Got the smarttag+ to use with my cat... Love it - but wished they released a small version like an airtag as this fits my cat much better

The button is a big big plus for me. You didn't say it but it's customizabile. I use it to turn on/off the lights in my room.

I’ll never understand why Apple refused to sell these things with a ring.

AirTags have the backing of the iPhone community While the Android community is also large, the Samsung-only community is smaller.

You can’t just say the Samsung tags last so and so amount of time in “power saving mode” and not explain what “power saving mode is and how long they’d last not in it.

I got a Samsung Tag2 from their site when i purchased a S23+. I am 72 and my memory isn't what it once was. I set it up. Shortly thereafter i went on a 12 day trip and upon returning, i couldn't find it. My phone says that it "isn't connected", but the location mode says that it is somewhere in my house/garage. After a few days going from room to room, phone in hand, and not finding it, i called Samsung. Upon proof of purchase they agreed to "replace" it. All I had to do was "send in the original". That wasn't possible as the original was missing and couldn't be found! It took 2 conversations. The followed up and called me back. A replacement was sent. I am a long time Tile user and i am comparing the two.

A ring accessory is cheap enough to buy and the form factor makes it easier to buy in things like wallets.

I like how Apples doesn’t come with a ring because I use the AirTag on the side of my dogs collar. The Samsung one would have to fling around like a keychain on his collar which would be annoying for him since he is a very small dog.

These tags need to be rechargeable wireless would be a great bonus 👌

we need that AR feature to track our buds ngl

I'm a hardcore Samsung Galaxy guy, but I'm not stupid enough to believe that this Samsung SmartTag will ever come close to the crowdsourced location tracking of the AirTag... Basically, every iPhone released since the iPhone 6S in 2015 is reporting back to Apple every time it sees an AirTag. Ain't no fucking way there are enough compatible Samsung Galaxy devices out in the wild for this to work with any level of reliability.

Functionally they’re better. The only issue is if they’re like AirTags, there are a lot more iPhones (at least where I live) compared to Samsung or even other manufacturers. So it may not be as precise.

Side note the smarttags2 actually work on all devices that have the Samsung smart things app installed on it. If you have an iPhone you can get it because if you buy Samsung tv/fridge/washingmachine you can controller it from your phone. So if smart things is installed your Bluetooth will still ping the smarttag2.

So the reason why they are better is the built-in ring? What if I want a smaller tag to hide it (eg in my car or for my pet??} I’d say Apple did it better for giving you the choice. And a case with ring is added protection. Besides I’m using my AirTag now for almost 2,5 years in my car without battery change… this short seems bullshit for me.

The thing about AirTags is that they’re so small

Why would you want it in power saving mode though-

Finding your phone is a nice feature, and while it would be nice if AirTags came with some kind of ring out of the box , the Samsung ones are significantly bigger, making them less convenient in the situations when you don’t need a ring.

Smart tag: last update 2 weeks ago when someone with a Samsung passed through the state

Tiles have been doing this for a while, and while the seamless integration isn't there they are still very handy

Anyone remember tile? They work universally

But its never been about the size, the likelihood of an iphone coming near an airtag and pinging is much higher than a samsung doing the same….if samsung tags could work with android as a whole then it would be an even comparison….apple easily wins here

Sir ka formula revison dekh lo bhai kafi hai physics ke lie ❤

How much are they?

I lost my smarttag a few days ago, app cant locate it nor play the sound, it just says that its at my house

Okay what sucks about these though is that the built in ring hinders some of its applications. AirTags were built without a ring so that you could buy or 3D print your own special holder for whatever job you want it to do. And personally I think AirTags just look cleaner but I love that Matte Black Samsung has. Both have their pros and cons.

I wish there was a way for these trackers to be cross compatible. Currently in the US, the apple airtags are more useful just because more people use Iphones, but if you travel abroad it might be different.

You can also control smart devices with your Samsung tag. Like turning certain lights on and off if they're compatible

In America, where Apple holds majority market share, Air Tags are better, because Air Tags communicate their location by connecting to other iPhones in the area and sending its location. Even if Samsung had the same functionality, the probability that your lost item connects to a Samsung and pings its location is lower than IPhone.

Remember when Samsung made fun of apples unoriginality?

the main innovation i'm looking for from these tracking tags is even smaller frames and more applicability. i'd really like to track my headphones, but i don't currently have a way to stick either an airtag or any other device onto them. i dream someday of having tracking stickers (i know this is likely a long way off if not impossible)

I've watched a few tests of both tags and the Smart Tags 2 were terrible at pinging the location. Hopefully they get an update.

AirTags are better, sort of - larger network with more users. There are more iPhone users than Samsung users in the west so better network coverage for AirTags

Still waiting for the part where you tell us why this is better than an AirTag

Oh and it also shows you a path of which the tag has been travelling. Not just the latest location.

It’s also possible that you will be able to eventually pair your Samsung tag with your car app so you can use the tag as your key fob without your phone! :)

Ow great! How much for the Airtags?

The ring may be good in the case of keys, but the airtags are smaller, so you can fit them in more tight places. Also you can choose the key rings for your liking. And the most important thing is the find my network, android have a larger marketshare, but since the tags work only on samsung phones, probably the airtag with find my network is better.

My AirTag lasted over a year I got it when they first came out and the battery in mine Is still working today

Not to mention you can use the Samsung tag with SmartThings to do smart things at home. Like tuning in or off devices/lights when the fat comes within a set distance of your house Or use the button on it to also trigger devices aswell

Smaller footprint is actually a good thing for my use cases. I hide AirTags in my backpack, laptop sleeve, pencil bag (fountain pens, iykyk). I’d also say it’s not necessarily a bad thing I need a case/holder for the AirTag on my keychain. The one on my keychain still looks new & Nomad makes some great Apple accessories that look better than the Samsung tag does without a case.

Tagging is about network. You are waiting for a broke ah to walk past your lost keys

Good compeition, lets see them upgrade the airtags hopefully.

Can this be used to track your suitcases at an airport?

The ring is a flaw to me. It makes the thing bigger and easier to break.

I care about precision not a hole for my keys

The whole point of its smaller form factor is for it to be stuck to different things and not be noticeable by thieves for example sticking it under the seat of a bicycle. If I need it in a keychain we have that option as well. There will only be 1 among all we get which we use in a keychain. The rest wouldn't.

i have my free tag and buds coming when i ordered my s24 ultra would be cool to test the smart tag for myself when it comes

Here if u think apple needs to create AirTag2 👇🏻

Samsung has been better than apple for years now

I need a pixel tag now.

Can I take the speaker out and use it for my car? Is there enough ecosystem out there to ping accurately anywhere?

"Great review! Does it have a feature where an alarm is triggered on the phone if the tag goes out of range from the phone? This would be useful to prevent leaving behind either the phone or the tagged item. Thanks!"

The ability to ping your phone is why I love my apple watch so much

I have the smarttsg 1 whats new with the smarttag 2

Samsung should send out an update to all Samsung phones so that they can all detect and send back location details to nearby smart tags so that it can be as accurate as the smart tag (this is how smart tags work too)

can you use it on other android phones ?

Tile works on both iOS and Android

until you flash your phone or install apk to use the samsung ones

Why the is no rewind button or bar to choose a moment to rewind?

If you're using Android, use third party options, these are a lot better than Samsung's and support a wider range of devices, not just Samsung phones. If you're using IOS, just stick to Airtag

Can you change the battey of the smart tag just curious ?

So what’s great about this is it handles good (minus getting out of a parking space) and they made it.

People have crazy money

If your in the us, get air tags much more precise. But outside I would go with Samsungs line up

@RamalMedia, what's the difference between the smart tag+ and smart tag 2?? A bigger battery that's it?

It looks like credits in starfield

Only for Samsung devices? Or Android in general?

Just Samsung or ANY android?

Don't forget you can use the button for smarthome commands

When did Neon get into tech videos lmao

Or use a Tile; platform independent and has a small key ring holder

So it is android compatible or Samsung compatible only ? Ik ss is android too

That’s why I liked tile. Ping my phone is priceless

How many can you tag at one time? Can I place tags on my jetski, pocketbook and suitcase at same time for them to all be able to be traced??

How do you find the smart tag with ar??

I have both. I gotta say AirTag is so much better. The Smart Tag doesn't move while a person is moving while the AirTag tracks the person while they are moving.

It's always so baffling when last week he says money does not matter anymore for him as long as he like the game COD is on the verge of wagequit a game he said he wont buy lol

Can i track remote far locations on map without UWB or i can track only signals around me in bluetooth area?

Does it only work on specific Samsung phones, and do they work on ant Samsung Devices like headphones, earbuds, etc...?

Apples desicion to sell the air tag case thingy with the loop must have made it so much money because everyone bought both because the loop is like the only way to attach them to keys

Me thinking he was going to say 500 years 😂

I wish apple would open up the findmy network as a open standard, imagine

How to charge it

what samsung phone did he show in the video? it looks fancyyy

Air tags can be used on Samsungs aswell

I prefer buying a separate AirTag accessory to suit my needs. I can get a keyring for my keys, a luggage tag for my luggage, a protective magnetic case for my car, a dog collar for a pet, etc. It's good having options.

Combine them both to make the ultimate tag

I hope there are other type which more slimmer... but bigger is fine...

I'm disappointed with mine, they track very poorly to movements in real time. I bought one to put on my dog for tracking his walks and it's practically ornamental. Didn't track a thing

Can u explain how could we connect with phone

We need the G Spot!😂

i enjoy getting an alert on my samsung that says an airtag is traveling with you and it fucking allows you to make a sound. best feature to make some else go wtf

Replaceable battery?

It’s the size that breaks the deal for me. The button is also just annoying as I keep accidentally pressing it when it’s in my pocket…

Can you charge them?

U can track any tag apple or Samsung with an app off the app store

Did everyone forget about Tile? If I remember correctly they were one of the first mainstream locators. They make integrated products like key organizers and wallet finders. Not sure how well they do now or compared to the competition.

While you lot have been getting locked in to one brand Tile has been going for years. It's only missing the UWB feature but it works well enough in my experience, having found and recovered multiple items with it

Can you connect them with iPhone?
