&lt;p&gt;I do not have a list of phones supporting long-range, but If I had, it would probably be very short at this point. I am only aware of the One Pluse 6 ans Galagy S10+ as of (same as you), but there may be a few more. I would expect that the number of phones supporting long-range will increase significantly in the coming couple of years.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Can I connect a Bluetooth adapter to an Android smartphone to use Bluetooth LE Coded Phy?</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/207211?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 30 Aug 2019 18:53:06 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:423c9b49-8d9c-4752-a3a5-36b77e27e8cf</guid><dc:creator>maiermic</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Which phones support LE Coded Phy?

I have looked a bit, but I have not found any. I suspect this is because it is probably not possible to do it (at least not with a reasonable amount of effort and usability). I think your only practical option is to buy a new (for the moment high-end) phone if you really need LE Coded Phy on the phone.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Can I connect a Bluetooth adapter to an Android smartphone to use Bluetooth LE Coded Phy?</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/206458?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 27 Aug 2019 20:14:10 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:20c94150-2f9b-4f38-a0bf-69997408b5f5</guid><dc:creator>maiermic</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Do you know any alternative?

&lt;p&gt;I am not aware of any such product. I would be surprised if it exists. And if it does, it may not be very elegant, since it will probably not be easy to integrate with the&amp;nbsp;BLE stack on the mobile device.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
