Bluetooth™

No strings attached

The Bluetooth™ experience

Liberate yourself from cables and revel in unfettered freedom. Bluetooth™ wireless technology frees more than your hands – discover how easy it is to share files when you’re not tripping over wires or constantly unplugging and reconnecting.

Highlights

How it works

Every Bluetooth™ device has a unique name, enabling devices to recognise each other once they have been paired, and avoiding interference with other devices. Bluetooth™ enables communication across distances of up to 10 metres, and at speeds of up to 720 kb/s per channel.

Essential in the car

Pair your phone with a handsfree unit for safe, convenient communication while driving. Phone and unit connect instantly, even with your phone in your bag, letting you keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road while you make, take and reject calls.

Why is it called Bluetooth™?

The Viking king Harald Bluetooth united Norway and Denmark. He was renowned as a great communicator, skilled at bringing people together to talk to each other – but he would never have guessed that a thousand years later a powerful technology would be named after him!

Synchronised magic

With Bluetooth™, you can synchronise your work tools quickly and effortlessly. Once paired, your devices remember each other’s unique names and connect seamlessly every time, just as we recognise our friends. Many Sony Ericsson phones are also compatible with Apple® iSync.

Bluetooth™ headset

Lose those ugly wires! A Bluetooth™ headset gives outstanding audio quality for both you and the person you’re talking to, and complements your outfit with stylish design. Manage calls easily with buttons and voice control, up to 10 metres from your phone.
