Never really understood why you would want a transparent screen. Like, if I’m watching the screen, I want to see the screen, not what’s behind the screen.
Holograms/”pop up” displays I get, since you don’t need a bulky monitor, you can just project your screen/3D object into the air, but a transparent screen is just as bulky as a regular one except it shows you stuff you don’t want to look at.
I think implantation is the end game. You'll see and interact with a HUD in your mind.
There was a product startup – "Sixth Sense " looks like it had to Become a thing by now
I'm going to make a prediction. AR will replace the smart phone, and there will be an app that will procedurally make everyone appear naked in real time. Sorry.
I don't think people will wear their tech like that. Even the best VR/AR can still make people not feel great, dizzy, headaches, etc. A phone you can put away, you can peek at your pocket, etc etc. It has a screen large enough to use, but discreet enough to conceal. Battery tech is really the only thing that holds back their performance.
AI is also pretty great, cloud ai solutions though can be intermittently bad and the more your device relies on them, the more of a brick it can become. On device AI is limited by battery tech mostly as well.
I think the future of "phones" is going to be a singular device that just deals a "vm" that is your phone, and a device to interface with it. You'll have different "terminals" where it could be the size of a phone, or a mid – large sized tablet.
This is why I always buy refurbished older models. I'm using a Samsung galaxy S10 and I'm perfectly contect. The latest is not always the greatest.
I cant understand why they are still called phones. Most don't know how to talk to other humanoids.
"The End Of The Smartphone Is Near"
you forgot to say a solid reason
i want a refund for those 22 minutes
clickbait title
When is the last time you changed your PC or laptop?! They are just slightly more powerful or slightly smaller, so you change them when they're broken. That's the near future of mobile phones.
In the beginning was the WORD…
The only thing left, really, are implants. Where do you want it; left hand or forehead? Can't wait for the Internet to become sentient… BORG, anyone??
Everyone forgets about Black Berry.
I sold Nokia phones for Fido here in Canada in 2000 when cell coverage was rather sparse. I have a basic phone for calls in emergencies (I have random seizures) and text one friend not on fb. We're still a landline home. We both have older laptops and I have a tablet about 8" for games I can't play on the laptop due to flash. We're living fine still.
People still thinking that so called "smartphone" is a new kind of phone and not a PMC (Personal Mobile Computer) is the best marketing gimmick of the millenium.
Your such an Apple fanboy Joe…😂
As long as they don't make AR an invasive device that requires surgery and implantation. For two reasons. One, who in their right mind would allow a company any leverage over their body and privacy for something as superficial as convenience? Two, if technology keeps advancing every few years, the tech you installed will become obsolete! So you have to keep getting expensive, invasive surgeries! It'd be a bunch of capitalist rich people nonsense at that point.
If you consider all of the cracked phone cases and screens i would have to say that we are probably not at the end of evolution for smart phones even just for insurance reasons from a business perspective. Some kind of technology that is either integrated with your body or at least attached to you so they will be less prone to being dropped would be a big leap forward as far as functionality is concerned.
We need more camera lids in our lives
I'm not an apple hater… but I don't like using a product that is deliberately throttled when it gets a year old just so I'll be frustrated enough to buy a new one. And then be forced to buy a new charger because it keeps changing and doesn't come with the phone…
IPin: I'm always recording everything in your field of vision 😈
Me: *removes batteries when not using
IPin: NOOOO
Frankly, unless the tech manufacturers are reigned in with regards to their constant and never-ending quest to invade our privacy (fat chance of Congress taking that on) any further advancements are frightening, at least for those willing to look beyond the glitz and status symbology of gotta have tech.
The question we should be asking is, do we really got to have it? And at what price?
Expanse-like ones would be great.
Listen, Hippe. Get your haircut back to 3 years ago joe. And get off my lawn. 🙂
I think you hit the nail on the head with the device being perfect for the job. Much like faucets, it serves it purpose. I see an upward trend of people wanting more privacy so I just can't see these in-your-face camera's being something that people will put up with. That being said, I also didn't think orange men or dead men could become president, so I may not be the best judge.
I don’t think foldable/bendable phone are there yet. When they do, I think they will be super common
1:55 I think this is the wrong way to think about this. One thing that has changed over the last 20 years is the core concept of what makes a company valuable. It has become more and more evident as time goes on that the ecosystem and network that a company controls is generally its most valuable asset, not it's technology or capacity for innovation. Take Apple for example, Apple has drastically outperformed the broader market over the last 10 years despite a complete lack of groundbreaking innovation. They did this by focusing on their network, and ecosystem of devices. Long story short, I don't Apple is all that worried about being the first to develop the "next big thing" anymore, they know that even if they are the 3rd or 4th on the scene, they can still dominate the landscape due to their pre-existing infrastructure. This is exactly how they approached VR and in-house chip design and financial services.
So I kill phones like the plague rolling through dark ages Europe, and I decided that instead of burying myself in more debt by financing a phone and seriously don't do this, phones depreciate at a rate that makes even the automotive industry go "DAMN!!" So borrowing money from your carrier and agreeing to interest on top is financial idiocy. Borrow for assets that appreciate like houses and use your own for those that rapidly depreciate like electronics. Anyway all carriers have pre paid options with phone to go with them. As an At&t customer I just buy one of their phones for the prepaid service and just throw my Sim card in and the phone doesn't know or care and just works. I buy the $50-$75 phones and I've come across a gem in the case of cheap phones. The Samsung galaxy a03s has decent specs but the battery is where it shines. Average iPhone battery is like 3000 mah ish probably less and this $60 phone has a 6500 mah battery that lasts all day with me playing YouTube videos while I work
Seems to have skipped the blackberry
you are really iphone biased. 70% of people use android. they are making foldable phones, etc. just iphone isn't changing. open your eyes. thumbs down
Cortana tried, and was able to be a true digital assistant. The problem is everyone just went nah, and asked Siri instead. Now, with ChatGPT, Cortana is back, betcha didn't know that!
I. Was zoning out and that rainbow sound effect made me jump out of my skin
We may be predictable but at least we don't use apple products.
technology will only innovate when it can make us be more lazy
The devices the characters use in The Expanse. Like an iphone or pad they can look directly at or lay down somewhere and cast a large screen in front of themselves so they or others can look at it. It would be life-changing enough to have something like that, but once again you'd be spending a lot of time looking at screens, just transparent ones you can flip up and expand and interact with.
Omg that apes scared me to death!
The humane pin does not sound like a very good idea.
In most use cases of the smartphone, you are either doing something personal on a screen that you probably don't want to put on a speaker, or you're talking to someone on phone and only psychopaths use speaker phone in public.
Ai saatana
At this point, we're just one biovat away from the matrix.
people don't like distractions, as much as they like being bored and lazy. its too easy to fill that void with a phone versus actually working and doing more with their flabby bodies. im not blind, Joe. nor stupid. and deffinilitly not dumbed down by social media and my phone. but thats what im observing out of those around me. i look at my phone maybe 5 times a day. more like 3. possible less on the average. doesn't take but a few seconds to see if i have a oney text/call. You know. i actually use my mobile for work. communicating with clients. i don't nor ever will want a social site to do that with. i got a fb gathering shi loaf of dust and a twitter/X. that is literally on its death bed lol… since musk is badas's, i used X more than i ever have this year so far, or since he walked into that shihole with a got dam fukn sink in his hands… lmao
Problem is wearing around diving goggles makes you look like a dork. To be successful, it will actually need to look cool.
Let’s face it, that pin thingy ain’t really going to catch on. Today’s cellphones aren’t just voice and simple text communication devices, they are pocket-sized video/pic watching, web browsing devices and cameras with a large hi-def screen based viewfinders, among other things. The pin phone does none of that.
5:28 phones don't need to be transparent, they just need to correctly protect what the camera sees to the screen to make it look transparent.
Smartphones will be like cars, innovative yet fundamentally the same. There is a reason why combustion engine is still king. I think we are looking in the wrong place for advancement and the next leap will be machine human interface like neuralink, but not invasive like a brain chip, more like a temple device similar to black mirror episode.
You have a beard!
i love that we also still have to take all technological advancements through the moral lens of capitalism at this point in human history. who does this benefit? who makes money off of it?
I don't use those blades out of fear of cutting myself. But i usually keep my beard and mustache because i don't like shaving overall.
Transparent phones are a stupid idea. Now everyone can see what I am doing on my phone.. And it just looks cool, but doesnt serve any purpose.. Transparent TV screens or public AD displays on the other hand can have a use case.. Transparent TV screens can easily integrate wiht you walls and or table..
