For those with larger phones, how do you handle them without grip accessories?

Do you cave and use both hands? Do you take the chance and try to use them one-handed when more actively using them? Or do you ultimately submit and get an accessory to kinda help, at least with keeping a hold of them?

Edit:

a few other answers:just use both hands, get an accessory, and/or balance on pinky and develop the toughest pinky imaginable ::: spoiler bonus: find some smol phone you like and savor it for as long as it works

I’m legally blind, so I try to get the biggest screen I can and probably use it way different then someone who can actually see normally. I just upgraded to the Pixel 7 Pro and the way I do things, I tend to rest the bottom of the phone against my chest, and support the upper end in my palm. while using my other hand to navigate.

I just have big fucking hands

A Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra fits just about right with no case.

Corner wedged into bottom of palm with index finger supporting the top corner and remaining fingers supporting the back, thumb to navigate.

And the bottom rests on the pinky.

I've actually got a callus on the inside portion of my pinky from my phone resting there all the time.

I had to stop handling my phone this way 'cause it felt like that may have been happening, but not quickly enough to mitigate the general discomfort.

i have the lg velvet still, not sure if you would consider it large or not, but i cannot do everything one handed. even when i used a case i never had one of those rings or knobs, i had to use both hands to do everything. i believe it has a ‘one hand’ feature, but im too suborn to even try it

My phone (S21 5g) has a one handed mode, but it’s so not fun to use that I just wait until I can type with my other hand

JetpackJackson ,

Yeah exactly. It doesn’t save time or anything
