Best smartphones with NFC module for 2020

Best smartphones with NFC module for 2020

 

The use of the latest technologies contributes to the formation of comfortable living conditions. A promising direction is the use of the function hidden under the abbreviation NFC, which ensures the exchange of information between various technical devices. For many, it remains an unsolved mystery, but after getting acquainted with the principles of work and the scope of application, there will be much less questions.

The rating of high-quality smartphones equipped with contactless data transfer modules, presented based on the preferences of users of the popular Yandex Market service in various price segments, will allow you to better know the new products of popular brands in order to choose the right model at a price that matches the capabilities.

General information about NFC technology

Principle of operation and advantages

Near Field Communication (NFC) is a technology that provides data exchange between technical devices at close (up to ten cm) distances at a high frequency.

The principle of operation is based on the use of the induction properties of the magnetic field. When two NFC-equipped devices interact, a kind of air-core transformer is created, through which data is transferred without the need for registration. The exchange rate reaches 424 kb / s.

 

Benefits:

  • high-speed information exchange between devices;
  • small size;
  • small price;
  • low energy consumption;
  • quick connection establishment.

Areas of use

Versatility allows you to realize the benefits of contactless transmission technology for:

  • conducting contactless payments;
  • use as a key from locks equipped with special readers;
  • use instead of QR codes;
  • management of products equipped with special labels.

The following devices are equipped with the module:

  • terminals;
  • smartphones;
  • smart watch;
  • cameras;
  • fitness bracelets;
  • smart rings.

Difference from Bluetooth

Despite the presence of similarities between the two technologies, there are differences:

  • with NFC at the required distance, the connection is established automatically, and for Bluetooth, you must first turn on the module, then find and select the desired device;
  • it connects in seconds and Bluetooth connects in minutes. However, when transferring large files, it is better to choose Bluetooth;
  • the range of reliable NFC connection is limited to a maximum of ten centimeters, and Bluetooth can provide communication at a distance of up to 100 meters.

Different functionality of the two technologies combined in one universal device case complements each other well.

Where is NFC hiding in the smartphone

Types and purpose

Modern modules are presented in several types, differing in size and function.

  1. NFC tag.

Made in the form of a chip attached to the body of the product. After installing additional applications, you can manage various devices, as well as make payments.

  1. NFC SIM card.

Executed in the form of a SIM card for sale by mobile operators. Allows you to carry out money transfers, observing increased security requirements.

  1. NFC antennas.

It is fastened under the cover of the device, where the back panel is removed. Allows you to manage other devices, make payments, and pay for purchases.

How to find and enable

Many developers equip devices with contactless transfer technology on Android or iOS systems. It can be found on smartphones of brands such as Samsung, Apple, etc. Finding is easy. Just a few steps are enough ^

  1. Check the instructions for the availability of NFC, as well as how to select it for use.
  2. Make sure there is an NFC logo or letter N on the back cover.

Enter the "Settings" section:

In the field "Connected devices" ("Wireless networks" or others) find the corresponding button or icon:

 

 

 

After clicking, the NFC function is turned on, in the "Settings" section, cards for contactless payments are linked, as well as applications where money is debited to pay for purchases.

After enabling the function, the smartphone can easily:

  • transfer a phone number;
  • send an image;
  • forward the document;
  • redirect friends to your favorite application;
  • report coordinates;
  • run the program on someone else's smartphone;
  • make a payment transaction;
  • concatenate with appropriate tags.

How to setup

If the function could not be found, then, apparently, the best smartphone manufacturers did not consider it necessary to use NFC technology here. Then you can buy:

  • a special label for installation under the back cover;
  • SIM card for installation in the slot.

The procedure for installing and configuring the contactless transmission module:

  1. Find a tag that is compatible with your smartphone model.
  2. Place the part under the body.
  3. Install a dedicated app.
  4. Configure the application, select the tasks to be solved.
  5. Check functionality.

If the back cover cannot be removed, a SIM card with a chip is used.

Security

Smartphones with an NFC module can both transmit and receive data. At the same time, the interception of information by unauthorized persons is limited to a small distance. The card is protected by special codes that do not allow the number to be recognized.

Often, when paying, you need to enter a smartphone code or fingerprint to confirm the transaction.

Rating of smartphones with NFC module for 2020

Devices with the best rating indicators in the Yandex Market service as of February 2020 are presented. It has both inexpensive budget models and premium smartphones.
