@Jacktris Yeah, I want one for my phone so I can also use it as my universal remote as well. It's kinda annoying that cheap smartphones don't have it. Even NFC is still limited to expensive models.
SIGH, I do hope smartphone manufacturers has started putting NFC to cheap the ones. It's pretty much needed now after what happened with the pandemic.
@nomadicengi Actually I believe a lot of Android smartphones have them. I believe Huawei's flagship phones have them. I'm not sure about the others though.
@Jacktris I do remember that there's not a lot of smartphones (Even flagships of famous brands) uses IR now. I did check last year when I tried looking for a replacement for a remote and there's not a lot. The one thing smartphonemanufacturers are doing now is Type C USB, biometrics and wireless charging. NFC is still pretty limited but with the pandemic, it should continue rising in the few years.
