このコンテンツについて
This summer, TikTok launched the viral “Flip Phone Summer” trend, sparking a 15,000 percent surge in retro flip phone searches among Gen Z. According to Accio, the appeal comes down to digital detox, nostalgia, and affordability: Gen Zers are cutting their screen time nearly in half, using basic flip phones like the Nokia 2760 Flip to reclaim focus and reduce doomscrolling. Meanwhile, high-end foldables from Samsung and Motorola persist, but with Samsung cutting production by 20 percent and just two brands dominating 70 percent of panel shipments, demand is cooling, possibly awaiting Apple’s rumored 2026 entry. The flip phone resurgence underscores a larger Gen Z sentiment—tech must empower, not overwhelm.
AI continues to grow in influence, not only behind the scenes but as a visible workplace tool. According to a July 2025 KPMG intern survey reported by AOL, 60 percent of Gen Z interns are comfortable using AI for daily tasks, setting them apart from their older work peers. From advanced video codecs to self-service creative advertising platforms, Gen Z expects AI to simplify creativity and communication, not complicate it. Meta’s latest innovations in streaming, as covered by Streaming Media, now include benchmarking tools that help Android hardware keep pace with energy-efficient video decoding—doubling down on seamless video experiences Gen Z expects.
In the smartphone race, Wall Street Journal Personal Tech Columnist Nicole Nguyen reports in PYMNTS that Google’s new Pixel 10 has “lapped” Apple in AI features, with voice cloning translation, automated photo edits, and real-time coaching leading the smartphone AI race. The next-gen smartphone, for Gen Z, is essentially a creative assistant in your pocket—one that blurs language, supports digital wellness, and gives control back to the user.
But the fast-changing tech tide hasn’t solved all problems—especially on the career front. The Economic Times reports a 6.1 percent unemployment rate for computer science graduates, the highest among any field, fueled by an oversupply of degrees and shrinking entry-level roles as companies cut engineering budgets. Gen Z’s answer often comes in the form of side hustles, portfolio careers, and a redefinition of what a “tech job” even means, as many now see AI skills and digital fluency as table stakes—not differentiators.
Social spaces and digital dating have also evolved. As found by Bestechsols, Gen Z approaches dating apps not just for romance but for interest-based friendships and community, with AI-powered matchmaking, video-first profiles, and rigorous verification standards as new essentials. Listeners are seeing a merging of safety, authenticity, and discovery at the core of digital interactions.
Even when it comes to food, Gen Z is shaping the tech of taste. Harmelin Media shares that they’re demanding bold, global flavors and fully customizable orders, driving quick-serve restaurants to embrace AI-powered drive-thrus, menu innovation, and instant mobile ordering—anything to make eating more personal, frictionless, and shareable.
What unites all these threads is intention. Gen Z is not content to blindly adopt new gadgets or sign up for every new platform. They’re asking sharper questions, prioritizing transparency, and building a new foundation for tech consumption that bridges nostalgia and novelty, privacy and performance, community and autonomy.
