NFC is getting a range boost

theverge.com Jess Weatherbed 2025-09-13 08:12:11

The next version of the Near Field Communication (NFC) standard aims to make it easier to make payments, pair devices, and unlock doors using your phone or smartwatch. The most notable improvement is a boost to the distance of contactless connections from 0.5cm to 2cm, extending the range by x4. The NFC Release 15 standard update means NFC chips shouldn’t need to be as precisely aligned with terminals to register a connection, which is especially beneficial for users who have to fumble with sma

I still recommend this OnePlus Watch over competing Androids - especially at this price

When OnePlus announced the OnePlus Watch in 2021, I immediately placed an order because the hardware looked compelling and was priced at $159. After a few weeks, I returned the device due to its sheer lack of offering anything of value. The original OnePlus Watch was powered by the Real-Time Operating System (RTOS), which was perfectly fine, as many smartwatches run lean and mean. However, last year'
