Using U1 chip technology, the AirTag provides precise locating indoors as well as outdoors, with in-built speakers that can ring a button press or upon Siri command. Managed under the Find My app introduced in iOS 14.3, each AirTag is shown in the map view of the software. Setting up the tracker was as simple as a one-tap gesture following unboxing, and each tag can personalized with name and description. The Airtag is quite feature-rich and provides a great level of accessibility to Apple users. A notification does alert you to any needed replacement, which can be easily performed by pressing and twisting the back panel of the AirTag.

Like other premium Bluetooth trackers, the AirTag takes advantage of CR2032 battery technology, which provides up to one year of battery life before requiring a replacement. Without charging capabilities, Apple has designed the AirTag to run on replaceable batteries.

Moreover, the AirTag’s meek size and construction can make the tracker vulnerable to superficial damage like scratches. Closely designed around the CR2032 batteries that power them, the AirTag can fit inside or alongside almost any bag, purse, or wallet.Įrgonomically the AirTag is a little disappointing, as while the key finder can attach to most devices and personal items, I found this usually required additional accessories that at the time of review cost close to the price of the original tracker. With a button-shaped frame no more than a couple inches wide, this Bluetooth tracker is made to be mini. The circular tracking device has a clean glossy finish which is customizable with a personal engraving and shaded backing. Bringing the polish and attention-to-detail of Apple’s powerhouse, the AirTag sports stand-out accuracy, and responsiveness, which Apple pairs with their signature minimalist aesthetics.Īt first glance, the AirTag is a well-fitting visual companion to Apple’s catalog of premium devices. Apple has entered the niche bluetooth tracking and key finder space with an expectedly well-designed yet impressively performing entry with the ‘AirTag’.
