Bluetooth was designed to be a SHORT-RANGE cable replacement... not wifi, not a cordless phone, not a walkie talkie.
There are newer BT devices that can supposedly hit 30m, but BOTH devices have to be BT Long-range devices.
To have a long range transmitter on a small device would eat up way too much power. As it is, BT drains phones almost 2x faster during a call made with a BT headset.
Another reason why BT was specifically designed to be short range is to minimize frequency crowding. If EVERYONE had a BT headset, and EVERYONE was making calls... you have any idea how garbled, and choppy the reception would be if your phone could pick up EVERY BT HEADSET within 150 feet?!?!? Security would be a major issue since now, someone could be snatching your BT transmissions from far, far away.
