With so many functions supported by modern
smartphones, they have become something more than a phone, they are our every
day assistant. And even though some features like fingerprint sensors or Face
ID are trendying right now, other technologies exist far earlier. Like NFC for
example. NFC (short for Near Field Communication) means close distance wireless
communication. It allows non-contact point-to-point data transmission between
electronic devices. Normally the distance is within 10cm. When talking about
NFC, many users may think of the bus card function. But besides being a bus or
metro card, there are many other practical functions.
Even data transfer is easier via NFC. Put two
smartphones that both have NFC back to back, then transfer data like music,
photos or contacts. This is faster than Bluetooth since you have to pair them
before transferring data. You can even create custom actions using NFC tags.
For example, put an NFC tag on the door of a meeting room. Everyone entering for
the meeting scans the tag with their smartphone and it enter mute mode. Lastly,
you can receive or download information from the internet and then use it for
payment or entrance guard control. For example, you can set a specific SMS to
the mobile phone of a housekeeping personnel to control the entrance
authorization of your home.
NFC function is becoming a standard configuration in
smartphones to offer more convenience to mobile users. Besides NFC function,
Oukitel K10 also stands out due to the Helio P23 SoC, 6GB RAM and 64GB of
storage. Its killer feature, of course, is the 11.000mAh battery together with
the dual camera setups in front and back. Also, there is a 6″ FHD 18:9 display
with full-screen design and runs Android 7.1.1 out-of-the-box. According to the
company, the K10 will hit the market in January. More information will be soon
available on their official website.
