What about when I could swear it vibrated but I take it out and there's no notification? And I can feel it vibrate a minute after I put it back in my pocket??
lol! I call this GNS (Ghost Notification Syndrome 😅) and I even have it sometimes with the phone lying somewhere beside me or actually being in the opposite side pocket...
At first I thought it was just muscle-twitches or something alike, but over the years I've noticed that I never seem to get it when I'm already doing something on the phone, so could still be psychological too... 😅
That just depends which person you decide is right. I still vote mine since I already call it that since ~2000 and apparently this term was coined in 2003 in a comic book, but I could be slightly biased... 😅

You can clearly see he dropped his phone on purpose.

Maybe he just doesn't have any elbows? 🤔 That would make anybody clumsy trying to read small text. 😅

This happens when you neglect your phone. When you don't look after it each time it vibrates

Or you could call it by its real name, PVS (Phantom Vibration Syndrome):
