It's finally out!!! Here is the Nokia 6212 Classic cell phone with NFC technology. For those of you who are new to the concept of Near Field Communication or NFC this technology is an extension of RFID where the tag and reader feature together in a single device. Using it you will be able to make payments or exchange information with a simple tap which would certainly make your life a lot simpler.

You will no longer need to carry a wallet since Nokia 6212 Classic will be like an electronic wallet for you and you can simply load cash for making purchases or pre paid ticket credits. People who give utmost priority to security need not worry as the phone is equipped with in built security measures which includes password protection feature for every transaction.

Other regular features of the phone are 3G, 2-inch QVGA display, two mega pixel camera, music player, FM radio and microSD card expansion. Nokia 6212 Classic cell phone is expected to be available in the third quarter of 2008 in Asia and Europe for somewhere around £160.

It may pass off as another run of the mill phone to the layman but its NFC capability is something which needs to be counted upon. Probably I will have to throw my heavy wallet out of my pocket in favor of Nokia 6212 Classic.
