Return of the Flip Phones

Quite a large number of members of the Gen Z generation are turning in their Smart Phones for old-fashioned flip phones.  According to a recent article by Matthew Shaer, there are “Luddite clubs” at some high schools and on college campuses.  There is even a phone-free campaign known as the “Reconnect Movement” which has as its slogan, “We’re all craving something real.”  According to a recent poll, over half of the Gen Z respondents had experimented with “digital detoxing,” far more than baby boomers.


I am always so pleased when I am on the cusp of a new trend.
