Exchange information between devices with Bluetooth capabilities without a physical connection.

Connect the device to your computer using a USB connection to use the device as a modem, data sync device or external memory disk.

Set the device to connect a Wi-Fi network in a Wi-Fi-enabled zone for high speed network connections.

Beaming with Bluetooth

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology. Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange data over a distance of about 10 metres without requiring a physical connection.

You do not need to line up the device with another device to beam information with Bluetooth.

Note: Using Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connections at the same time may cause your device to disconnect or slow down during data transmission.
