Someone got stuff wrong about Discovery era combadges.. They never held phasers. Those are stored in a portable pattern buffer worn on the wrist. That same pattern buffer can also hold EVA suits and first-aid gear like dermal regenerators. The 'tricom' badge does however fully replace PADDs and Tricorders. It also plays host to an emergency transporter and interacts with a ship's own transporter system for seamless site-to-site transports.

Lawl.. Maybe don't put the answer the the question you're posing right in the thumbnail graphics?

Anyone ingly familiar with Trek can see her collar pips and spoil the whole article. But thanks for the clickbait?
