same-generation
Born around together
Same-generation describes people, things, or versions belonging to the same generational cohort or iteration.
Family members of the same generation share a level on the family tree—siblings and cousins rather than parents and children.
In technology, same-generation devices share comparable capabilities: The two phones are same-generation, so performance is nearly identical.
The term often implies rough equivalence or compatibility.
