Zuckerberg: AR glasses will replace smartphones and become the mainstream tool.

On September 27, according to media reports, Meta held its annual Meta Connect conference and announced the latest progress made in the fields of virtual reality, artificial intelligence, and the rapidly growing smart glasses, including a new prototype of augmented reality glasses named Orion.

Subsequently, in an interview, Zuckerberg said that Meta has spent 5 billion dollars developing AR glasses and firmly believes that they will eventually replace smartphones and become the mainstream tool.

However, Zuckerberg said that people will not give up their phones quickly. Just as when mobile phones became the main computing platform, we did not completely give up computers.

He believes that people will start to do more things with glasses and keep their phones in their pockets more often. Of course, this does not mean that computers or mobile phones will soon withdraw from the historical stage. Instead, the three will each perform their own functions.

In addition, with the progress of technology, glasses are also expected to be powered by wearable devices on the wrist or other innovative methods, further enhancing their portability and battery life. AR glasses will gradually rise as the main medium for us to conduct computing and interaction.
