I received this tags with my new Xperia S but thought I'd write a review. I customised all 4 to what I need on a daily basis which was really easy; I have "Night", "Morning", "Out and about" and "Home". For example "out and about" turns off my wifi, turns my ring to vibrate and starts my music player. You can add a lot of tasks to each tag but so far I don't need any more than 3 at any one time. I wouldn't have bought them had they not come with the phone as they're not life changing or massively time saving but I do quite like them!

I have a Sony Xperia T which didn't come with any tags so I bought these. These are the NT1 tags and there is a newer version called NT2; however, these are the same apart from colour. You will need to download the "Smart Connect" app to use the tags and NFC needs to be turned on (you can leave it on as it uses very little battery power).
As soon as you swipe your Xperia over the tags the phone will open up the relevant app and you can assign almost any task or tasks. I have one set up for "Home" which turns on WiFi, changes sound profile to loud, turns on bluetooth to pair to a wireless speaker etc. They work very well and it's very well integrated to phone functions. The tags themselves are quite attractive and well made, I have one on a keyring and it appears to have survived all the knocks. I've tried the tags with other NFC android phones and they do recognise them so if you can find a relevant app then you can use these as well.
Things I would improve:
-You can only use the NFC on the Xperia T whilst the phone is on and unlocked so you can't just pick up your phone and swipe it over a tag when it's on standby. This is not a problem with the tag but with the phone but I'd like the option.
-The commands are stored in the Smart Connect app and not the tags so you can't buy 2 or 3 sets of the tags and assign different tasks to two red tags or example. Again, this is a limitation of the app rather than the tags.

There's an Android App called Tasker - give it a set of conditions and it will do things to your phone, change wifi settings, switch Bluetooth on or off, launch the music player, etc. That's what these tags do, only the tag itself is the condition.
I've got one of these by the back door - called it "In or Out". Swipe the phone near it as I go through the door and on the way out it switches Bluetooth on, mobile data on, wifi off, starts the media player. Reverses those settings on the way back in. Yes, you've got to remember to use the tag but that's not too hard. That's how it's programmed on my phone, my wife uses different settings.
Now. These are official Sony tags and came bundled with my wife's Xperia phone but work perfectly using their "Smart Connect" app (free in the Android store) and my Samsung Galaxy Nexus. Under £10 for 4 of these? I wish I'd found them sooner.

NFC tags
The tags are smart and durable, easy to attach to keyring or lanyard.
Only downside is capacity is a bit small, will take a link for a website but not a small email or txt
