Compared to Bluetooth:

  • 60% lower power consumption
  • Six times higher data transmission speed

    Bluetooth is very widespread but neither free to use nor an open standard. I can’t find any real technical info on this new technology or any references to it being any more open than Bluetooth. So far this seems like another closed, proprietary technology by Huawei and “industry partners” so I honestly don’t really care about it. This seems more like a move by Huawei to get away from having to pay licensing fees for Bluetooth without any benefits for users or the tech community as a whole.
