What do cell phones look like in the year 2144?
Obviously they won't have a screen anymore. They'll be pop-up displays. So if you're sitting on a train and your romantic partner sends you a steamy selfie...guess who has an audience?
Has this annoyed anyone else?
If they're tactical screens, that makes sense. But I still don't think transparent displays on personal devices will be a thing in the future.
I always saw holograms as a cinematic device rather than something we'd actually used, much like the superbright monitors that would project what was on the screen onto the the actors, which allowed the fourth wall audience more information about what's going on.
It's much like the Star Trek transporter, less a plausible technology, and more an instrument of the medium.
OK; that's starting to make sense. Thanks.
