Scanning NFC tags

Your device can scan various kinds of NFC tags. For example, it can scan embedded tags on a poster, on a billboard advertisement, or beside a product in a retail store. You can receive additional information, such as a web address.

Connecting to an NFC compatible device

You can connect your device to other NFC compatible devices produced by Sony, such as a speaker or a headphone. When establishing this kind of connection, refer to the User guide of the compatible device for more information.

You may need to have Wi-Fi® or Bluetooth® activated on both devices for the connection to work.

Bluetooth® wireless technology

Use the Bluetooth® function to send files to other Bluetooth® compatible devices, or to connect to handsfree accessories. Turn on the Bluetooth® function in your device and create wireless connections to other Bluetooth® compatible devices such as

computers, handsfree accessories, and phones. Bluetooth® connections work better within 10 metres (33 feet), with no solid objects in between. In some cases you have

to manually pair your device with other Bluetooth® devices.

Interoperability and compatibility among Bluetooth® devices can vary.
