Correction on that, the lithium polymers such as in modern cellphones are a
fair bit different. NMC was used in non-LiPo cells for early mobile devices,
however, was a thing in many variants.
NMC can still be found in things like handheld power tools.
Today, Li-Po (Lithium Polymer) and LCO (Lithium Cobalt Oxide) are
typical options for mobile devices.
I was thinking more along the lines of things like early laptops that switched
off nicad/nimh while looking at devices on my desk
Back when we spent quite a bit of cash on camcorders, we experienced
plenty of NiMH batteries. It's quite an inferior battery, but it served
its purpose well, at the time.
I still find NiMH batteries shipping in modern gear today, e.g., low-end
electric toothbrushes. I generally avoid these where possible, and buy
Lithium-based toothbrushes :-).
