I don't think geuis is saying the actual communication is unreliable, but the actions are. I.e. the NFC part works, but the whole touch to share (say a video or whatever) part has more troubles. Which is a problem even though it is just a failing of handling things hugher up the stack it makes it look like NFC is problematic.
- tjohns 13y agoThat's a fair point. The lower level stuff and NDEF format is well standardized. The higher level operations are not nearly as well standardised right now, even more so when you're dealing with large files, which will require a handoff to Bluetooth or WiFi Direct. In NFC's defense, it's only recently (4.2, Jelly Bean) that Android even supported transferring large files via Bluetooth handoff, so hopefully that stuff will improve with time.
- geuis 13y agoFair point too. I hope it does improve in time.
