Wearables need to A) look good. Phones aren't something you wear. B) overcome the stigma against wearing a large screen. C) last long enough to not be annoying or go dead midway through the day. D) work in bright sunlight, survive harsh environments, etc. I honestly don't see watches replacing phones. Not now, not ever. They will become a very good tool to help use of phones, but I can't see it going further than that. It will become a "Tracker" that you can see and monitor your day and life through, where the phone is a "portal" to the internet and to other people.
