It's different category of computer, designed as an appliance, like my car stereo, which is also a computer. The value of Apple computers is that they're more general-purpose than a gated cell phone.
If you insist on including the iPhone, you might as well include the $39 Airpods case, or the $9 lightning to headphone jack dongle.

Practically, even a locked-down iPhone can do vastly more than a general-purpose computer could in the 1980s. (Particularly when you consider it has access to VMs on the web and now emulators.)
