This time of the year is generally busier for travel, and with that comes added stress. There’s always a lingering worry that your bag might get lost while in transit. With an AirTag tucked inside your luggage, however, you can see exactly where it is at any given moment — even if it’s halfway across the world. Luckily, you can grab a four-pack of Apple’s handy location trackers at Amazon and Walmart for $64.99 ($35 off), which remains the lowest price we’ve seen. Apple’s AirTag remains our top pick if you’re an iPhone owner looking for a Bluetooth tracker. The compact location trackers set themselves apart from many alternatives by tapping into Apple’s vast Find My network, making it possible to locate your belongings even if they’re no longer within Bluetooth range. If you do lose an item, you can set it as lost in the system, and you’ll be notified once it comes into range of an iPhone or iPad. You can even share the location of a lost AirTag with other people, including more than 15 airlines. Additionally, Apple’s trackers feature ultra wideband technology, which enables support for “precision finding” with iPhone 15 series phones or newer. Once you’re in range of the tracker, the Find My app can show you the exact distance and direction to go. AirTags also have a built-in speaker, so you can play a sound to easily pinpoint your misplaced item if it’s hiding out of sight, like under your laundry. In terms of hardware, AirTags offer user-replaceable batteries that last about a year, so you can reuse the tracker you already have. They’re also relatively durable thanks to their IP67 rating for water and dust resistance.
