I was born in 1995 right on the cusp between the Millennial & Generation Z while i have mixed opinions on what I think about demographic labels they’re not a science but popular so its there if anyone wants to know 😀
I’m born in the 90s but mostly grew up in the 00s.

The 1990s were a time of rapid technological change, with new gadgets and devices emerging at a breakneck pace. For those of us who grew up during that era, the memories of those early tech products are still vivid and often nostalgic. Here are some of the most memorable tech products from the 90s that we still remember today.

1. The Walkman
The Sony Walkman was one of the most iconic tech products of the 90s. It allowed us to take our music with us on the go, and it was a must-have accessory for anyone who wanted to listen to their favorite tunes while out and about.

2. The Game Boy
The Nintendo Game Boy was another hugely popular tech product from the 90s. It was the first handheld gaming console that allowed us to play our favorite games anywhere, anytime. Whether it was Tetris, Super Mario Land, or Pokemon, the Game Boy was a constant companion for many of us.

3. The VCR
The VCR was a game-changer for movie lovers in the 90s. It allowed us to record our favorite TV shows and movies, and we could watch them whenever we wanted. It was also the first time that we could rent movies from the video store and watch them at home.

4. The Pager
Pagers were the ultimate status symbol in the 90s. They allowed us to stay connected with our friends and family, and they were a must-have accessory for anyone who wanted to be seen as cool and connected.

5. The Tamagotchi
The Tamagotchi was a virtual pet that we could carry around with us wherever we went. It was a huge hit with kids in the 90s, and it was a great way to learn responsibility and take care of something that was completely dependent on us.

6. The Discman
The Sony Discman was the successor to the Walkman, and it allowed us to listen to our favorite CDs on the go. It was a great way to take our music collection with us wherever we went, and it was a must-have accessory for anyone who wanted to be seen as cool and tech-savvy.

7. The Personal Computer
The personal computer was already well established by the 90s, but it was still a revolutionary product that changed the way we work and play. It allowed us to connect with the world in ways that we never thought possible, and it paved the way for the
 
I was born in 1990 so right at the beginning of the decade. 😀 I loved playing my Gameboy color and eventually got a Game Boy Advance. (Yeah I know that's not a 90's device since it was released in 2001. 😛) Technology really seemed to evolved quite rapidly in the 90's, the internet became widely available to everyone and in the mid to late 90's lots of awesome websites were founded. I have to say my favorite tech from the 90's is probably the PC, they were much more capable than the microcomputers that were released in the late 70's and throughout the 80's.

I'm quite an old goat 😂.. I was born in 1985, so I've seen it all. I actually still have my Gameboy and also Gameboy Advanced. My uncle's pager 📟 is still here but it doesn't work again.

1985-1993 is the same group of people imo,
You both were old enough to fully expirence some or all of the 90s 😀
 
Absolutely! The '90s was a golden era for tech. From dial-up internet and bulky CRT monitors to the iconic flip phones and the rise of personal computers, it was a time of huge change and innovation. Remember those early days of gaming with consoles like the Nintendo 64, PlayStation, and Sega Genesis? And don't forget the emergence of MP3 players, like the original iPod.

The original iPod was a classic. I miss having mine.

The Tamagotchi
The Tamagotchi was a virtual pet that we could carry around with us wherever we went. It was a huge hit with kids in the 90s, and it was a great way to learn responsibility and take care of something that was completely dependent on us.
The tamagotchi inspired an entire generation of pet games and vpets. It’s awesome that they’re still pushing forward 25 years later. The concept has evolved over time, but the foundation still remains the same.

The caring and raising for a virtual pet is still quite popular.

Tamagotchi was released in 1996, then Neopets was released in 1999.
