iPhone 4S - World's First Phone To Support Bluetooth 4.0
Couple of days before Apple's Let's Talk iPhone event, we speculated that the next generation iPhone could come with Bluetooth 4.0 support rather than NFC.
Guess What? iPhone 4S does come with Blueetooth 4.0 support, making it the world's first phone to support Bluetooth 4.0. It was strangely one of the features that Apple didn't highlight at the event.
Bluetooth SIG reports:

most likely it will be a key feature on ip5Apple wants people to be guessing all the time so they can hook people on their products

My guess is because the general public wouldn't know the difference between 2.1 and 4.0. Just saying you are the first to include something doesn't mean anything if you don't have a way to apply that technology in a meaningful way.

well all who were waiting for iphone 5 take this! lol why apple come out with a new phone the same year
-
I'm glad they updated to Bluetooth 4.0. The new Bluetooth features coming out in vehicles alone will be worth including the feature.

Is Bluetooth 4.0 compatible with all the devices that support 2.1 and lower? I don't want my Bluetooth headset to fail connecting with iPhone 4S because (it doesn't meet the high standard requirement of this Bluetooth profile).

Couple days ago? You mean Yesterday.

Uhhh maybe because it wouldn't be the first. There is already a phone that supports 4.0.
-
How does it help. People care less about tech more about looks.

What is the advantage of bt4 ? most of profile has been disabled in iPhone.

Bluetooth 4 support? how? where?Don't forget the easy fact that iphones (including 4) still don't have a full implementation even of bluetooth 2.1! It supports only 6 out of 25 profiles that bluetooth has!!!
