When you spend a significant amount of time with someone, there is the probability of forming an emotional attachment to them. Well, the same goes with the things that you own, especially your phone.
People spend hours with their phones daily—so it’s no wonder you can become emotionally attached to them. This is especially true for Gen Z, for whom phones have become constant companions, especially during the pandemic.
When Gen Z chooses a smartphone, they’re choosing their best friend for the next three years.
When it comes to Gen Z, their phones have been the one constant in a time of change and uncertainty, making them an essential component of life—just like a best friend.
Creative and passionate, their phones have enabled Gen Zs to express themselves. Many of the activities they enjoy revolve around a creative lifestyle, including music, dance, and writing. As most of them are also out in the world to get more inspiration and to use as a creative space, they rely on their phones to do their projects on the go.
Aside from being creative, Gen Zers also look for a sense of belonging by joining groups that they can relate to. Midway into the pandemic, mobile phones have been the way for the young generation to connect to the world. This has been more apparent as phones have been their main channel for communication while living in a world of restrictions. 66% of Gen Z joined online communities to connect with people with similar interests. Likewise, 61% of them have claimed that they are “superfans” of something, which can be in different forms of interests like TV series, movies, music icons, or K-pop groups.
Like many of us, Gen Z also use their phone to escape the world through entertainment. 74% of Gen Z shared that they listen to the soundtrack of their favorite TV show or movie to make them feel like they are one of the characters, while 90% watched a video that made them feel like in a different place.
For these reasons, it’s not surprising that young people develop unique emotional attachments to them. 79% of Gen Z claim that they cannot live without their phones!
