Computers, laptops, phones, and tablets still have a small circuit that’s on, even when they’re off. This circuit is basically responsible for keeping the clock running. On desktop computers, this is typically powered by a CR2032 battery on the motherboard. On laptops, smartphones, and tablets, this is often a rechargeable battery that is smaller than the main battery.
