Well, as promised, we are talking foldable this week. The excitement is palpable, and it looks like the rest of our mod team have already started the conversation here. Go check it out.

I honestly don't know very much about foldable phones, so I'll let the rest of our (very smart and knowledgeable) mod team handle this one this week. :)

Last thing for future reference at the end of the week, we also have a great thread discussing foldables here too, go check it out if you want more great discussions.

I agree with you. Maybe I meant the next doable step. I think we are too far from smart glasses that can replace phones. Specially at low cost

I disagree. 350 xreal are pretty good.

It's just mirroring your screen. Yeah it's not going to be as good as native and nothing compared to apple. It's the next steps which I think should be modular.

Wearables.

Glasses, hearable. Which is just a hearing aid but better and smart watch wrist band. With the phone tying everything together.

Obviously will near near perfect latency and much more powerful batteries. Plus some kind of wireless charging for all devices.

Screen should obviously be on glasses. Just makes sense. Only need a viewing platform don't need anything else from it. Leave grunt in phone or computer box. It streams to watch glasses wrists and hearable.

Wrist can show small information, maybe reply to easy message and give notifications. Hearable is music and audio playback. And anything you need to view is from glasses

I wouldn't change a phone for glasses, but maybe I am a minority

[–] Mojojojo1993@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why ? Is not really the phone change though. It's just the way you view content. From laptops to phones to whatever is next. We view data so going straight to eyes would cut out middle man

Fair enough. Good point.

Maybe they will get significantly better.
