Doubt.

Haven't seen a flip phone in use in ages and I work among the public. Even the barely functional elderly on smartphones.

Who paid for this article? What's their angle?

Just the other day I saw an article with the exact opposite headline about how Gen z is sticking with the iPhone. Now I don't know which one is full of shit; but it's obviously one of them.

It was about how Gen Z are rejecting "droids" in favor of iPhones

Isn't the angle just to sound interesting/controversial/unbelievable so people click and see your ads? You know, clickbait?
