NFC-enabled audio devices

Overview

Bluetooth^® and WiFi are popular technologies in wireless headphones and speakers. These technologies require the smartphone to be paired with the audio devices to enable the connection, and NFC is a simple and reliable solution for this. Tap your phone to a Bluetooth speaker or headphone, and the two are securely paired automatically, without searching for a connection or typing a code. NFC is also an excellent choice for easy pairing wireless speakers together and creating a multispeakers audio system.
