WiFi antenna connector/placement, webcam, microphone, inverter, digitizer/touchscreen.
What are the two most common display types in a laptop screen?
LED (Light Emitting Diode) and LCD (Liquid Crystal Diode)
What is an inverter?
Inverters send power to back lights in displays that need alternating current (AC) electricity.
What is a digitizer?
A digitizer (otherwise known as a pen tablet) enables users to paint, ink, pencil, or otherwise draw on a computer.
What is a touch screen?
A touch screen is a monitor with some type of sensing device across its face that detects the location and duration of contact, usually by a finger or stylus. All touch screens then supply this contact information to the PC as though it were a click event from a mouse. Touch screens are used in situations for which conventional mouse/keyboard input is either impossible or impractical.
