I was looking to upgrade my laptop's wifi and I stumbled upon this Intel wifi 6e card from Verilux with BT v5.2. I checked intel's site and it said that all ax210 are meant to have BT v5.3.

Can somebody if it is just a typing mistake by seller or there just some ax210 cards with BT v5.2?

Or I should invest more to buy Intel ax210 by Plugnet which mentions BT v5.3?

Intel's AX210 silicon component supports BT 5.3. If someone is claiming only BT 5.2 support, I would say that this is a mistake in their advertisement.

You should only purchase Wireless cards from manufacturers that you know and trust. There are a number of Chinese manufacturers that are producing poor quality knock-offs of the Intel cards just to grab a quick buck at the purchaser's expense. They will advertise these 'products' under a number of obfuscated names. If it's truly from Intel, the advertisement will say 'Intel'. Do not go by the picture that they include. Some will blatantly use a picture of an Intel card. Others will take the same picture and blur out the word 'Intel' in the upper-left corner.

Hope this helps,
