1. Range: Classic Bluetooth has a range of up to 100 meters, while BLE has a range of up to 50 meters.
2. Power Consumption: BLE is more power efficient than classic Bluetooth, allowing for smaller battery sizes and extended battery life.
3. Data Transfer Rate: Classic Bluetooth can transfer data at up to 2.1 Mbps, while BLE can transfer data at up to 1 Mbps.
4. Applications: Classic Bluetooth is best suited for applications that require high-speed data transfer and low latency, such as streaming audio and video. BLE is best suited for applications that require low-energy and low data rates, such as fitness trackers and home automation.
Example: A fitness tracker would be a good example of an application that would use BLE, while a wireless speaker system would be a good example of an application that would use classic Bluetooth.
