A golf rangefinder or gps thingy.

Oops - almost forgot that I got one for Christmas but just haven’t used it that much.

A Scalextric? Though I got a train set instead.

A fancy watch?

Aargh, I've bitten..... I'd put it the other way round nowadays, that a smartphone is a computer with the ability to make calls :). The technical definition of a computer is an electronic device that manipulates information, or data. It has the ability to store, retrieve, and process data. Smartphones very much are computers, and listed as such on many resources

Not on my resource list they aren’t.
The word “phone” is the give away.

I didn’t say I’ve never owned a data storage or processing device. I said I’ve never owned a computer!

I was going to say anything made by Apple then remembered my very first home computer back in about 1980 was an Apple IIe.
