It'll be a competition between wearable tech such as watches and glasses that can be linked to your smartphones, after that it'll soon be wearable clothing tech (Like jackets and T-shirts with boards and transistors discretely woven into the fabric/held in pockets, all cheaply produced and disposable) with augmented reality nodes on the clothing (Custom cosmetics only seen through AR devices). All of your information will be cloud based and wifi will be a common necessity.
Screen displays will be fully done with touch screen projectors so your hand can easily become your display screen or keyboard.
After that it'll be cybernetic neural shit where you can watch porn or play videogames in your head all day at work.
AR glasses with brain-computer interface and maybe some eye directional control while BCI is still in earlier stages, but eye control would be suboptimal for multitasking
AR glasses but we need several more years, maybe a decade before solid state batteries become affordable enabling light, higher density wearables without the risk of catching fire like LiPo.
We're stuck with the black slab for a while. I don't see AR being anything more than niche thing primarily used for gaming and personal consumption of media unless it were seamless and that's not going to be technologically possible any time soon. We will definitely see more neural net powered AR things that the Apple headset have, Foldables could be bigger if they were less mechanically-complicated and flimsy but it's hard seeing that actually happen. And obviously they'll be integrated into car windscreen huds and elevators and billboards and shit. But in terms a new device category, it'll probably take a decade and then someone we might have the technology to do google glass but competently this time. No clue what the timeline for cyberized peripheral nervous integrations are, but I wouldn't hold your breath for a BCI in your lifetime.
I think a hololens sized headset with high capacity solid state battery that is just an io device for your black slab in your pocket is achievable in the near future and very compelling.
while I think it's within the realm of possibility with current technology, there's no way it would be profitable as a consumer device in the near future. consider what the Apple Headset costs, remember. it's too expensive for consumer use and not robust enough for military application. I don't see it happening for at least a decade, but there could always be unexpected breakthroughs in miniaturization. no one can predict the future
Nothing-ish. They are about optimal.
You’ve already see what’s coming: glasses, watch, car. Promising, but >glasses have major physical roadblocks to viability at the moment >smartwatches get curbstomped by phones in function and form, so are basically a sidekick with a minor focus on health applications >cars also have extension-of-self status but also quickly sidekick to phones for smart functionality because obviously
Economic collapse, or a switch to CBDC to try and stave off the worst of one, and then it'll be a status symbol to be able to own any new devices that aren't a phone.

Why haven't chinks made copies of these for a few dollars?

Cool, I guess?

correct number of rings, well done

Portable processing units for a network of wearable tech (AR glasses, in ear monitors, BCI, etc).

With the release of the Rabbit R1, the future is here now.

mind upload to cybernetic brain which is augmented with digital capabilities
Whatever makes the most money.
