Even Samsung is already looking for valuables
At the few hours old Unpacked January 2021 online conference, Samsung introduced not only a new flagship line of Galaxy S21 phones and Galaxy Buds Pro headphones, but also one completely new product. One that has been missing from his portfolio so far. The Korean company decided to manufacture and sell Bluetooth tracking tags. The novelty is heading to the market Samsung Galaxy SmartTag, whose specifications we will now go through.

The pendant’s location capabilities are based on Bluetooth (BLE), however, it relies on the recently introduced SmartThings Find software environment to communicate with other devices, especially phones. For this reason, the little helper is dependent only for Galaxy phones. And with Android 8.0 and later. In combination with them, however, it has a wide range of uses. You can hang it on keys, valuables, luggage or a pet collar and then find it reliably even at 120 meters. Alternatively, to search for any distance anonymously use other phones with SmartThings Find as “probes”. In addition, the pendant in the opposite guard can trigger the search signal on the mobile phone and can also be used as a button to control functions in a smart home.
The hardware specifications of the Samsung Galaxy SmartTag include dimensions of 39 x 39 x 9.8 mm, IP53 protection against dust and water and several months of battery life. SmartTag will be available on the Czech market from January 29, 2021 for 899 CZK. At first only in black and in the second half of February then also in light beige.
