Air tag equivalent for Android (not Samsung)

Caranica · 02-08-2022 11:21AM #1

With all the luggage chaos I've been looking into trackers as I'm almost certainly going to have to check in a bag for a long haul flight coming up. I've read lots of sites and reviews and Tile (mate/pro) and Chippolo (one/one spot) are the ones that make all the lists as best alternatives but then the actual reviews say not suitable for luggage tracking. I've a pixel 6 so the Samsung smart tag isn't an option.

Anyone got any recommendations?

I'd recommend the tile, they offer the exact same functionality as airtags and have a much wider user base for the crowd-locating functionality

Which tile? Mate/pro? Every time I thought one was better I found an article recommending the other and then another saying they weren't a patch on the airtag

They all do the same thing, get the cheapest one

On sale now.. this is a 3 year one but without battery replacement.

In saying that I got loads of the old Tile 2020s with battery replacement and I have to replace the battery about twice a year. But I lose keys every week!

These are normally €25+ btw so a bargain at €16.55 Especially if you've Prime .

Range is 60m but I suspect walls will reduce that .

The range is a bit of an issue BUT if you lost the keys miles away it'll ping off of anyone else with a tile and give you a rough location which kind of reminds you if you were in a certain shop or football field. Then when you get there you can walk around and listen for the tune.
