I always wanted to know what kind of pants people wear who say that to this device size (see also Nintendo DS & co)
- MakerSam 1y agoI wear size 36 Levi's and this one fits in my back pocket
- QuantumNomad_ 1y agoThat’s a risky place to put it, if you forget it’s there and sit down heh
- cydodon 1y agoThat is the advantage of the size! There is little chance you will forget that you have the device in your pocket =P
- TechSquidTV 1y agocheck out my Steam Deck, so portable.
- mouse_ 1y agods (XL, even) fits in my skinny jeans
- floundy 1y agoEither cargo pants, or their waist size is much larger than average.
- wkjagt 1y agoMy DS XL definitely fits in my pants pockets. They're pretty loose fitting pants but not overly so.
- rtaylorgarlock 1y agovintage army cargo pants on right now, baggy af and ready for any 'portable' device I throw at them
- estebank 1y agoHell, some baggy pants could fit an entire SNES in them! https://youtu.be/rY9uitdQIpg?si=5RfMcQvFFvS_GadJ https://youtu.be/rY9uitdQIpg?si=5RfMcQvFFvS_GadJ
- phantasmish 1y agoIDK about pants pockets, but blazer- and sport-coat-wearing needs to make a comeback. Those hip pockets that can comfortably hold all the old pulp "pocket size" paperbacks from back in the day are so damn nice. Great for enormous modern smartphones, too.
- WillAdams 1y agoI miss the old Travelsmith shirts which had pockets sufficiently large to comfortably hold a Sony PRS-505/600 ebook reader. Since then, I did get a pair of shirts which have similarly large pockets which will accept my Kindle Paperwhite and/or Samsung Galaxy Note 10+, but really wish I'd bought more of them, and am kind of stumped for replacing them when they wear out.

- sprobertson 1y agoI printed the casing just to see - it actually does fit in my levi pockets (front and back), but looks and feels a bit ridiculous to actually walk around with
- Etheryte 1y agoAs a man who wears jeans with a bit of stretch to them, I can easily (but not comfortably) fit a large can of beer in each of the four pockets. A small device is no problem compared to that.
- embedding-shape 1y agoAs a man who lives in sweatpants, I could probably fit two cans in the pockets of my current pants, if I try really hard.
- arkensaw 1y agoCargo pants!

- voidUpdate 1y agoGenerally, these sorts of devices struggle to fit in normal trouser pockets, especially women's pockets, but I'm happy that I managed to find women's jeans that actually have reasonable sized pockets, at least big enough to fit my pixel 7a in the front pocket. Still might be a bit small for this though. My hoodie pockets would probably hold it just fine though.
- fer 1y agoFor a while I daily carried an Asus EeePC 901 in my jacket's pocket. Surprisingly comfy if I carried something on the other pocket on top. But yeah my jacket had exceptional pockets.
- dec0dedab0de 1y agoIf you can't fit a Nintendo DS in your pocket you need new pants. Personally, I am annoyed I can't fit an NES in my pocket.
- hiccuphippo 1y agoI feel like "fits in my pants pockets" is one of those weird ways to measure size, like football fields. Does anyone actually puts these things in their pockets? I always carried my Nintendo DS in a backpack.
