which devices have ble?

[PhilAJ]

Not sure if this is the right place, but can anyone point me to a list of devices that support bluetooth low energy (ble). I believe it was included in 4.3, but I guess the hardware needs to not only run this but also have the ble chips.

Thanks

It was included in 4.3, so most flagship devices shipping with 4.3+ should have it.

It would be easier to tell you if any particular device you like has it

I'm not after buying one in particular, just looking at developing an App' and wondering what the market would be.

Ah I see.

In that case, if a device was first shipped with 4.3, its a pretty safe bet its got BLE.

If a device shipped with something lower and was later updated to 4.3, it may be missing the hardware end of it.

Given that 4.3 came out about a year ago, i imagine all of the current flagships should have it. Devices like the G2, note 2, galaxy s5, moto x, HTC One, nexus 5 should all have it.
