Utilising powerful radio frequencies, Bluetooth connectivity completely removes the need for wires, freeing you from all that unwanted clutter on your desk. The most common examples of devices that can use Bluetooth are mobile phones and wireless peripherals, such as a keyboard, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/how-to-connect-your-stadia-controller-via-bluetooth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">controller<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/how-to-connect-your-wireless-headset-to-your-gaming-pc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">headset,<\/a> or mouse.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overclockers UK&#8217;s fun fact of the day, Bluetooth got its name from a Viking King!

To ensure you achieve the best possible performance and connectivity, you\u2019ll need to ensure your device is compatible with the version of Bluetooth you are trying to use. Thankfully, this is pretty easy to find out. Simply check out any manuals that came with your device, or the manufacturer webpage.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019ve included all the different Bluetooth types in the handy table below, so you can easily find the max speed, range, power requirements, and more for your chosen version.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><thead><tr><th><\/th><th>Bluetooth 1<\/th><th>Bluetooth 2<\/th><th>Bluetooth 3<\/th><th>Bluetooth 4<\/th><th>Bluetooth 5 <\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Speed<\/td><td>732.2kb\/s to 1 Mbps<\/td><td>2.1 Mbps <\/td><td>24 Mbps (via Wi-Fi signal)<\/td><td>1 Mbps or 25 Mbps <br>(EDR)*<\/td><td>2 Mbps or 50 Mbps (EDR)*<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Range<\/td><td>10 meters (33 feet)<\/td><td>30 meters (100 feet)<\/td><td>30 meters (100 feet)<\/td><td>60 meters (200 feet)<\/td><td>240 meters (800 feet)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Compatibility <\/td><td>N\/A<\/td><td>Compatible with most phones, <br>but can result in poor sound sync<\/td><td>Compatible with all phones<\/td><td>Best used with phones and devices <br>that are compatible with Bluetooth 4<\/td><td>Best used with the latest phones and <br>devices with Bluetooth<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Power Requirements<\/td><td>High<\/td><td>High<\/td><td>High<\/td><td>Mid-High<\/td><td>Low<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Reliability <\/td><td>Low<\/td><td>Low<\/td><td>Low<\/td><td>Mid-High<\/td><td>High<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">*EDR: Enhanced Data Rate<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Can I Find Out if My PC Has Bluetooth?&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To find out if your PC has Bluetooth go into <strong>Device Manager<\/strong> &gt; Check to see if there is a Bluetooth category in the drop-down menu.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"352\" height=\"601\" src=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Bluetooth-screenshot.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33705\"\/ loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Bluetooth-screenshot.png 352w, https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Bluetooth-screenshot-176x300.png 176w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 352px) 100vw, 352px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Screenshot taken in Windows 10<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you can\u2019t see Bluetooth listed in this, drop-down menu, select \u2018Network Adapters\u2019 from the list.

First, on the taskbar, select <strong>Network<\/strong> &gt; click the <strong>Bluetooth<\/strong> icon to toggle it on and off.

You can still unlock access to that desirable fast connectivity and wireless set-up, by investing in a powerful Bluetooth adapter. Available in both USB and PCIe variants, you can find Bluetooth adapters to suit your set-up.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>TP-Link UB500 Bluetooth 5.0 Nano USB
