Section 8: Connectivity
Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology
capable of exchanging information over a distance of about 10
metres without requiring a physical connection.
You do not need to line up the devices to beam information with
Bluetooth. If the devices are within range of one another, you can
exchange information between them even if they are located in
different rooms.
Note:
Samsung is not responsible for the loss, interception, or misuse of data
sent or received via the Bluetooth wireless feature.
•
Always ensure that you share and receive data with devices that are
trusted and properly secured. If there are obstacles between the devices,
the operating distance might be reduced.
Note:
Some devices, especially those that are not tested or approved by
Bluetooth SIG, might be incompatible with your phone.
