The advancement of digital technologies has fundamentally reshaped consumer behaviour in contemporary markets. This study examines how technological adoption – particularly the use of smartphones, artificial intelligence (AI), big data analytics, social media platforms, and digital payment systems – has transformed the way consumers search for information, evaluate alternatives, make purchase decisions, and engage with brands in digital environments. As consumers increasingly rely on technology-driven interfaces, their expectations regarding convenience, personalization, speed, and interactivity have evolved, leading to significant changes in decision-making processes and consumption patterns. The research explores the relationship between technological adoption and key dimensions of consumer behaviour, including trust formation, perceived risk, impulse purchasing, brand loyalty, and customer engagement. Digital tools such as recommendation algorithms, chatbots, virtual assistants, and targeted advertising not only influence purchasing behaviour but also reshape post-purchase experiences through real-time feedback, online reviews, and social sharing. These developments suggest that technology is no longer merely a channel for transactions but a central mediator of consumer experiences. The study also discusses managerial implications, emphasizing the need for businesses to integrate emerging technologies strategically to meet evolving consumer expectations and enhance competitive advantage in digital markets.
