I would argue that what you actually need are bigger pockets, but since pants manufacturers REFUSE TO GIVE THEM TO WOMEN, I see where you’re coming from.
Bigger pockets should be the norm, 100%, but it only solves half the problem.
Hand size is a big thing too. I’d take a smaller screen if it fit my hand better. I don’t want a pop socket, I don’t want to to have to use two hands, and I don’t want to drop my phone.
I have fairly average man sized hands and I’m not clumsy. I probably dropped my Galaxy S4/5 about 1-2 times per year. When I got a bigger phone, it became a couple times a month, and it’s uncomfortable.
Currently, because I don’t want the bulk of a pop socket, but want the one hand grip benefits, I cut two slits in my case and added a loop of kite repair tape that, when I need, I slide a finger though.
I shouldn’t need to do that because my phone is so big I cat reach the whole screen without 2 hands.
Doesn’t solve the small hands ergonomics aspect, but yeah, bigger pockets would be nice.
I’ll take whichever quality of life improvements I can get, though.
Yeah that lost me too. Many standard phones have a much smaller footprint than the flip phones once they’re open, and imo a hinged portion that moves when pressure is applied makes it easier to drop, not more difficult. Like with where my fingers are on the back of my phone now, if I move them I could push the top portion closed if it were a flip phone.

Do flip phones solve that? It’s just as big when open, the flip part is just so it fits nicer in your pocket.
