Bluetooth 5.0 Is Here – Top Smartphones That Are Compatible With It

The newest version of Bluetooth is here, and although it is yet limited to a select few smartphones, it comes with a promise of increased speed and greater range.

Advantages of the Bluetooth 5.0 Over Bluetooth 4.2

• 2 times the speed as offered by Bluetooth 4.2-compliant device (maximum theoretical bandwidth – 2Mbps)
• 4 times the range of a Bluetooth-compatible device
• 8 times the broadcasting message capacity over Bluetooth 4.2-sporting devices
• Larger data packet size as compared to Bluetooth 4.2 (increase from 31-octet to 255-octet)
• Automatic interference detection and prevention on neighbouring bands

As of now, Android Nougat or earlier versions don’t have support for Bluetooth 5.0, and we will have to wait at least until the Android O shows up, in order to avail its full advantages.

Anyway, here are the currently available smartphones with Bluetooth 5.0 that you can have a look at, if you love using the Bluetooth feature, and want something that is future proof on that front.

Google Pixel 2 and Pixel 2XL

Google’s both Pixel 2 and Pixel 2XL smartphones ditch the headphone jack. To make up for the loss, the company has backed the phone with the Bluetooth 5.0 LE.

These are the second generation of Pixel smartphones launched by the search-engine giant. The new Pixel devices run on the latest Android Oreo out of the box, have the best-rated cameras, and are powered by industry’s latest and fastest processor, Snapdragon 835.

LG V30

The LG V30 is the most recent addition to this list of Bluetooth 5.0 supported phones. Aesthetically, this is the best-looking smartphone that LG has launched till date. It offers a glass-metal design.

The phone packs powerful hardware which is equivalent to the Samsung Galaxy S8. Apart from Bluetooth 5.0, it other prominent characteristic includes a 2K display, dual rear optics, water resistance IP68 certification and quad DAC for audiophiles.

Samsung Galaxy Note 8

Like the Galaxy S8, Samsung is also offering Bluetooth 5.0 support in the Galaxy Note 8. This 2K17 phablet currently only available in the US and Europe but it will be launched in India very soon.

Specs-wise there is hardly anything to differentiate between the Galaxy S8+ and the Note 8 but gives it a slight edge is the S Pen and dual rear cameras set up with dual OIS.

Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+

One of the first smartphones to arrive with the latest Bluetooth version, the S8 duo has proven to be the right fit in Samsung’s bid at redemption (after the Note 7 debacle, that is).

Other than Bluetooth 5.0, the two have the latest Snapdragon 835 chipset, 4GB/64GB RAM/ROM combination, Android Nougat 7.0 OS, quadHD+ AMOLED display, as well as a dual-camera setup at the back.

The differences between the two are only the sizes of the displays (the S8’s 5.2-inch one vs the S8+’s 6.4-inch one), and the battery (S8 has a 3,000mAH power unit as compared to the S8+’s 3,500mAh one).

OnePlus 5

OnePlus’ ambitious latest outing also joins the small list of smartphones featuring Bluetooth’s latest version. Otherwise too, the phone comes totting some pretty high-end specs – a testament to the company’s ‘flagship killer’ modus operandi.

These include a 5.5-inch Full HD AMOLED display, Snapdragon 835 processor, 6GB and 8GB RAM options, Android 7.1.1 Nougat OS, as well as a 16MP + 20MP camera setup on the back.

Other than that, there’s a 3,300mAh battery with the company’s famous ‘Dash charging’ capabilities, 16MP selfie snapper, and a home button-embedded fingerprint sensor.

Xiaomi Mi 6

The Chinese company’s flagship is another Bluetooth 5.0-sporting smartphones and is expected to rival the others when it comes to the rest of its specifications.

With the Mi 6, Xiaomi has provided for a four-sided curved glass covering to protect the phone’s 5.15-inch Full HD display, while a dual-camera unit greets you at the back.

Other notable specifications of the phone include a 6GB RAM, octa-core Snapdragon 835 chipset, 8MP front camera, as well as a 3,350mAh battery with fast charging capabilities.

Well, that’s that for the Bluetooth 5.0 supporting smartphones for now. We will be updating this article as soon as new handsets compliant with the latest Bluetooth version start popping up.

Asus Zenfone 4 Pro and Zenfone 4

The new smartphones by Asus – Zenfone 4 Pro and Zenfone 4, have also got Bluetooth 5.0 support capabilities. These are the fourth generation of smartphones launched by the company, after almost a year.

Both, Zenfone 4 Pro and Zenfone 4, has a dual-camera setup and comes in a design very reminiscent to iPhone 7 Plus. The dual-camera horizontally placed at the back of the phone has a 12MP sensor with dual-tone LED Flash, Dual Pixel, Sony sensor and f/1.8 aperture.

The phones include a 5.5inch display, a 2.5D glass on top, and is framed in an all-metallic unibody design. Both phones will run on Android 7.1.1 Nougat software with Zen UI 4.0 skin on top.

Android to get built-in Bluetooth Smart Ready support this year

As powerful as Android can be, Bluetooth is one of its glaring weaknesses: the absence of a default Bluetooth framework has led to inconsistent implementations from both device builders and app developers. Google is at last covering that gaping hole, however. As hinted earlier today, it’s incorporating Bluetooth Smart Ready support (that is, Bluetooth 4.0 on a dual-mode chip) in an upcoming version of Android. Having a common platform should allow for more reliable behavior, not to mention fewer roadblocks to using low power Bluetooth Smart (single-mode Bluetooth 4.0) devices like the Fitbit Flex. There’s only one catch that we can see, so far: when Google hasn’t said how soon we’ll get that Android upgrade, wireless peripheral lovers will have to remain patient.

Google Announces Bluetooth® Smart Ready Support for Android Coming Later this Year

Consumers win as developer opportunity explodes for Bluetooth Smart with support from Apple, Microsoft and Google

Kirkland, Washington – May 15, 2013 – Today at Google I/O, Google’s annual developer conference, Google announced that in the coming months, Android will include native support for Bluetooth Smart Ready and Bluetooth Smart devices. Phones and tablets with a dual-mode Bluetooth chip running the coming version of Android will qualify as Bluetooth Smart Ready. Bluetooth Smart Ready is the premium designation for devices that are compatible with virtually any Bluetooth enabled product, from keyboards or audio headphones, to the next generation of ultra power-efficient Bluetooth Smart appcessories, like the FitBit Flex or the Pebble watch, coming to market now.

«Working with the big OS providers to offer native support for Bluetooth Smart Ready has been a major initiative within the Bluetooth SIG – we’re thrilled to welcome Android to the family,» said Suke Jawanda, CMO of the Bluetooth SIG. «It’s the hardware and software support that enables Bluetooth Smart Ready devices to seamlessly connect with the billions of Bluetooth devices in use today, and the exploding new market of Bluetooth Smart appcessories. With today’s announcement, Google joins Apple, Microsoft and BlackBerry in providing native software support which is great news for phone and tablet manufacturers, application developers and ultimately, consumers who count on Bluetooth to connect more of their technology.»

The native Android support for Bluetooth Smart Ready technology available in the coming months means Bluetooth Smart developers will have an easy way to connect their devices to and distribute their applications within the massive Android ecosystem. Developers will be able to use the new Android API to feed data collected from Bluetooth Smart appcessories, like fitness monitors or medical devices, to their apps running on Bluetooth Smart Ready products, like smart phones or tablets. Once released, any new Bluetooth enabled phone or tablet running Android and featuring a dual mode Bluetooth radio chip will be Smart Ready.

ABI projects the market for Bluetooth appcessories (defined as an accessory device with a companion application) to grow from 220 million units in 2013 to nearly one billion in 2016. To support this growth, the Bluetooth SIG has launched a Bluetooth developer enablement initiative which includes a web portal featuring a community forum, training and other resources to make designing with Bluetooth easier and faster. The Bluetooth Quick Start Kit (available now) serves as an introduction to Bluetooth Smart technology. For the Android developer community, the Bluetooth Application Accelerator (coming soon) will provide detailed implementation and developer guidelines to speed time-to-market for appcessory devices.

«The real winner here is the consumer,» adds Jawanda. «Bluetooth is truly the people’s technology – it is recognized, trusted, and can already be found in the end user’s pocket. Additionally, it is the only wireless technology to offer the ultra low power consumption and ubiquity needed to bring connectivity to the millions of appcessories coming to market. The Bluetooth Smart products we are going to see in the coming months are going to make life better, give more insight, and enable us all to make more informed decisions.»
