> you're hanging out with friends. Talking. Laughing. The moment one person checks their phone, everyone else follows.
In my social circle, anyway, this doesn't happen. It's considered incredibly rude to check your phone while socializing in person unless there's an actual emergency going on, and people will tell you so.
If you want to check your phone, the acceptable way is to go off somewhere away from everyone to do so.
