Apple does have a very anti-cooperative business practices that which goes against the spirit of cooperation of communism. Would a company like Apple event exist in a post-capitalist world?

By “a company like Apple”, I mean a company that it is extremely secretive, doesnt open source anything and doesnt cooperate with any other companies, and tries to make everything proprietary and have closed ecosystems.

DPRK has internally developed smartphones (possibly in collaboration with China) that work just fine, so...

Or do they mean that the invention of smartphones requires capitalism? Also unlikely, plenty of innovation in technology comes from socialist countries. Including the original cell phone.
