Sometimes on phone reviews I read that a certain model, often one released in a Western market, uses NFC for payment. In my country, mobile payments use QR codes so any phone with a camera can use them. Does NFC have any advantage over such a system?

    It feels like mostly Asian countries are likely to use QR-code while most western (NA and (West-)Europe) countries are likely to use NFC based.
    At least that’s what I observed with Youtube and my limited traveling.
