After taking group photos, if you want to share the photos in your mobile phone with your friends, you often use Bluetooth transmission, but it is troublesome to use Bluetooth transmission. First, you need to turn on Bluetooth, then wait for your mobile phone to search, and then select the mobile phone you want to connect. You will find that it is better to consume some traffic and send it to each other through WeChat. In fact, Google has taken this into consideration Google After the launch of Android 4.1, as long as the phones touch back to back, we can use the Android Beam function to achieve short distance image transmission between phones.
However, most people are not familiar with this new function. On the one hand, this new function needs to support NFC and Android 4.0 mobile phones, and you need Android 4.1 to better experience the Android Beam function, so many people are still unfamiliar with Android Beam.
Android Beam is a function launched by Google for short distance transmission between mobile phones. It can simply share business cards, web pages, maps, photos, videos, etc. between mobile phones in a back-to-back manner.
In ordinary times, we often encounter such a situation. When you are browsing a web page and find an interesting web page to share with your friends nearby, you may directly tell your friends what the web address is, but some web addresses can not be entered in just a few words. In this case, it is quite painful to enter them manually. With Android beam, you can just hold the phone back to back and click the screen, and the other phone will also open this page.
Everyone has tried to forget to bring a business card or send it out. In fact, if all mobile phones support Android Beam, we won't need to bring physical business cards anymore. You just need to open the business card you want to transfer in your address book, touch your phone and click the screen, and your business card will be transferred to others' address book. In this way, you don't have to worry about not bringing your business card, and others don't have to enter your business card manually after going back.
In Android 4.1, Google has upgraded Android Beam and added support for image and video transmission, which means that in the future, photos and videos in the phone can be freely shared with each other as long as you touch the phone back to back.
The principle of Android Beam is to pair the Bluetooth between mobile phones quickly through NFC, that is to say, the speed of Android Beam is multiple if the Bluetooth speed of mobile phones is multiple. At present, the maximum transmission rate of Bluetooth 4.0 is 25Mbps. It is not a big problem to transmit pictures and short videos. But for GB files such as movies, Samsung's S Beam function should be more reliable.
