There are many new features introduced in Bluetooth 5.0 specification, including 2M PHY, LE coded PHY etc., but they are probably not supported by the devices which were already in the market before Bluetooth 5.0 specification was released. It becomes more important to know which features are supported by specified devices when designing peripherals connecting to them. Here is a description how to get such information from the Bluetooth SIG website.

Below is an example to get the listing information of Samsung Galaxy S8+, the model name is SM-G9550. You can search for any other listed devices following the steps below.

• Open below link of Bluetooth SIG.

• Type the model name into the search label, then click search. If the device is listed in Bluetooth SIG, the report including some major information (such as specification name) should be displayed.

• Click the Declaration ID. Declaration details will show on the page.

• Click “View ISC details”.

• You will see below information on the page. The left part shows all the categories, and the right part shows all the items included in the selected category. Below picture is an example to search “LE 2M PHY” and “LE Coded PHY”, we can see that the LE 2M PHY is supported but the LE Coded PHY is not.

Besides of LE 2M PHY and LE Coded PHY, you can easily find other Bluetooth features on this page and see if they are supported or not.
