      What? The components are the same and work exactly the same way, maybe on just less power and different thermal configurations on laptops. Meanwhile phones use a different CPU architecture (at least, I don’t know the specifics of the rest), and a completely different OS structure.

        Apple’s putting its own chips - the same chips - in both its MacBook and iPad product lines. Their iOS also shares significant architecture with macOS, and is basically a derivative thereof.

        Meanwhile, my tablet is running Windows 10 on its Intel i7 CPU.
