hi everybody,
I began to need using bluetooth sometimes in my Hackintosh, so I got a gmyle dongle BT 4.0 but can use since after El Capitan's Day.

I need a dongle bluetooth 4.0 or 5.0 that works in BigSur OOB. its possible to achieve something like that those days?
 
Read a few posts that this USB dongle works in Big Sur, but not sure how accurate they are. However it is a fairly inexpensive device, so might be worth a try - Laird BT852 USB Bluetooth 5 V5.0 dongle https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/274643210690, it's available in the UK for £4.99.

If that doesn't work then you may need to look at an Apple Airport card Bcm94360, Bcm943602CS etc. these original Apple cards work just fine in Big Sur on a PCIe adapter. That's what I use in all my Desktop Hacks.
