Modern phones are pathetic

Not just screen on time. Even small batteries can sustain light use for some time. While modern SoCs are efficient in bursty loads, the higher end chipsets can consume quite a lot of power under sustained loads such as gaming, photo editing, etc. Websites with misbehaving ads can also peg a big core, drawing a ton of power out of the blue. I feel a fair bit of margin is crucial to allow for heavier workloads while keeping battery degradation to a minimum. 

Haha, that ok. Photo editing, something hardly anyone does on their phone, gaming, which while valid at destroying battery life, again isn't something you should be spending many many hours doing a day, and if you do then get a phone that supports that habit. With normal use phones battery life is fine.

Okay dude, I have yet to see a source for this. Also I don't need to ask, a friend of mine works at a women's tailoring store in the mall, says pockets sell but management still refuses to sell more than 2 designs that will fit car keys for the same reasons you're parroting. Cognitive dissonance can be in human nature.

So the people that look at the numbers say they won’t sell as well.  Sees you already have one.  It’s not a question of sell at all.  It’s a question of sell better.  A pocket is better than no pocket all things being equal.  The problem is there are a very limited number of designs where they don’t cause problems

I mean...if you're in the car, why would it even be in your pocket?

I wear tight jeans and pants. Even when I had a Note, it wasn't hard to carry.

When you’re driving, why the heck is your phone out of the pocket? I tend to just connect to the Bluetooth dongle (because my car didn’t come with Bluetooth), set a playlist, and stick my phone in the pocket for the drive. No real need to mess with it thereafter.

There's dozens of other places you can stick it, other than your pants pocket if it's a bigger phone.

Mine is out of my pocket because it’s on the charging dock in my car.

My personal phone is produced from 2012.  I drop it and laugh at damaged Mother Earth.
