amazing.
thanks apple.
iPhone 8 and X support near field communications protocols A, B, and F.
F means FeLiCa, the Japan standard.
meaning: 8 and X purchased anywhere in the world will allow you to use your apple pay in Japan AND will allow you to use the only type of terminal actually used in Japan (FeLiCa). giving you access to transportation and convenience stores and everywhere.
if you are planning to go to the Tokyo Olympics this is great news.
there is a great site with more about this:
