Chipolo was mentioned in the Find My Device presentation during IO 23. Looking into them I found that they’re based in Slovenia. That puts them firmly under EU privacy and general regulation. If you’re in the market for such a device, this might not be a bad option. I’m currently using Tile but I pre-ordered Chipolo to try.

    Think I’m going to hold off until the next Google hardware event, there are rumoured to be UWB trackers in the works

      What makes UWB better than this? Just the fact that UWB can pinpoint the exact location? or are you just more interested in official Google offerings?

      I picked up a 4 pack of these because they are currently 30% off pre-order. I suspect Googles version will be “premium” like Apple, and they’ll cost more.

        Yeah it’s just the precision finding. I’m sure the Chipolo ones will be great though, I think the version they made compatible with Apple’s Find My network had better Bluetooth range than the official Airtags

          Precision finding for me not really important when you can ring them from a distance. Also I have a Pixel7 so no UWB.
