Xiaomi Tag: All we know

The Xiaomi Tag is a compact Bluetooth tracker which is designed to help users locate everyday items like keys, wallets, luggage, or backpacks. It weighs just 10 grams and measures 7.2mm thick. What makes it interesting is its dual-network support as the tracker works with both Apple's Find My network and Google's Find Hub ecosystem.

However, it can only be connected to one network at a time. In simple terms, Android users can pair it with Google's tracking network, while iPhone users can set it up through Apple's system.

It uses Bluetooth 5.4 and NFC for connectivity but does not include ultra-wideband (UWB) support. That means it may not offer precision directional tracking like premium trackers, at least for now.

The Xiaomi Tag runs on a replaceable CR2032 coin battery, which Xiaomi claims can last up to one year under regular use. It also carries an IP67 rating to handle dust and water splash. Moreover, there's a built-in buzzer to help you locate nearby items, along with motion detection through an accelerometer.

Xiaomi Tag expected price

Retailer listings in Europe suggest a price of 17.99 for a single unit and 59.99 for a four-pack. Official global pricing will be confirmed during the event.
