"Better" really depends on your opinion of what's going on. The problem with someone stuck behind a camera isn't the camera, it's the act and result of sticking yourself behind it: Making that easier and less apparently-intrusive doesn't take away the problem, it means people will be doing exactly the same thing (probably more people, since it'll be more convenient) and you'll still have the same reduced fraction of their attention, you just might not realize it right away.
At best they'll have to fidget with the device less and might be marginally less distracted, but this is still just making the problem easier to cause. You're happy to have all the media in the world at your fingertips, and that's understandable; however, now everyone can have all that media right in front of them, between them and you, very easily.
Maybe I'm just very short-sighted (I do have an awful prescription, har har), but I see absolutely no way this could do anything except make the problem you describe worse.
