The first Nokia Lumia smartphones with NFC arriving this Fall
- Nokia Lumia phone
While a lot of people remain skeptical about the Nokia-Microsoft partnership, the Finns are working on more and more products with Windows Phone. In a recent interview, Nokia’s vice president announced, that the company is currently working on their first devices featuring NFC technology and even hinted at the possibility of wireless charging. The first Lumia devices with NFC are probably going to arrive this October, when an update is expected, which should bring support for the technology in Microsoft’s mobile platform. According to Nokia’s VP, we should also expect the company to lose the micro USB cover and perhaps even the port itself, which may be interpreted as a possible technology for wireless charging, something, which already exists in HP’s phones. B. A.
Nokia will not deliver NFC on phones before this fall? Are they serious? Why the heck should I buy a phone TODAY knowing it will be outdated this fall and it will not be possible to use NFC in the future as the current models do not ship with the chip built in?
Is there a good reason? NO. Why spending 600 Dollars on a phone which is prone to be replaced in 7 months?
Epic fail.
