1. The iPhone Loyalist: The Vibe is Premium
You have an iPhone 13 or newer, probably a 15 or 15 Pro Max. You care about aesthetics, shoot clean Insta reels, and your Snap score is insane. You likely AirDrop memes, have a curated Notes app filled with life plans and soft reminders, and maybe even run a side hustle or two from your phone.
What it says about you:
“I love a polished experience, I am big on branding—my own and others—and I am probably trying to go viral without looking like I am trying.”
You use Apple Pay when available and know all the right camera angles. If your iPhone screen is not cracked, you also give off quiet luxury vibes.
2. The Samsung Power User: You are Ambitious with Range
If you are holding a Galaxy S22, S23, or one of the new Z Flip/Fold models, you are the kind of person who is both tech-curious and image-conscious. You love multitasking—editing a video on CapCut while responding to emails and running WhatsApp groups.
What it says about you:
“I get things done, and I want a phone that can keep up. I want performance and personality in one sleek fold.”
You may be in the creative space—photography, content creation, or design—but you like structure. You also love standing out, especially when flipping your phone open in public.
3. The Infinix/TECNO Camon Crew: The Hustle is Real
You are the heart of Gen Z Nairobi—young, gritty, adaptable. You want value for money and you know how to make things work. Your phone might not be flashy, but your content is strong. You shoot 4K videos, create flyers, pitch via PDF, and handle M-Pesa till numbers like a boss.
What it says about you:
“I am grinding, I am online, and I am building. Catch me on TikTok, then meet me at a shoot or an event in Kasarani.”
Bonus: If you are running a Camon 30 or Infinix Zero Ultra, you are not to be underestimated—you are packing pro-level features on a smart budget.
4. The Google Pixel Fan: You are That Different
Nairobi does not have many Pixels floating around, so if you have one (especially the 7 or 8 series), you are intentional. You love tech with a clean interface, minimal bloat, and thoughtful AI. You take pride in subtle rebellion and meaningful conversations—your playlists are obscure, your taste is refined, and you probably know how to code.
What it says about you:
“I am not chasing hype, I am living in my own lane—and that lane includes top-tier photography, powerful AI, and being effortlessly cool.”
5. The iPhone SE or Older Android User: You Are Selectively Online
You are the low-key Gen Z—less about trends, more about essentials. You might be into books, crypto, or NGO work. You are not anti-social, but you are definitely not ruled by social media. Your phone works, and that is all that matters.
What it says about you:
“I have more important things to focus on, and I do not need a flashy phone to prove anything.”
You probably use your phone mostly for WhatsApp, Gmail, and Google Docs. If someone air-drops you a video, you will politely ask them to just send it on Telegram.
