Nokia CEO Pekka Lundmark has said that the smartphones may not stay relevant in 2030. Lundmark, during the World Economic Forum, said that 6G would arrive by the end of 2030 but it could make smartphones obsolete. He said that users will not be able to access 6G networks through smartphones but “some”of it would be built directly onto our bodies, as per Lundmark.

“By then, the smartphone as we know it today will not be the most common interface. Many of these things will be built directly into our bodies,” Lundmark said during the event. Although he did not specify what kind of devices would replace smartphones in our lives, he said that stuff like smart glasses and the devices that are worn on the face will be preferred more.

What Lundmark is saying may not make sense to us right now because we cannot practically imagine leading a life without smartphones, but companies like Elon Musk-led Nuralink are working on devices that can be implanted into the brain. Such devices can be used for communication with machines and other people.

So, Lundmark's prediction that smartphones would become obsolete by the time the 6G networks arrive could also come true. In 2021, Nueralink even shared a video where a macaque was seen playing Ping Pong with mind. The idea behind Neuralink’s video was to show that using its technology, people with neurological conditions will be able to control phones or computers remotely.
