What would be needed for a smartphone is a more powerful power plug and 
an antenna connector.  No smartphone has accessible antenna connectors, 
even if lesser smart phones had that in the past.

With an antenna connector one could plug much bigger, powerful and 
sensitive antennas which could talk even to Mars if so they wanted.

So, rather than building these huge ears for smartphones one would use 
the existing ears that connect to smartphones by 5G.
