Phones and NFC

Bluetooth is an effective method we all use to transfer photos and files. But now Bluetooth might just become history, with the launch of the NFC technology.  In the latest Android ICS phones all you need to do to connect is tap the backs of both the phones and you will establish a contact with the other phone to transfer information.

In the new Samsung Galaxy S III, when you tap the phones together, they set up a connection via the Wi-Fi.  This will let the people keep the connection between the phones and transfer data but only if they are in the same room. Even though everything seems set they are still few creases to iron out.

Even though iPhone filed patents for this technology they haven’t spoken about when they are going to incorporate this technology into their phones. The iPhone users will have to wait with baited breaths till Apple makes an announcement as to when they will launch phones incorporated with NFC technology.
