Moto Tag (2024)

Motorola also unveiled the Moto Tag - a Bluetooth Low Energy tracker with Ultra Wideband to tack onto your belongings to track using Google's Find My Device network.

When paired with an Android smartphone, which supports Ultra Wideband, like the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra, the Moto Tag also offers improved precision tracking but this feature is pending future UWB integration in the Find My Device network by Google.

The Moto Tag's expected battery life is "an entire year on a single charge" and it's also user-replacable as it's a standard CR2032 cell. The IP67 rating ensures you can bring it everywhere with you.

The Moto Tag has a multifunctional button, which allows you to find your phone and can also be used as a remote camera controller.

The Moto Tag is compatible with iOS and Android's unwanted tracker alerts, to ensure users don't have unwanted trackers on their person or luggage.

Curiously, the design of the Moto Tag is quite like the Apple AirTag so you can use all third-party accessories made for Apple's tracker.

$999 is still relatively affordable compared to its closest rival. Not only Samsung's current Z Flip5 is more expensive, but it will get more expensive with the upcoming Z Flip6.

If you don't sell off your flip phone after using it for some time and if you want to keep using it you will have to replace 2 batteries instead of 1. So no flips for me. With a battery at only 4000mAh that especially holds true for t...
