This is the third post in our series on Apple iPhone support for NFC tags. It’s spring again, which means the rumor mill for the upcoming new iPhone 8 and iOS 9 is in full swing. This year is different though as it’s the 10th anniversary of the iPhone, so consumers are expecting something amazing.
Apple just had their annual September big event, this time announcing the iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus and Apple Watch Series 2. So how are they? Depends on where you’re coming from.
It’s spring again and the Apple NFC rumor mill is heating up. In the fall of 2014 Apple added an NFC controller to the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus to support the Apple Pay mobile payment system.
Over the last couple of months I have been using the new Android Pay as well as started to experience increasingly frequent use of credit card EMV payment process during retail purchases. This experience has brought up a thought…….Will the smartcard EMV adoption in the US actually help accelerate phone-based NFC payment use?
