[Q] Why does it say Near Field Communication on the battery?

---

I was just wondering why does it state Near Field Communication on the battery?

Cheers

The NFC chip is actually on the case of the battery, so it can be very close to the back plate of the phone.

Does this not pose a problem when buying a replacement battery? :/

Thanks for your reply

Cuz the battery also serves as an NFC chip. 2 in 1

Yes.. it will kind of pose as a problem.

Why would it cause a problem don't you just buy another battery with NFC on the battery

If you don't need NFC on your phone can't you just buy a regular battery

Depends, I've seen some claims that these batteries just have an NFC aerial and not the actual chip.
