Fair enough. Good point.
Maybe they will get significantly better.

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
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
Why would bigger hardware be the next step. Isn’t that kinda dumb ?
Next step are wearables.
Next logical step is a bigger viewing platform. Screens are dumb, but we need to see information, so really smart glasses or projectiors should be next step
Why would they be next steps ?
Precisely. Yet people are buying.
Niche
Yup. I get that. Always a niche and people buy unnecessary products. I still don’t get tablets at all. Wouldn’t buy one. See no reason for their continued existence. I’m wrong. Like most things people baffle me.
Tablet is a larger screen. That’s it. It’s an inferior laptop and inferior phone. Only use I could think of would again be game or watch films. However once again a tv fulfils that role by a country mile.
Only reason would be as you said portability, however in that sense I’d expect most adults would require a laptop for work and so would be able to dual purpose that.
If you didn’t have a laptop and had to travel frequently then tablet would be a cheaper alternative.
Only works in business where nobody is working 5 days anyway.
Where it would be best uses would be healthcare. But can’t reduce hours due to ls k if staff.
Need a global rethink. Made up money here bs where you move a number on a spreadsheet back and forth are worthless to humanity. Need more teachers care workers hospital staff.
Not more middle managers who do absolutely nothing.
that exists a laptop or tablet why make a huge phone
You can use a laptop or a tablet. A big phone doesn’t bring anything new to the table. It’s just a sub category. Most people don’t need a tablet a laptop a phone and a large phone. Some might get something from it.
Only situation I’d see would be watching on a larger screen and maybe gaming. However I’d never need that as I have a tv. So why would I use a small screen? I’m sure it’s fun but I can never see it as something worth dropping 2k on.
Gaming laptop or a TV for gaming on. I wouldn’t play on my phone as it’s just a massive downgrade. But each to their own. Now a screen projected on my glasses. Sure.
Why would you ever play two idle games ? Sounds like an awful thing to do.
No. That’s not what I want nor need.
Not interested in expensive gimmicks. How does it improve the experience? Now a phone that is a snap bracelet. Lives on my wrist. Sign me up.
Unfortunately no. Had moved from Google to brave. However I hear brave is just as bad so now moving to Firefox
