Best Answer

most modern phones do not have infrared anymore. This technique was used with old phones to transfer data wireless form phone to phone or from the phone to the computer. However this technology is now deprecated because it was too slow.

There are new protocols for the technology making it much more effective then it use to be and also much faster but manufacturers have not embraced this.
