Why does short-range tech seem limited?

Why does short-range tech seem limited?

Because of coverage and security issues.

NFC and BLE seem to solve the problem.

✅ They enhance user experiences.
✅ They connect devices quickly.
✅ They ensure data security.

Each has unique strengths.

Your choice depends on what you need.

NFC is for short-range communication.
It’s common in contactless payments.
Devices must be close, just centimeters apart.

BLE offers long-range communication.
⚡ It’s used in IoT devices and smart homes.
Despite its range, it uses very little power.

Here’s what matters when comparing them:

NFC works at close range.
BLE works at 10s of meters.

NFC is low-power but drains more over time.
BLE uses much less power and is more efficient.

NFC has built-in security for payments.
BLE needs extra encryption for security.

NFC is slower at transferring data.
BLE is faster, especially over long distances.

NFC is best for secure, close-range tasks.
BLE is perfect for long-range.

So, NFC and BLE aren’t rivals.
They work together.
