RC522 is a highly integrated RFID card reader which works on non-contact 13.56MHz communication. Designed by NXP, as a low power consumption, low cost and compact size read and write chip, it is the best choice in the development of smart meters and portable hand-held devices.
NFC (Near Field Communications) is a way for two devices very close to each other to communicate. Sort of like a very short range bluetooth that doesn't require authentication. It is an extension of RFID, so anything you can do with RFID you can do with NFC.
Because it can read and write tags, you can always just use this for RFID-tag projects. MFRC522 support Mifare series high speed non-contact communication, with duplex communication speeds of up to 424 kb/s.
This module can fit directly in hand held devices for mass production. The module uses 3.3V power supply, and can communicate directly with any CPU board by connecting through SPI protocol, which ensures reliable reading range.
I had used a lots of LoRa module till now, but it's really the best among all of them! the 1262 is a great upgrade in terms of output power and configuration. we can configure the output power, bandwidth, spreading factor and a tons of other things, which are not possible to configure on previous modules. the radiolib library works preety good with it and it also supports rssi and snr like features, which are very crucial when you are seriously researching on antenna or range related works! that's why I eventually like this module more then ebyte LoRas. To me this is the best module in IN8 68MHz, which is completly legal and free to use in India upto 1W! And also thanks to thinkrobotics, I got it in just 1 working day, and your packaging was also too good! Love your service, and keep this modules available on your websight. Your pricing of this module is too good, and I'll buy many of these modules. Thank you!

Team is suppotive and solves all the queries .
The product is good and will surely help me in my project...looking forward for more trades with think robotics.
