I’ve been thinking about whether AR smart glasses could take over for smartphones… it seems possible, but only if certain things happen. Smartphones were once super expensive and only for the rich, but then they got cheaper and easier to use. Plus, developers started making cool apps, which really got people on board. Now I’m wondering if AR glasses can follow that path. What do you all think?
Totally agree! If AR glasses become affordable and have a ton of apps, then why not? But I’m curious about how they’d handle communication.
Yeah, like with real-time translations? Both people would need the same app to communicate smoothly.
Exactly! Just like how everyone needed a smartphone to use apps like WhatsApp. It’s all about that network effect.
I think it’ll take a while. Right now, AR glasses are still kinda niche. They need killer apps to get people excited.
For sure! What kind of apps do you think would make them a must-have?
Maybe gaming or AR navigation? That could really change how we use tech on the go.
I’ve seen people using Meta Quest for VR stuff… do you think AR glasses will become a similar trend?
Definitely! If developers jump on board like they did with smartphones, it could take off.
I’m not convinced yet. AR glasses need to prove they can do more than just cool tricks. They need real utility!
True, but think about how smartphones started… they were just fancy phones until apps made them essential.
I’m excited to see where this goes! If they can integrate into daily life like smartphones did, I’m all for it.
