We use where to FILTER in SQL and here we use the Filter function (and you can filter even without writing the Filter function (as mentioned below rightly )as well but the moral of the story is you are filtering 🙂 )

 DAX Filter - CALCULATE function (tutorialspoint.com)

Smart Phones Sales =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( Sales[Price] ),
FILTER (
Sales,
Sales[product] in { "iPhone","Samsung","Hawaii"}
))

 

In SQL you would say WHERE 

[product] in { "iPhone","Samsung","Hawaii"}
