Capitalism doesn’t mean the use of currency and buyer-seller markets. Capitalism means private ownership of the means of production. If apple was owned by the workers of the company instead of the stock market shareholders, then apple would still keep making iPhones. The only difference would be that the workers get all of the company’s profit, instead of that profit going to people who “own” the company.
Workers make smartphones - they design, assemble, and sell them. Capitalism is the system under which all of the above occurs from start to finish.
Not to mention, for them to work they require a service network of towers and infrastructure, data centers, etc.
It’s not like Johann the Blacksmith can fire up the forge and hammer out an iPhone to feed his family for the winter.
