AirTag 2 vs. AirTag 1: 50% Better Range, Same $29 Price
Apple's new tracker is here, but the upgrade decision isn't obvious.
Deep Dive
Apple has released the second-generation AirTag at the same $29 price. The key upgrade is a 50% larger Precision Finding range, allowing tracking from 27 feet vs. the old 18 feet. It also features a louder speaker. However, rumored changes like a built-in loop or new shape did not materialize. The original AirTag remains available, creating a clear choice between discounted old stock and the new, more precise model.
Why It Matters
Deciding between models depends on whether you value maximum precision or a potential discount on the older version.
