In android, only things like links or contacts are sent directly through NFC. For large files, it uses bluetooth or WiFi direct. The use case is really good though, if you want to transfer a file, you just hold up your phone, touch the screen, and away it goes. All the bluetooth and WiFi setup steps are hidden (but to be honest, bluetooth in android is a bit dodgy. You can't even send arbitrary files without special programs).
