Learn how to use Bluetooth on your Sony Xperia Tablet Z. Use the Bluetooth function to send files to other Bluetooth compatible devices, or to connect to handsfree accessories. Turn on the Bluetooth function in your device and create wireless connections to other Bluetooth compatible devices such as computers, handsfree accessories, phones, and tablets. Bluetooth connections work better when the connecting devices are within a range of 10 meters (33 feet), with no solid objects in between.
