Near Field Communication (NFC) lets you establish a connection between two compatible devices by simply tapping them together. We’ve already been using this technology in our door access or subway cards, and now it has also made its way into most new smart devices. You can still choose to pair your NFC-enabled headset using the conventional way via Bluetooth®, but since NFC is a really nifty way to do the same thing in just a single tap – so why not?
Note: While NFC is being used to establish the Bluetooth pairing, wireless music streaming still requires Bluetooth connectivity.
