I’m right handed, but I keep my phone in my left pocket since I like to be able to pull out my phone to check the map or msgs while using my primary hand for another activity.

When texting, I usually use both hands but certainly can type with just my left hand.

Where do you keep your phone & why?

    Phone right front. Wallet right back.

    Keys left front. You can’t keep a phone and keys in the same pocket. Especially not with the size of modern phones.

    Consistency means I always know if I’ve forgotten my phone keys/wallet. There’s never searching or wondering where they’ve gone.

        I used to keep mine in my back pocket, then I noticed that my leg would go numb during long drives. Kinda put two and two together and started keeping it in the front pocket.

        Well, lookee here at Mr. Moneybags who actually has enough bills for that to be a concern! \s


        I use a very thin bifold wallet like this (stock photo; not my ID):

        Mine is currently 13.6 mm thick, folded with all my cards and stuff in it. (I happen to have a set of Vernier calipers sitting on my desk in front of me so I went ahead and measured, LOL.)

        I use a really thin non-folding wallet. Sometimes it’s in the back and sometimes I put it in the front pocket for more security.

        I’ve seen some of the 4 inch thick wallets that people sit on. No idea how or why.
