Connecting with
Bluetooth
®
devices
With the built-in Bluetooth wireless
technology on your smartphone, you can
connect to a number of Bluetooth devices,
including a hands-free device such as a
headset or car kit, a printer, or a GPS
receiver, as well as to other smartphone
smart devices and handhelds that are
equipped with Bluetooth wireless
technology. If your computer is enabled
with Bluetooth wireless technology, you
can also synchronize wirelessly or use your
phone to connect your computer to the
Internet.
You can create a list of Bluetooth devices
that you trust to communicate with your
smartphone. When communicating with
trusted devices, your smartphone skips the
discovery process and creates a secure link
as long as the device is within range.
Bluetooth range is up to 30 feet
(10 meters), depending on environmental
conditions, including obstacles, radio
interference from nearby electronic
equipment, and other factors.
When you configure a hands-free device,
as described previously in Connecting to a
Bluetooth
®
hands-free device, the
hands-free device automatically appears in
your Trusted Devices list. Follow the steps
in this section to add other devices to your
Trusted Devices list, such as a friend’s
handheld.
