The Samsung Galaxy SmartTag is set to be Samsung’s Tile tracker rival, and it’s probably out soon.
January 14 looks to be a big day for Samsung, as it’s holding an event where we’re expecting to see the Samsung Galaxy S21 range. But alongside that we’ll probably also see the Samsung Galaxy SmartTag. This is rumored to be a Bluetooth-powered object tracker, that would work a lot like the popular Tile trackers and the long-rumored Apple AirTags – essentially it looks to be a small object that you can attach to a keyring or lanyard, or chuck in a purse or wallet, so that if you ever lose those valuables you could find them via your phone using the SmartTag’s Bluetooth. While nothing has yet been confirmed about the Galaxy SmartTag, it’s been leaked enough that we have a good idea of what to expect, all of which you’ll find below. The Samsung Galaxy SmartTag is rumored to be launching on January 14, alongside the Samsung Galaxy S21 range. While that’s not yet confirmed, it certainly seems like it must be landing soon, as it’s been quite extensively leaked now, as well as having been certified in multiple places (something which usually happens close to launch) and even getting a mention in the Samsung SmartThings app. An announcement on January 14 would almost certainly mean the SmartTag arrives before Apple’s AirTags, despite the latter having been rumored for a lot longer.
