Bluetooth

Is it true that the transfer speed of bluetooth on PDA phones are very slow?? I heard from my friend that sending a file which is less then 1MB can take up to 1 hour...
Why is that so?? Or is it because his has a problem? -
wah O_O it shudn't be so slow bah.. i transfer my photos from my 750i to my pc frequently and a 500kb file takes only abt 20 seconds?
-
5mb cleared in 1min to 2min

What model are you using? My friend is using O2 miniOriginally posted by dark_snowboy:5mb cleared in 1min to 2min -
Bluetooth is supposed to be rather fast. I can send 2-3mb per min from my phone to my frens and my computer.

3230, from my phone to my uncle's phone k700iOriginally posted by technoboy:What model are you using? My friend is using O2 mini
my lappy to my phone via bluetooth was fast too
-
mayb the 2 devices u mentioned had different bluetooth classes?
-
Errr... I'm talking about bluetooth from PDA phones
-
me running at 40Kb/s.
with Wi-Fi interference, it can drop to 5Kb/s though. -
May I know how do you see the transfer rate? I thought it only show "sending" ?Originally posted by ^tamago^:me running at 40Kb/s.

wi-fi is almost everywhereOriginally posted by ^tamago^:me running at 40Kb/s.

OS X shows.
if i'm using intensive wireless while bluetoothing to my phone, it'll become slow. when i'm outside with my friends and i send files to my frens, it's okay. -
my com to hp quite fast...
out of topic i know........ -
no not slow at all
-
If ya friend's O2 mini sends file that take ages.. it's time to send it to the service centre loh. BT's transfer rate is rather fast. Even a 3-5 MB of song transfer from Computer to my phone takes a few mins.Originally posted by technoboy:What model are you using? My friend is using O2 mini -
Err, is yours the same model as his??
Because I'm also getting a PDA phone soon. Just wanna know what are their weaknesses -
No, I'm using a SE W800i. That's not the point cos if your friend's O2.. which cost more than my phone... and his BT is slower than mine.. something is wrong rite? haha. Ok ok.. anyway.. that's not really the point. There could be some software conflicts or hardware prob cos it won't take that long to send a 1MB file in a hr or so via BT.Originally posted by technoboy:Err, is yours the same model as his??

may be due to BT class.. As what i said

What does that mean?Originally posted by dark_snowboy:may be due to BT class.. As what i said -
There are many types of BT class, meaning BT Class1 Class2 Class3 etc. Perhaps a tranfer from a Class4 to Class10 will be slow, due to the software/hardware perhaps

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth
basically, a Class 1 is the most powerful radio and can transmit further (100m). Class 2 is 10m, and Class 3 is 1m.
speed is dependent on implementation. BT 1.x is 723kbit/s, while BT 2.0 is 2.1Mbit/s. -
Class 10 is for GPRS.Originally posted by dark_snowboy:There are many types of BT class, meaning BT Class1 Class2 Class3 etc. Perhaps a tranfer from a Class4 to Class10 will be slow, due to the software/hardware perhaps
But nothing to do with power consumption classifications of Bluetooth ah. Bluetooth only Class 1-3. No Class 4. -
I think class only differs in their transmission and reception range. For example, class 1 bluetooth device transmission range is around 100m and class 2 or 3 is around 10m. The maximum data transfer rate is around 1 megabits per second if I'm not wrong, and will deteriorate with wifi interference.

me always send mp3s......4-5mb......oni a couple of mins.........

i nv go and check the classes for BT, thx for updating meOriginally posted by ^tamago^:Class 10 is for GPRS.
