    Read your own links!

    First link: “But your smartphone is not a quantum computer, yet”

    The title was a question. The answer the article you linked gave was “it doesn’t use quantum.”

    The second link was describing regular effects as having quantum origins. Which is everything! Everything everywhere has a basis in quantum mechanics.

    "Radio waves are photons, and their behavior is described by quantum electrodynamics. "

    Yes, underpinning the entire universe is quantum mechanics. The light from a campfire is photons. No one would write an article saying, “Cavemen used a sophisticated quantum light source.”

    Your claim was that smartphone motion sensors were quantum. You linked to Wikipedia about quantum sensors which did not say anything about phone sensors.

    Apple and all phone manufacturers say they use mems motion sensors.

    You were wrong. Get over yourself.

    And read the links you provide as proof.

      I never claimed that it was, quantum computers are still experimental.
      Sorry I didn’t care to read the rest, because you started off with such nonsense.

      This is also in the text:

      Also, your smartphone contains a digital camera with a CCD-sensor. This sensor is based on the photoelectric effect – which was explained by Albert Einstein by introducing quanta of light,

        I never claimed that it was, quantum computers are still experimental.

        Yet you linked the article that made that statement and then refuted it!

        Quote from the article you linked:

        https://qt.eu/applications/how-your-smartphone-uses-quantum-mechanics

        Where it gives an example of how your phone uses quantum mechanics.

        which was explained by Albert Einstein by introducing quanta of light,

        Yes a photon. Light is photons. The light from a caveman fire is photons. I already explained that.

        Can you really not see that you are wrong? Or is it THAT hard to say “ah damn, got that wrong”?
