NFC Tags, Only Samsung Tech Tiles or are other brands compatable

[Pdelponte]

I was wondering if other brands of NFC Tags will work with the GS3 or if only the Samsung Tech Tiles will work.

Thanks.

Funk is correct. There are several vendors selling generic tags for a $1/each.

I can personally confirm that these tags work 100% with the GSIII - http://www.buynfctags.com/nfc-tags/stickers/nfc-sticker-ntag.html

I need to read up on nfc tags and start playing with them I think. Sounds like a cool concept.

Any NFC tags should work, I got some from www.tagsfordroid.com. I prefer "NFC Task Launcher" instead of the TecTiles app.

Any NFC tags should work. Like jaj, I got mine from buynfctags.com and got 10 for about $13 including shipping and got them in about 3 days and they work great. I use NFC Task Launcher to load tasks on them. I really like the switch one so I can hit the tag to do a series of tasks when I go to bed and then another set for when I get up with one tag.

This is what I have as well. It's working quite nicely and the tags are cheaper than the Sammy tags.
