What is Bluetooth 4.0
Bluetooth 4.0 is exactly what the name would have you believe: it’s the next version of the same old Bluetooth technology we all know. Phones that have Bluetooth 4.0 are often referred to as 'Bluetooth Smart Ready' while the peripherals taking advantage of this technology are dubbed 'Bluetooth Smart'.
Don’t worry, a Bluetooth 4.0 Ready phone will still be fully backwards compatible with your Bluetooth 3.0 accessories and peripherals so you won’t have to throw out that old beat up headset just yet. Of course, using accessories and peripherals that are pre-4.0 will prevent you from taking advantage of Bluetooth 4.0′s new features.
