I found <a href="https://www.xda-developers.com/check-bluetooth-5-all-features-supported/">this blog </a>that includes a brief list of mobile phones that support these optional Bluetooth 5 features.

Also, keep in mind that to support Coded PHY, a phone also needs to support Extended advertising, as Coded PHY relies on Extended advertising to work.</p> <p>Best regards,</p> <p>Simon</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
