I have a few devices that I can get into but havenβt been able to find out which chip does what. Any tips?

Google whatever is printed on the chip.
Also learn the basic components of any system, and which components each device would need.

or just post a picture here, people might help you ;)
I found that chatgpt is really good at telling you what is a component by just telling it the part name, it can be a bit quicker than looking for the datasheet
