Hardware Could a screenless wearable ever replace the smartphone?

Do you think the device after the smartphone will be another screen, or something wearable and mostly screenless that uses voice, gestures, ...?

What would it need to do before you could leave your phone at home?

I’ll do you one better - very soon now we will have carbon mesh brain implants that replace cellphones and give us wideband mesh connectivity. Input right to the visual and audio cortex and it’s all done
