Acer will release its new, NFC-enabled smartphone, the Liquid Express, on November 23rd in France. The phone will also be equipped with a 3.5 inch screen, a Qualcomm MSM7227 processor running at 800MHz, a five megapixel camera with LED flash, and Android 2.3 Gingerbread.
NFC is a priority for the company, says Augustin Becquet, development director at Acer France, “because there are so many uses for the technology: payments, transport, ticketing, loyalty, cultural information, local government information… we haven’t yet begun to explore the thousands of applications that will be uncovered.
The company has stated that all of their future Android phones will include NFC capabilities as well.
