Mark Zuckerberg Announces the End of Smartphones and the Rise of Their Revolutionary Replacement – The Daily Galaxy –Great Discoveries Channel
Is the smartphone era nearing its end? Mark Zuckerberg believes so, unveiling a bold vision for the future of personal tech. In his latest prediction, Zuckerberg hints at a revolutionary device that could soon replace mobile phones altogether. With major players like Meta and Apple investing billions into this cutting-edge innovation, the shift might happen sooner than you think.Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta, has predicted a radical shift in personal technology: smart glasses will replace smartphones as the primary device for communication and connectivity within the next decade. This transformative vision comes at a time when major tech companies, including Apple and Meta, are ramping up their investments in augmented reality (AR) and wearable technology. If Zuckerberg’s forecast proves accurate, this evolution could redefine how we interact with digital content and connect with one another.For almost 30 years, smartphones have been at the heart of modern life. These devices have revolutionized communication, navigation, entertainment, and productivity. From the Motorola StarTAC in the 1990s to the iPhone era that began in 2007, the evolution of mobile technology has been extraordinary. Today, billions of people rely on smartphones for work, socializing, and daily tasks.However, the market is maturing. Sales growth has plateaued, and innovation has slowed. Each new smartphone generation introduces incremental improvements rather than groundbreaking changes, leaving many to wonder: is there a better way to integrate technology into our lives? The answer may lie in smart glasses.While smartphones remain indispensable, their limitations are becoming apparent:These drawbacks have prompted researchers and tech companies to explore alternatives that provide similar functionality without the constraints.Smart glasses offer a fundamentally different way of interacting with technology. By integrating digital interfaces into the physical world through AR, they aim to:Several major companies are driving the development of smart glasses, including:These companies are not only building hardware but also designing ecosystems of apps, services, and tools that will make smart glasses practical and indispensable.The viability of smart glasses as a smartphone alternative depends on technological advancements in several key areas:AR overlays virtual information onto the real world. For smart glasses, this means projecting everything from emails to navigation directions onto a transparent screen. Advanced AR engines like Meta’s Presence Platform and Apple’s RealityKit are making these experiences more seamless and intuitive.To succeed, smart glasses need to be lightweight, stylish, and long-lasting. Companies are working to shrink components like displays, processors, and batteries without compromising performance. Innovations in microLED technology and low-power chipsets are critical to achieving this balance.Voice commands and AI assistants will play a central role in making smart glasses easy to use. Advanced natural language processing (NLP) enables devices to understand complex queries, while context-aware AI can proactively deliver relevant information without being prompted.Smart glasses rely on constant connectivity to deliver real-time information. With 5G networks expanding worldwide, these devices will benefit from faster, more reliable data transfer, enabling seamless cloud-based services.Mark Zuckerberg has made it clear that he views smart glasses as the successor to smartphones. He envisions a world where, by the 2030s:Zuckerberg’s vision is rooted in the belief that computing should be “natural” and that technology should blend into the background of daily life rather than dominate attention.The potential shift from smartphones to smart glasses represents more than just a technological leap—it signals a profound change in how we integrate the digital and physical worlds. If Zuckerberg’s vision becomes reality, the 2030s could mark the beginning of a new era where technology becomes less intrusive and more intuitive.As we move closer to this future, one thing is certain: the race to create the perfect smart glasses will drive innovation across the tech industry, reshaping our relationship with technology in ways we are only beginning to imagine.Got a reaction?

As a lifelong glasses wearer – I can assure you that the 10-year period that I was able to wear contact lenses was liberating and I was not best pleased when I had to go back t glasses for medical reasons.No more privacy if you have to interact with AR with voice.Thirty years? What are you smoking. The first smartphone was the iPhone, realeased in 2007 (less than 19 years ago), and smartphones remained a luxury for their first few years. Smartphone adoption reached 50% in 2012 (less than 13 years ago). Initial attempts to get regular folks to wear AR goggles have been failures. Will they take off at some point? Who knows.I do not wear glasses now and I do not have any sight issues that need correction, therefor I do not want to wear a pair of glasses in the future. I would rather put a phone in my pocket than walk around with a pair of glasses just in case someone wants to contact me.what a clever way to sneak an ad inToday’s News Flash!!! ZuckerBurger and Muskrat are as stupid as they are rich!!!Placing that gadget on your face will expose your brain directly thru the optic nerve to EMF . THATS WHY WE USE SPEAKER to converse on the phone so that EMF radiation is not next to our ears.Delusional, dreams. If you really want to do anything online there is no substitute for a desktop with a large monitor. Laptops and smartphones are just cheap substitutes. This kind of thing is just a novelty. Sorry Zuch, AR/VR is not coming this decade either.I find it difficult to believe the majority of people will want to walk around with a pair of glasses on their face. My phone I can put away, it goes in my pocket. Glasses sitting on my face? Always there. But somehow considered “less intrusive?” I would be more likely to leave my phone for a decent smartwatch, if any of the manufacturers would MAKE one. The smartwatch should be able to replace the phone, not require me to have two devices with me, watch AND phone. I think this is why the smartwatch hasn’t taken off as a needed “wearable.”Dude, you isolated 50% of your potential buyers. Then you tossed in a little quiet racism and sexist B’s and you have killed probably 70%. You will need more than this junk ware to save an already failing META. Guess who isn’t there to save you this time.Big tech pushing this nonsense on the consumer that we didn’t ask for. All we want is free healthcare and affordable groceries.As someone who wears glasses, this guy is delusional thinking that users are going to prefer to wear glasses all the time instead of phones.I’ll opt out. It’s a dystopian vision, especially if the device will eventually replace personal computers. Think of its usefulness to the sociopaths who want to control people for personal gain. Is this a sneaky step toward leaving personal computers in the dust? The glasses sound much more intrusive than a phone for someone who is not addicted to a phone. How much more distracting a device could be conceived? I cannot see any benefits, but potentially great harm done to kids who need exposure to great ideas so they can develop critical thinking skills.do you know how many pairs of glasses ive lost? im just going back to my flip phone eff this crap.This is the dumbest idea ive heard in a long time….I got contact lenses because I didn’t want to deal with glasses any longer. Adding digital functionality to them will not change that preference.I have used smart glasses and find them extremely useful even without AI. If they where less bulky and easy to get prescription lenses into as well as voice responsive connected AI assistant, my life would be perfect.I wear glasses and how my sight is, I don’t see how their vision would make things work. I also raise grave concern for these sorts of things as it’s not wise to try and warp a fantasy world with the real world. Things in life are twisted enough already. I fear inventions like this are only going to make things worse for the world rather than better. There are still millions in the world who go hungry, yet still if these tech giants were to have any form of heart and want a better world, they would first look out for everyone by wiping the debts out everywhere.Comment Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
