Bluetooth technology is fast becoming the latest craze among mobile phone users. The reason for this is that the technology enables you to transfer files wirelessly between your device and another without using wires. You can either do it wirelessly or via a wired connection if you want a mobile phone to act as a receiver and transmitter for other devices.
Let us examine the advantages of Bluetooth technology in detail.
Bluetooth is comparatively new technology, though it has been around for a few years already. It was developed by the Portable Electronic Device Industry Association (PEDIA) in the mid 1990s. Initially, Bluetooth was designed just for phones. But it was later discovered that it could also be used to communicate with other electronic items like printers, cameras, keyboards, infrared devices and others. Thus, this new technology found application in various electronic equipment, including cell phones and handheld computers.
Since Bluetooth is a radio frequency, it requires no cable connections.
This is a great advantage as far as wireless connection is concerned. Unlike other wireless connections, Bluetooth does not require any external power supply. With the absence of wires, it becomes easier to move from one place to another and the possibility of short circuit is eliminated.
Bluetooth is considered to be very secure.
All the wireless devices that run on its standard are deemed to be safe to use. The fact that Bluetooth can transfer data at a faster speed than standard means that your data will be transferred faster as well. You would have to wait a longer time when trying to send or receive data from a slower network.
A major benefit of using Bluetooth
Technology is that you do not need to be connected to the same wireless connection all the time. For instance, if you have two Smart Phones in your possession, each of them can operate on its own without using the other. This gives you freedom from tangled wires that can get in the way of your wireless devices. You can easily disconnect and reconnect the devices any time you like. If you travel with your laptop, you can even take it with you when you go out of the house without the fear of your wireless connection getting damaged.
Finally, Bluetooth does not require any monthly fees. There are no long distance charges and there are no recurring monthly charges. This means that you only pay for the connection you use while you are using it.
Hence, there is no need to spend more money on different wireless technology packages every month.
