    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.

    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

      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?

    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

        There’s actually less hand movement for top right than top left

        Top right you just move your phone down and… Keep moving it down

        Top right you have to rotate your wrist 180° then do the same motion

        I’m not saying it’s not muscle memory, just that from an objective viewpoint top right is easier to learn given you haven’t learnt any of the others yet

    Used to do bottom left when my phone had a bad touch screen and would interact with my thigh. Ever since getting a pixel, top left.

      I’m bottom right, because my thigh accidentally called emergency services three times one day (three calls, one right after another, and I only noticed the third one). Turns out my slightly sweaty thigh activated the screen (tap to wake) and tapped the “Emergency” button on the OnePlus lock screen. So now I turn the screen outward in my pocket out of fear of that happening again.
