AR needs to kill the smartphone screen soon. Make my phone a keyboard and an external processor for my wearables.

Welcome to the Luddite convention here.

It's so gimmicky compared to something actually useful, like better battery.

Insanely true, I didn't give a shit about 90% of the features on my new phone once my old one broke down and I got a Pixel 8, but I was delighted to go from a worn-out 12 hour battery life to a 64 hour battery life. I would actively like to uninstall any sort of current AI function from my phone if it could increase my battery longevity by even 1%.

Also: ew, Apple.

Edit: Really annoyed it doesn't have a headphone jack though

I'd actually be willing to accept a loss in battery life to not have a device be infested, but luckily that's not a likely trade-off
