Compared to bluetooth :

  • 60% lower power consumption
  • Six times higher data transmission speed
  • 1/30th the latency
  • 7 dB improvement anti-interference for a more stable connection
  • Twice the coverage distance, and
  • 10 times more network connections

Notice it’s not talking of compression yet, but raw connection performance.

Due to the US Huawei ban, the tech won’t arrive to the US yet. Nor maybe ever until something is done.

    I’ve never had a bluetooth device that worked well and connected reliably, so “better than bluetooth” is not hard.

      Right. I care less about 60% less power, and more about will it randomly connect my phone to my car as my partner drives away instead to the speakers I was already using on the desk next to me.
