      I used to be like you but recently pocket dialed 911 so I switched to the bottom right method.

        Oh same. Not a good feeling when you accidentally take up the time of the emergency services.

      Okay here me out. Imagine its like 101F outside (this temperature is hot to humans, really hot). If you were to put your phone in your sweaty pocket screen-to-thigh you will get condensation on the screen (due to being pressed against the leg, no ventilation style). The condensation might fog up your screen protector if you have other than the adhesive glass type. Additionally, any pocket lint in your pocket will get stuck to a sweaty thigh phone, making the screen gross and hard to see/use. The above principle applies for shirt pockets.

    Top left. Also, pro tip: if you’re a dork like me who sticks their hands in their pockets and accidentally unlocks their phone with the fingerprint scanner, remove your non-dominant hand’s fingerprints and always put your phone in that same hand’s pocket. E.g. if you are right handed, remove your left hand fingerprints and always put your phone in your left pocket. That way you need to remove the phone from the pocket and transfer it to your other hand before you can unlock it.

      I’m sorry it is literally impossible to put my phone in any other pocket.

      I misread and thought you meant scouring your fingerprints off your fingers

    Top left. I’ve just mimed out Top Right and it hurts my brain and wrist.

      I think the only way top right would work for me is if I was holding the phone with two hands, and then pocketed with thr hand that slid on top?

    If you do anything other than top left then I’m guessing the only reason you carry a smartphone is for the taste.

    Seriously who the fuck does anything other than that? It would actually require more effort as you have to reposition the phone in your hand and THEN put it in your pocket instead of just putting it in your fucking pocket.

    God damn reprobates

    As a woman. The few pants that I own that can fit a phone I do top left.

    Top left for sure. I’m always worried I’ll bump into something and break my screen.

      You don’t put your phone in the same pocket ae the key.

      This is the rule no 0

    Bottom right, front left pocket. Wallet goes in the back right pocket. Keys go in the front right pocket.

      I do the same, but flip left and right. Are you left-handed?

        That’s annoying. I can’t immediately find a replacement. Maybe Google has done something that prevents further development.

        I’ll attempt to contact the author for more info and will reply here if I can find this post again :)

      This is the most correct answer, because it results in the phone being in the correct orientation in your hand when you take it out. fite me.
