Using NFC technology to make your life easier: Xperia SmartTags
On Monday, at the 2012 International CES, we also announced some really cool SmartExtras: SmartWatch, Smart Wireless Headset Pro, and Xperia SmartTags. On this blog post, I will tell you about SmartTags, a really useful complement to our recent phone launches, Xperia S and Xperia ion.
The SmarTags are small NFC enabled tokens that work with any NFC (Near Field Communication) enabled smartphone, including Xperia S, and how they work is really simple: you just need to touch your NFC enabled smartphone to a SmartTag, and it will launch a pre-configured action or series of actions. For example, you can activate the alarm and your mute your phone by touching the SmartTag by your bed, or launch your calendar or email and increase the volume of your phone with the SmartTag on your office desk.
