Motorola Project Ara- The future of the smartphone?

Imagine a phone you would never have to replace, but still remain on the cutting-edge.  That vision could be a reality if Project Ara comes to fruition.  The project aims to create a modular smartphone build in blocks where everything is up gradable.   The phone is assembled in blocks and once one block, say the camera, becomes obsolete, you can take it off and put on a new camera. “Having your handset made up of a variety of modules means you’ll be able to purchase specific parts for your device as and when needed, one piece at a time. Scratched screen? Just buy another one. Dead battery? Click in a replacement. Faulty flash? Swap it out.” (Mogg, 2013).  The project was only recently announced so it could be a while before products come to the market, but nevertheless, this is an exciting development in the world of smartphones.
