how do you carry your phone?|pad patter 1.24.2018!

The designated phone pocket in my purses aren't big enough LOL! I just throw in the main area my traveler's notebook and call it good!

My Otter has definitely seen better days! It's as old as the phone, so four years, it's kinda stretched out and the plastic piece that covers the screen is busted in one of the corners and the side tabs are pretty much gone...but it has saved my phone from many drops! I'm torn on upgrading my phone as well...I'm really sick of the bill, but with two kids soon to be in school and no landline I need something, but the price tags that come with phones anymore is frightening!

Phew! Someone like me!
The designated pocket in my purse is inside the zippered part. Which could be any of three options including the biggest one that fits my DSLR.

My case isn't OtterBox this time, but a knockoff. Because I'm sorta wanting this one to stop working so I can upgrade, but I also don't really want to do the phone research so I'm want it to survive longer.

I have my iPhone 5 if a LifeProof case which now needs replacing as there is a hole in the case by the ringer switch. It's in the front pocket of my purse or back pocket of my jeans.

My daughter just got a pair of leggings from Pink for Christmas with a specific phone pocket. Cute and practical for her but not for her old lady mother. :D

this is pretty much me - 2 phones ago, i could have about 2 apps at any one time, now it's about 10 (& i cleaned out my photos last week or so and i still get the 'no room to update' message), i'm putting off getting a new one for now though - its 2yrs old & just has a clear plastic cover on the back (with a pink tinkerbell silhouette b/cos everthings better disney-fied in my world)

My iPhone6 is really due for an upgrade but I love the case I use the most. It's all vegetables. Just add me to the group who longs for real pockets in pants/jeans. If I put it horizontally into my side pockets on jeans it fits, but I have to say when I get a call or text (sound is almost always off) that vibration sure makes me jump as it tickles me! Never really knew my hip was so ticklish. When I don't have a pocket in the house, I keep it on my computer table but when I go out, it always goes into the one front pocket of my one & only purse where it fits perfectly. Knock on wood, I've never shattered a screen and the few times I've dropped it, it's been in our house where our wood floors seem to absorb the impact.

Recently, my old cloth $5 wallet picked up in NYC was really looking like hell. It was purple (# 37 in my top ten colors!) but it had two good pockets for paper money including European bills. It just looked like...sh..well you know. I saw a friend's rectangular (checkbook kinda shape) wallet, loved it but realized it was a Coach. Even though my $5 wallet had to go I balked at the price on line. Then a friend took me to the Navy exchange near us and I got a Kate Spade for $80. which I plan to keep...forever. I love the leather texture and the huge change purse section can also hold my phone should I want to go that route.
 
I have a Steamboat Willie rubber case on my iPhone 7 and a "pop socket". I love the pop socket! It's kind of like a Loopy, but it just suctions onto my phone case. When I'm out, I have an outside pocket on my purse that it fits in.



This is a "pop socket". It helps me grip my phone a little easier. They were originally made to help people hold their phones easier when they took selfies.
