First, let us tell why Bluetooth is the best technology in the market comparing Wi-Fi. The main reason is Bluetooth consumes much less energy comparing Wi-Fi works. Though Bluetooth has less data transfer speed, but still it consumes less energy and that is the reason all headset manufacturers embed Bluetooth facility rather than Wi-Fi.

The newly launched Bluetooth 5 is much faster in data transferring speed and has high range capacity. It aims to best transferring hardware with low energy consumption.
Features of Bluetooth 5:
The new version of Bluetooth will have four times increment in range comparing its predecessors. Bluetooth 5 has a maximum range of 240metres or 800feet which is much more than its predecessor which had 60metres and 200feet on Bluetooth 4.x.
Now let’s talk about the transferring speeds. Bluetooth new version has 50MB/S transfer speed which is double than its predecessor which had 25MB/S.
Another important feature is in IoT capability. This new version of Bluetooth increases the data broadcasting capability up to 8 times more comparing its predecessor. Bluetooth 5 also adds support for connectionless features like location information and navigation through low energy (LE) Bluetooth.
Words of Mark Powell, Bluetooth SIG’s Executive Director:
“Bluetooth is revolutionizing how people experience the IoT. Bluetooth 5 continues to drive this revolution by delivering reliable IoT connections and mobilizing the adoption of beacons, which in turn will decrease connection barriers and enable a seamless IoT experience.
As we will welcome Bluetooth version 5 in the market. In the coming months, we will see many devices which will have this new thrilling technology in the upcoming year. We could see this technology in upcoming Bluetooth headsets, smartphone, wearables, etc.
