5s is slightly too tall for a shirt pocket, I can't imagine I would be able to fit the next iphone in there.)
Oh, and the screen on the 5s is tough, I have accidentally put my bare phone and keys together in the same pocket multiple times without any issues (although to still would not recommend it.)
I also have a work iPhone 5s (in an otter box defender case required by my employer.). That goes on a belt clip, however it has become unclipped while sitting. The defender case with belt clip also gives off the "Batman Utility Belt" look, which is not fashionable in any way.
I am not planning to upgrade my personal phone now, but once it is time I am going to have to physically handle each model to see what will work for me, I suspect the smaller model might be easier for my needs.
