Phones in Japan used to receive actual TV. Well, slightly different, but still directly from the waves rather than the internet. Phones used to receive AM and FM, too. | ||

Some still can! Usually more low-mid teir devices. Some of the higher end ones (such as my phone, which is how I know this) have the AM/FM signal processor built into their SoC, but the pins aren't wired to an antena. | ||
