Is there anything that only the rich can currently afford but that everyone will have in the future?

When the very first cars were built, only the rich could afford it, but now a large part of the population (in developed countries) has one or more.

What do you think will be such an evolution in the future?

I thought we worked for decades to take moving components out of portable devices as they were the biggest point of failure?

We did. Because of that people are using their phones for too long without replacing them. This makes Samsung and Apple sad, so they make new phones fail sooner.
