VR is the first step to AR, which is generally thought of as what will mature into what will replace mobile.

In the meantime VR is still pretty nascent - we'll see Oculus Touch launched in a couple months, broad PSVR adoption. It is still early days.

I don't think that VR is the first step to AR. AR (virtual content graphically overlaid on the real world) is a fundamentally different concept and the applications are different. VR puts you in a different world, AR tells you more about (or modifies) the real world.
