When asked about it, Lundmark said, "First of all, it will definitely happen. I was talking about 6G earlier, which [will happen] around 2030. I would say that by then, definitely, 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 didn't specify how this technology would be incorporated into the human body. Still, the most obvious means of replacing some smartphone technology with body augmentations is microchipping humans so they can tap their wrists and hands rather than scanning censors or QR codes with a smartphone, as they already do in Sweden.

As an aside, many Swedes chose to do this as a means of convenience after being forced to provide proof of vaccination towards the tail-end of the COVID pandemic.

Elon Musk's Neuralink, which is described as "ultra-high bandwidth brain-machine interfaces to connect humans and computers," is an even more radical and all-encompassing means of replacing smartphone technology.
