Conventional **Bluetooth** is suitable **to process, transfer and exchange a large amount of data** on a non-stop basis (example in audio). However, it consumes a lot more power and is much more expensive.

The **BLE technology** , on the other hand, is suitable for **applications that do not require the transfer of large amounts of data** , and may therefore **recover only a few information (such as time or temperature, for instance)**. As a result, the device may run on battery for several years at a lower cost than Bluetooth, as it does not require a continuous connection **.**
