News & Reviews:   airtag

Samsung may be releasing Galaxy SmartTag 2 soon after unveiling the first version in 2021. Aptly named the Galaxy SmartTag 2, the South Korean tech giant’s answer to Apple AirTag was spotted in a retail listing recently, showing its design, features and even the price.

Google is reportedly in the midst of developing a Bluetooth tracker device to compete with the Apple AirTag. Codenamed ‘Grogu’, it is alleged that the Google Nest team is taking lead in the development of the tracker.

While the idea of tracking your missing items sounds like a great idea, some people have apparently abused the AirTag to stalk others. Launched last April, Apple just released a statement on an update on the AirTag and unwanted tracking. 

After the launch of AirTag that happened about half a year ago, Apple released an app called Tracker Detect for Android users to detect the smart tracker by connecting with the Find My network. The new app is now live on Google Play Store, and you can use it to help an Apple user out.

In May, Apple finally launched its tracking device - the Apple AirTags - in Malaysia. Since then, Samsung has launched its own version called the SmartTag, while OnePlus and OPPO are reportedly working on similar devices. Well, now we can add Xiaomi to the list too.

If you have been waiting for the new Apple iMac and AirTag to arrive, they are now available in the Malaysian market. You can visit the official Apple Malaysia website here and here respectively, and the prices start from RM5599 for the iMac whereas the AirTag is now RM129.

With the Apple AirTag's launch, some companies are looking to copy it. For instance, Samsung and OPPO are big brands that are already looking into this. But there are also smaller companies with similar item tracking devices, such as Chipolo.

So far, both Samsung and Apple have released a small device tracker to help you find misplaced items. This seems to be a trend now as OPPO will also have a Bluetooth tracking device. There's no official name yet (would be funny if we predict the name as O-Tag lol), but here's what we know so far.

Today, Apple has presented several products including the iPad Pro with M1 chip, 24-inch colourful iMacs, new purple iPhone 12/12 mini, and more. Surprisingly, the tech giant has also announced the long-awaited smart tracker dubbed AirTag at the event. Not only helping users to find lost items, but the device can also be engraved with custom emojis, words, and numbers. However, it is said that the company will limit users on expressing their creativity in some context.

Today, Apple made a big announcement on the new M1 iPad Pro and colourful iMacs. Besides that, the company also announced some mini news such as the long-rumoured Apple Card and AirTag, as well as a new iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini in purple finish. Here's everything you need to know about the things they announced earlier.
