screenagers
Phone-glued young generation
Screenagers are teenagers who have grown up immersed in digital screens—smartphones, tablets, computers, and gaming devices.
The blend of screen and teenager emphasizes how central these devices are to their social lives, entertainment, and identity: Today's screenagers spend more time texting than talking face-to-face.
The term often carries concern about excessive screen time or digital dependency.
