Shorts for larger phones

Does anyone know of a pair of running shorts that has a pocket big enough for a plus size phone? Googling isn't coming up with great answers and it's not the same as recommendations.

I use a running belt as I need my inhaler as well as phone and key. I’m not sure if they vary in size but got mine in decathalon for a few quid.

I use a running pouch. A fiver from Tesco. Can fit phone and car key in it.

I’m with Pinkybee and find a running belt better... I don’t get the feeling my shorts are gonna ride down 😂

The Flip belt is supposed to be able to take larger phones though I haven't tried it (debating getting one). I just use a bum bag at the moment

Thanks for the help, it's looking like a done deal. Pouch it is.
