Personally I'd have anything bigger than a 6S plus banned for T/O and landing but they just seem to get bigger every year.
One idiot ignored the cabin crews PA on a CWLCY landing back at LCY advising them hold on to anything loose due landing requirements at LCY. He left his iPad an bottle of water on the central area between the seats. Upon landing his iPad flow forward, smashed into the seats in front then hit him in the leg.
Everyone had to wait for around 5 minutes on the bus while he argued with the cabin crew at the door.
