As someone who tries to stay off their phone in social situations I'd stay that yes, this applies to people the age of my parents aswell but not exclusively. Almost everyone is like this. A ton of people seem to think they can keep up a conversation while doing stuff on their phones. I've yet to meet anyone who actually can.

I like to get it out to check something we're talking about, like "I would like to see X live again" -> "maybe there's a concert soon?" but otherwise it stays in my pocket

Same. Except it's usually more, like, verify an obscure fact or something.
