Curious, is it a normal practice to have the NFC antenna embedded in the battery, rather than the device itself?

QUOTE(hooh888 @ Sep 19 2013, 10:24 PM) don't know if this is normal but it's to prevent problems like note 2, whereby the nfc chip is on the battery cover, so if you change casing that replaces the battery cover you will lose the nfc chip capabilities unless that casing you buy has nfc chip too. Ah..ic, make sense. Thanks!   Any reason why it isn't embedded in the phone itself (like the radio,gps etc. antennas?) |

QUOTE(adriancs @ Sep 19 2013, 10:38 PM) NFC needs to have a coil coming very close contact to other NFC antennas. It also needs to be of a certain shape. The antenna is very different from other RF antennas on the phone. If its embedded underneath the battery then it is too far away, and is out of spec as far as the NFC for mobiles spec is concerned. Ic...smart move then; putting it on the battery. thanks for the explanation |

QUOTE(vinnilaa @ Sep 21 2013, 10:11 PM) Guys, just wondering... why spigen screen protector is so expensive... I saw RM69... usual SP is not tht expensive Actually the price quoted on Spigen's website is about RM100+ per unit. I think the RM69 one you are looking at is the OEM version.EDIT: My bad, I didn't see the "Screen protector" bit. Pls disregard comment.

QUOTE(joytest @ Sep 21 2013, 11:48 PM) It's not going to be a crapple to apple comparison, but according to Anandtech, it's the best chip ever to date. That does deserve some respect to fruitco for this innovation. I read that very lengthy article as well. Regarding the 64-Bit Chip conversion: I thought Apple's strategy of considering future implications to the business and the iOS ecosystem was quite brilliant. (The strategy is essentially to get developers to factor in 64-Bit processor-related compatibilities when developing apps from this point onwards. This'll ease future migration) |

QUOTE(joytest @ Sep 21 2013, 11:58 PM) Still, Anand himself expects the transition to take at least 2 years. He's probably right, coz the ARM v8 ISA used by fruitco contains both the 64bit and 32bit instruction set for backwards compatibility. Devs will take a while to adjust, and until some directive for going full 64bit instructions are issued, I think 32bits will be here to stay. Agreed on the timeline. However, one'll have to admit Apple's strategy of starting the migration before it's actually due is brilliant. Will definitely pay off in the future; if there isn't any new disruptive tech in the interim  |
