Bluetooth 5 is coming with 4X range, 2x speed and 800% broadcasting capacity

There's a breakthrough for Bluetooth around the corner which will make our mobile and connected devices grab data much quicker and from much, much farther away with less chance of interference.

Extending range will deliver robust, reliable Internet of Things (IoT) connections that make full-home and building and outdoor use cases a reality.
