Hi,
Not yet - there have been a few other questions about this... Which actual features from Bluetooth 5 do you want? Because the nRF52832 doesn't actually support any of the features (like long range, or the very high datarates) that you might expect from Bluetooth 5.
So while you could flash a firmware onto the Puck that would handle Bluetooth 5, about the only difference you'll see is less available flash memory and less available RAM (because the BLE 5 softdevice needs more memory).

Basically from the features that 5 can provide(range, power) and obsolescence perspective am trying to understand the update of the BLE 4.2 to 5. In my use case, the Beacon receivers are becoming BLE 5 compatible while am using the PuckJS as beacons.
Thanks.

Hi,
Realistically there will be no difference for you between Puck.js on BLE 4.2 or 5 then. It's not like 4.2 will become obsolete, as BLE is just a superset of what's in BLE 4.2
hi Gordon, any chance do we get BLE 5 updated firmware on PuckJS ?
Thanks.
