NFC technology (Near Field Communication) is a wireless communication standard that can be mutually connected new each other. This NFC became popular through subcontractors for payment of mobile payment method.
Apple's latest Smartphone, the iPhone 5 NFC technology reportedly does not support such as previously thought. This was confirmed by leakage from the Apple Pro photo showing the mysterious component that originally estimated is NFC chip.
In the meantime, the people of technology site that analyzes the Anandtech suspected of being the NFC chip is not NFC chip, so the iPhone 5 likely does not support NFC.
"Considering the back of the metal from the new iPhone especially, it is very unlikely that the NFC exists in this generation iPhone. In fact, given the very small space at the top and bottom of the glass windows dedicated to RF, "said Anandtech.
As reported by CNET (28/08/2012), antenna NFC alone requires sufficient space and solid and would be possible if the NFC chip is placed on the top or bottom of the device.
"With NFC antennas at the top or bottom of the extreme, harmony with non-iPhone (e.g., token or payment tag reader) will be more difficult," added AnandTech.
NFC technology was applied on its own became popular upscale phones such as S3 and some Samsing Galaxy phone. NFC is widely used for mobile payment, transaction and some other functions passbook savings.
Until the current deployment in NFC mobile payment transactions are indeed not much, so perhaps Apple hasn't felt the need to bring NFC
on the iPhone 5 iPhone 5 is not Support. NFC?
