Embedded is a very wide field.
It includes anything from thinks like (home) routers and TV set-top boxes to <8MHz 8bit processors.
Embedded devices which have a UI which is not just some simple segment display (e.g. touch screen) are today not seldomly comparable with low end smartphones and tend to
not be battery based.
I mean think about how cheap a 1+GHz ARM chip has become today.
