Update 1: iOS 13.4 could enable long range feature on compatible device https://www.reddit.com/r/iOSBeta/comments/fcww2x/feature_ios_134_beta_enables_ble_long_range/
Update 2: advertising on Coded PHY https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/49799/issue-regarding-nrf52840-long-range-mode
Update 3: SDK example is **ble_app_att_mtu_throughput**
Update 4: nRF Connect App on Android support seem to support Long Range already !!
Update : list of mobile device that is known to support Long Range, source

Research direction
Start by reviewing the nRF52 Arduino Bluetooth implementation and the referenced SDK example, ble_app_att_mtu_throughput. Compare the requested Bluetooth 5 Long Range and Coded PHY behavior with the linked Nordic documentation and device notes. Done should mean Long Range support is implemented and verified on compatible hardware, but the issue does not specify files or tests.
