I usually go for the smaller sized iPhone but opted for the 11 pro max for the extra battery. So far loving it but it can sometimes be uncomfortable when in my pocket.

I usually keep my phone in my front right pocket but with the issues I’m having I have been considering keeping it in my back pocket.
What do you do?
 
Front right pocket of anything I'm wearing - shorts, jeans, gym shorts, pajamas, ect. I've had it there for years, it's like second nature. I have a XR with a UAG case.

Front right pocket, upside down, facing inward.

If I don’t have pockets (stupid women’s fashion!), left bra cup, upside down, facing outward.

Only ever those two spots for >10 years now. Anywhere else feels super weird and uncomfortable.

Pixel 3a XL: Left rear pocket.
iPhone 6s+: Left rear pocket behind Pixel
iPhone 6s: Right side inner cargo pocket
iPhone 4s/4: Right side outer cargo pocket

I've mainly been putting the 4 and 4s in my laptop bag lately though.
 
Left front pocket; usually don't have anything else in that pocket. Yes women's pants suck for carrying anything other than a tissue. I opt for men's slacks for that reason. I have to have my inhaler on me at all times.
 
11 Pro Max, was XS Max. Left front pocket in Apple leather case with the back out to give the display some impact protection. Nothing else goes in that pocket.
 
I have been using one of these

double layer of leather, smooth finish inside and out so phone slips in and out easily. 2 strong magnets hold it closed. I had it for my iPhone 7 in an Otterbox defender and the xl was a good fit and also fits my new iPhone 11 pro in a hard clear case.
 
For those of you who put your phones in your front right pocket, where do you put your keys at? I always put my phone in my front left pocket, keys in front right, and wallet in front or back right.

Keys: left front pocket.

Phone: right front pocket (because I use my phone with my right hand).


Everything else: pocketbook or backpack.
 
Jacket pocket. Thankfully, air conditioning runs full blast in the office so even I can wear a jacket even during our 100° summers.
 
My phone is always in my front right jean pocket, nothing else ever in there with it, I like to take care of my phones.

If you know anything about being pick pocketed in a crowed place , you’d carry phone and your wallet in your front pocket. LOL Luckily my phone is both and in front pocket.

Front right pocket is iPhone.
Front left is a simple card holder and a key.
