While the smartphone has become an essential tool in our daily lives, it could soon disappear in favor of a gadget equipped with cutting-edge technology.
No one will have missed it, it is difficult to part with your cell phone. It must be said that the smartphone has become an essential everyday tool thanks to its many increasingly innovative features.
This allows us to call, check our emails, do research on the web or even manage our schedule. Result: it is almost impossible to imagine our life without this gadget.
However, a world without cell phones is a possible scenario. Indeed, the smartphone could soon disappear in favor of a high-tech device. In any case, this is what Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta and founder of Facebook, says.

This little-known gadget could replace the smartphone
When we think of connected objects, we necessarily think of smartwatches. Launched in 2012, these smartwatches offer many features. Some of them have the same functions as smartphones.
Although these electronic bracelets are very successful all over the world, they still remain far behind mobile phones. However, another gadget could well overshadow them.

As Mark Zuckerberg points out, smart glasses will revolutionize the world in the years to come.
Remember! In 2021, the tech genius teamed up with Ray-Ban to launch Ray-Ban Meta, a collection of smart glasses equipped with a five-megapixel camera, two speakers and three integrated microphones.
«Smart glasses will become the next big computing platform“, declared the American boss at the time.

Today, the businessman is saying the same thing. Recently, the latter spoke about the future of connected glasses on X (formerly Twitter).
“You’re probably already sitting at your desk in front of your computer, but you still take your phone out of your pocket to do something that you could just as easily do on your PC,” he explains.
Before adding:
“We will reach a point where your smartphone stays in your pocket more often than in your hands. This is expected to happen sometime in the 2030s. Although some tasks could be done more efficiently on a phone, users will prioritize convenience glasses for their daily life.
