Bluetooth Low Energy adapter

Linux Distributions Pop!_OS
1

Hi all,

I need a Bluetooth Low Energy dongle for my pc running Pop!_OS. I know that not all dongles are Linux compatible. Any suggestions? What specs should I look out for?

Kind regards,
Kees

I would assume Intel BT adapters would work out of the box, so try looking for one of these. Other than that, BT is still kinda funky in linux. When I tried it in plasma and in sway using bluedevil, my BT headset was working fine. I had an old Intel WiFi and BT combo board.

Other than that, not much to look into, BT either works or doesn’t.

Thanks for your reply. I just have to try, I guess. Luckily these adapters aren’t so expensive…
