This slang term refers to the increase of screen time caused by owning a new smartphone. This phenomenon is mainly caused by a) long-term screen time increase caused by longer battery life, b) short-term screen time increase caused by making initial setting on the new smartphone, where the screen time is to return to normal durations once the smartphone has been on your hand for a while, c) having not installed AppBlock (a mobile similar to the Chrome extension to block websites) on the new smartphone, even though having had one on the last previously owned smartphone.
Ever since I got my new phone, I’ve been experiencing a serious smartphone surge—I can't stop scrolling, and my screen time is through the roof!
