No, NFC doesn't use much battery. If you compare to Bluetooth, Bluetooth uses more.
In terms of battery consumption, NFC is completely off unless the device is on and unlocked. When it is on consumption is very low. NFC is also accounted for 0.5% of power consumption.
Given that it's disabled when the screen is off, you're looking at less than that averaged over regular use of your phone.
still if our screen on is >3 hours, then that means batty usage will increase and WILL not register as NFC usage.
aka ur battery will drain and will have lesser power to use.
and lesser power means harder time for us as gnexus ardy is challenging to keep a full day if u utilise it
BTW, where u got the 0.5% power consumption statistics?
and also, there is an option of use NFC with screen off, which i use when im overseas studying so i can tap my wallet to wifi on and set to vibrate. no on messing around bizness

Interested of buying NFC tags? I am selling NFC tags. Feel free to click on my signature to know more about NFC tags

I am preety sure everybody here saw ur post.
this is not a sales thread, itz a nexus thread (though we discuss many off topic stuff)
but if we are interested in ur product we will visit ur website,WTS page, FB etc.
also we use NFC here so it is kinda stupid to tell us how to use it
btw, i don't see the point of paying RM7 for 1 tag, kinda exp, and it does the same thing as my old credit/debit/uni/pass cards which im am using overseas and here.
unless u can justify ur price, and the advantages over the use of credit cards, im not sure weather to buy it
Note: i can walk to any bank overseas, ask for an extra debit card for free and they will post it over and u don't need to activate it. aka. free NFC card for ur wallet, to tap on the go.
