You’re not supposed to shake vigorously. Lol. If it’s just sitting there, no starch should make its way into your phone, save for just a little at the port openings… MAYBE. Stop making up boogeymen.

Well, I get the being at home with a bigger phone because at home I only use my laptop, even when I want to browse the web during breakfast. It’s when I leave home that I always use the phone one-handed and a bigger device than this is impossible to use. I never cared that much for battery life as I always carry a battery pack whenever I might need it. The screen size is fine in portrait use, but I never watched that many videos (landscape) on a phone so I don’t care for the extra real estate.

Also, the only reason I hate the concept if the regular size becoming the standard is that the smaller sizes are now seen as a niche, and the Mini lineup was cut this year (and possibly will not return for another 2-3 years). If it had a permanent spot, I wouldn’t really care, as the internals are all the same.

The point is that putting a wet device in rice will dry it out, but it will also pull all the starch from the rice and potentially into your phone, causing more problems than it would fix. Silica packets are always the way forward.
