NFC (Near Field Communication) is transforming how we interact with the world around us — from smart business cards to contactless payments and smart home automation.
If you're wondering whether your phone can scan or interact with NFC tags, you're in the right place.
We’ve compiled a complete, up-to-date list of smartphones across all major brands and operating systems that support NFC tag reading. Whether you're looking to use NFC for quick data sharing, smart gadgets, or product tags like the ones we offer at Aurea3D, this guide has you covered.
What Is NFC?
NFC is a wireless communication technology that allows two devices to exchange data over short distances — usually just a tap!
Many phones now include NFC by default, and it's especially useful when paired with custom NFC tags like our NFC keychains and cards.
