wireless device
Untethered electronic tool
A wireless device is any electronic equipment that communicates without physical cables—smartphones, tablets, laptops with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth headphones, wireless mice.
The term emphasizes the communication method rather than the device's primary function: Please turn off all wireless devices during takeoff.
In regulatory and technical contexts, it often refers specifically to cellular phones and similar radio-transmitting equipment.
