Samsung S8500 cell phone with Bluetooth 3.0
The Samsung S8500 cell phone comes with Bluetooth 3.0, with the assumption that Bluetooth 3.0 will be present, hopefully long transfer times from one device to another will no longer be an issue. New Samsung cell phones – Samsung S8500 has a 3.1 inch High resolution OLED touchscreen screen, TouchWIZ UI, WiFi, Bluetooth 3.0, 3G capable. The S8500 supports EDGE/GPRS Quad-Band(850/900/1800/1900).
The Bluetooth 3.0 + HS specification was adopted by the Bluetooth SIG on April 21, 2009. It supports theoretical data transfer speeds of up to 24 Mbit/s. Its main new feature is AMP (Alternate MAC/PHY), the addition of 802.11 as a high speed transport. Two technologies had been anticipated for AMP: 802.11 and UWB, but UWB is missing from the specification.
