    Anything smartphones do seems more appropriate. That stuff is hardly mentioned here.

      I understand smartphones. They are relatively simple devices.

      Apart from GPS and 5G communications which are pure black magic.

      And magnets: magic

        Simple…? Just understanding how transistors can be combined to generate a picture on a screen is crazy complex.

        Magnetic fields are a big part of smartphones in various, different uses. GPS is low tech compared to how the CPU is made.
