IS THIS THE TWILIGHT OF THE SMARTPHONE?

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

The dominance of the smartphone, largely unchanged since the first iPhone in 2007, is being challenged by AI-driven concepts from tech leaders like Jony Ive and OpenAI, aiming to create more intuitive, screenless, and ambient computing experiences. While some believe we may soon shift to new AI-powered devices like smart glasses or wearables, widespread adoption faces hurdles such as public distrust, privacy concerns, and the lack of a unifying cultural shift, suggesting we may be entering a fragmented tech era rather than a single, revolutionary replacement.
