Was recently reading about Project Ara, the modular smartphone project by Google/Motorola [1]. Would have liked to see a few more iterations of the idea. Something more customizable than what we have today without having to take the phone apart.

This was a huge idea. A lot of companies tried to develop modules for it. This could have been the modern equivalent of the PC. But Google killed the child, before it could say "mama".
It would have been very thick, too thick to compete.
