I mean, cool.

It's just that my early 21st century cellphone has more sensors than this 24th century device... ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™‚๏ธ

And your cellphone even costs less. (unless you've bought a flagship phone)

Can your cellphone identify the chemical composition of rocks 1000 feet underground, or scan someone for invasive pathogens, or identify lifeforms 10 KM away?

Of course not, but the 24th century ones can.
