The audio circuit can transmit the electric signal converted from the received audio data to the loudspeaker, and the electric signal is converted into a sound signal by the loudspeaker to be output; on the other hand, the microphone converts the collected sound signal into an electric signal, the electric signal is received by the audio circuit and then converted into audio data, and the audio data is processed by the audio data output processor and then sent to another mobile phone through the radio frequency circuit or output to the memory for further processing.

WiFi belongs to short-distance wireless transmission technology, and the mobile phone can help a user to receive and send e-mails, browse webpages, access streaming media and the like through a WiFi module, and provides wireless broadband internet access for the user.

The processor is a control center of the mobile phone, is connected with each part of the whole mobile phone by various interfaces and lines, and executes various functions and processes data of the mobile phone by running or executing software programs and/or modules stored in the memory and calling the data stored in the memory, thereby carrying out the integral monitoring on the mobile phone.
