The first Moto G had no NFC though. Don't know if this one does yet. But NFC will very soon be a 'must have' feature.

- timdierks 12y agoNFC has 'must have' next year for the last 5+ years.
- natrius 12y agoPeople have been saying that NFC will take off any day now for years. I've used Google Wallet with NFC. It's worse than handing over my credit card.

I used NFC some on my Galaxy S3, and when I was buying the Moto G, I was a bit hesitant about going to a phone without NFC. But I have not once missed not having NFC. NFC has interesting prospects, but I have yet to see a real "must have" use for it.
- mpclark 12y agoFair comment. I believe, though, that host card emulation, Android 4.4+ and tokenization are three key ideas that have come together and will put NFC into the mainstream (at last).
- ZenoArrow 12y agoI've got NFC in my current phone, never used it, never needed to. Even with both Google and Apple backing contactless payments I suspect it will take a long time before it's the norm.
