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.

    Same. It’s one thing if I’m calling my 7-year old niece that lives 100 miles away but I miss her and want to see her face. It’s something else entirely when I’m on a call I don’t want to be on in the first place, listening to people I don’t need to hear from who aren’t even talking to me.

      My favorite part is where nobody is making eye contact because they are all looking at the screen instead f the camera.

      Well, that or the one person who is having some weird technical issue that keep blasting the whole meeting with strange noises.
