Can iZettle reader and this SDK work with Bluetooth 3.0 (non LE) Android devices?

Is there an iZettle reader that does not require Bluetooth LE (for older Android devices)? And if so, does this SDK support those readers? Thank you.

There is a iZettle Reader V1 (with blue button) which uses classic BT.
But be aware that this SDK supports Android 5 or above, it works with 4.4 but LE is a bit flacky.

The one in the left uses Classic BT, the one in the right uses LE.

But I'm not sure about hardware availability, this question is better to ask to our support line.

Awesome, thank you Fabricio.

Sorry @fabriciovergara, and just to clarify if I have an Android 5 device that does not have LE (only classic), can I still use this SDK?

Yes, you will be able to use the SDK, but you will need a card reader that uses classic BT (with blue button), which depending where are you placed it can have limited stock. Please verify with your local iZettle support/sales line beforehand.
