Will LT26W running Sony Android 4.1.2 support Bluetooth Low Energy devices ?

[Jak-Grimm]

I would like to know if my Xperia Acro S LT26W running Sony Android 4.1.2 support Bluetooth Low Energy devices ?

I have a heart rate monitor, but it is a BLE device. Will the LT26W connect to it ?

No, that's a feature on Android 4.3

Bluetooth Low Energy

Android 4.3 (API Level 18) introduces built-in platform support for Bluetooth Low Energy in the central role and provides APIs that apps can use to discover devices, query for services, and read/write characteristics. In contrast to Classic Bluetooth, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is designed to provide significantly lower power consumption. This allows Android apps to communicate with BLE devices that have low power requirements, such as proximity sensors, heart rate monitors, fitness devices, and so on.

Neither the Xperia S, SL, Acro S will get 4.3
