Apple's new AirTag introduces a series of small improvements, so how does it compare to the original model from 2021?
The second-generation AirTag arrives five years after the original, bringing improvements to tracking range, speaker output, and internal design while retaining the same outward design and accessory compatibility.
The second-generation AirTag is likely to benefit users who frequently rely on Precision Finding rather than approximate location.
Support for Precision Finding on compatible Apple Watch models also makes the newer AirTag more convenient for users who often leave their iPhone behind.
For new buyers, the second-generation AirTag simply offers the most complete feature set and greater flexibility going forward, acting as a moderate specification bump over the previous model.
