    “If you’ve been hoping for a second-generation AirTag”

    People are clamoring for the second generation of a Bluetooth luggage tracker?

      Next gen will be a square with rounded edges. Oh and the pro version will come in dark gray! But personally I prefer the round ones so I‘ll wait for the 3rd generation.

      For a lot of Apple users it’s about flaunting that you have the latest toy. A multi year old device is not a good status symbol.

      Remember this is Apple we’re talking about. Gen 2 will introduce additional form factors and fanboys will call it “game changing”, “amazing”, and god knows what else.

        New form factor you say?

        Credit card sized trackers are handy for wallets.

            Honestly, there aren’t a lot of credit card sized trackers with a good tracking. Chipolo recently launched one with Find My support, but from what I can tell, most other credit card trackers are on pretty small networks.

                I was using those for the better part of a decade. Cut over to the AirTags recently. The tracking network is night and day.

                If Google’s rumored tracker launches as expected this year, and Android is also has a core tracking service that doesn’t require a third party app install, Tile’s days are numbered.
