Apple AirTag Generation 2 Launched in India

Apple has officially introduced the AirTag Generation 2 in the Indian market. The new version is more powerful than its predecessor, featuring extended Bluetooth range, a louder speaker, and a new Ultra Wideband chip. According to Apple, users can now locate their belongings faster and more easily than before.

The tracker is designed for people who frequently misplace essentials such as keys, wallets, or bags. With improved Precision Finding and a new sound chime, locating hidden or misplaced items has become significantly easier.

New Ultra Wideband Chip Enhances Precision Finding

The new AirTag is powered by a second-generation Ultra Wideband (UWB) chip. This is the same chip used in the iPhone 17 series, iPhone Air, Apple Watch Ultra 3, and Apple Watch Series 11.

Thanks to this upgraded chip, Precision Finding is now more accurate, allowing users to locate lost items from up to 50 percent greater distance compared to the previous generation.

Bigger Bluetooth Range and Louder Speaker

Apple AirTag Generation 2 comes with an upgraded Bluetooth chip that enables item tracking from a longer range. Additionally, the built-in speaker is 50 percent louder than before.

According to Apple, users can now hear the AirTag’s sound from double the previous distance, making it easier to find misplaced items indoors or in crowded environments.
