Only for the most broad definition of cargo pants.
Cargo pants are a style that emphasizes the size and bulk of the pockets to telegraph maximum utility. That is definitely not the case here. These seemed to be intended to provide a balance of utility with only minimal bulk.
I have had various pants over the last 15 years or so with variations of this pocket. When wearing them I keep my phone there and it is a relief. This avoids the pressure and breaking risk of the upper pockets and it avoids the unnecessary flopping around from a cargo pocket.
