Argh no! Make them carry their own stuff, or hubby can carry the stuff if they're too young. Having to wear a fanny pack (or bum bag here in the UK) and then adding insult to injury by having other people's stuff in it. Nope.

Bum bag’s and shell suits. What horrors lol

It sounds to me like the OP is the financier. The way he formed his question makes it appear he's paying bills. So if it's on his dollar then he should have some say in the decision making. If it's on her dollar then she should be able to buy whatever she wants, with, or without his input.
Too bad this forum doesn’t have a dislike button!

Not female, but fairly tall man. Xr is great when you can put two hands on it. One-handed-usage dictates shifting it around in my hand or using reachability. When I sit down I always have to take it out of my pocket. Very annoying.

XSE please - a slightly smaller, thinner version of the XS with Xr-class specs.
Short woman with small hands and yet I can use my XR single handed without using reachability. I’m sorry I laugh at males who complain about the size of the XR.

That said, to the op the best thing would be for your wife to go instore and play around with the different models. No matter how you look at it, it’s going to take some getting use to coming from such a small phone.
