Nordic? nRF52810-QFAA-R7 , 32 pins!

These are like buying a micro, and are usually high pin counts. After all they do run a ARM core. At least they give you the BLE stack.

Kind of mutually exclusive, no?

Modules are great, only thing to look out for is that you need to register the product with Bluetooth Organization anyway, large fee needed

Isn't that the reason to use modules, they are already registered?

Maybe the cheap ($1.40 each) Chinese modules aren't registered?

Short answer is no. Longer version : using an already Bluetooth-qualified module, if unmodified, avoid the need for any tests, but not the need to pay fees to the Bluetooth SIG. This is the "path 1" documented here :

but afaiu as long you don't mention "Bluetooth" which they own, there isn't much they can do if you don't register other than kick out of the SIG if you are a member

If you link to an app (Apple or Android), then they may go legal on you and remove your app, or?

I don't know but I don't see how, an app uses the Bluetooth in the phone/tablet which is qualified

imagine them trying to remove a music player app because it connects to a dirt cheap Chinese "bluetooth" speaker that probably isn't qualified
