Hence why she said “usually.” Leggings and very few pairs of jeans are the only female pants i’ve ever seen with big enough pockets for even an iPhone 12 Mini. I’d say excluding leggings, 95% percent of women’s pants don’t have big enough pockets. And only probably 60% of leggings have big enough pockets.
yeah those super tough cases do nothing to distribute the force from the fall. It is tough, the case will never break. But instead the force goes straight into the phone through the case. Rubber cases are wear it’s at, if you can’t get a Otterbox or don’t like them, any rubber bumper case is better than any plastic or metal case because the rubber absorbs the force. Which is why they tend to bounce a little when they fall. With a metal case it wouldn’t bounce much at all, so you can even physically see the physics in the two types of cases.
