Nokia has a new phone, the 6216 classic NFC phone. It’s the third phone that uses that NFC or Near Field Communications technology but it’s also the first one that will allow carriers to build NFC services straight into your SIM card. NFC technology will let devices transfer data between them by simply tapping them together. By data we mean image files, video files, contacts, music and everything else you can imagine.
Nokia’s head of NFC, Jeremy Belostock, had this to say about the phone:
The Nokia 6216 classic will be amongst the first commercial devices in the market complying with operator requirements using the SIM card in connection to secure transactions with Near Field Communications. With the Nokia 6216 classic in your pocket and the ticketing applications on the SIM you can replace the multitude of cards in your wallet. Having the applications on the SIM consumers can bring their secure applications to their next Nokia NFC enabled phone.
The phone itself will offer you quad-band GSM, dual-band 3G, a 2-inch QVGA display, a 2 megapixel camera, microSDHC support, Bluetooth and about 22MB of memory. The phone will be available later this year for around $195. Would you swap your smartphone with an NFC phone like the 6216?
