BLE Pairing vs Bonding

BLE pairing vs. bonding Just a quick write up on the difference between pairing and bonding, since these terms get used interchangeably. I think this has to do with the usage of ‘pairing’ in Bluetooth Classic, or BR/EDR. As far as Bluetooth LE is concerned, pairing and bonding are two very distinct things. The short explanations are that pairing is the exchange of security features each device has, and creating temporary encryption. Bonding is the exchange of long term keys AFTER PAIRING HAS OCCURRED, and STORING THOSE KEYS FOR LATER USE. Pairing is not the creation of permanent security between devices, that  is called bonding. Pairing is the mechanism that allows bonding to occur. Pairing Pairing is the exchange of security features. This includes things like i/o capabilities, requirement for man-in-the-middle protection, etc. The client side begins this exchange.

The One Thing Nobody Has Told You About The Samsung Galaxy S8

The Samsung Galaxy S8 is about the first smartphone to feature Bluetooth 5, the latest standard of the wireless transmission technology. The Sony Xperia Z Premium will also have it, but it’s not due for a while yet. So what, you say? Well, it’s pretty neat and has plenty of new features, such as being twice as fast as the previous version, four times the range range (1000 feet) and more, providing you have devices capable of making the most of it. This has allowed Samsung to come up with something it calls Bluetooth Dual Audio, specified by Samsung on its website but hardly reported. And Bluetooth Dual Audio is even cooler. If you have memories of sharing earbuds with someone special so you can both listen to the same track, those memories are probably warm and rosy, tempered only by the lack of stereo available to both parties. So how much better would it be if you could both connect your own Bluetooth headphones to the same phone at the same time and stream the music to...
