If you have a recent iPhone, you no longer have to worry about losing your keys or wallet. Apple’s AirTags make it easy to keep track of your stuff and find it when you misplace it. And now you can stock up on these trackers more affordably, getting a single tracker for $19 and a four-pack for $70 before the holiday travel season. AirTags are already a good deal for all their capabilities, but scoring a couple of bucks off never hurts.
If you’ve wanted to invest in an AirTag but weren’t willing to splurge on an entire pack, this single AirTag is great at tracking luggage ahead of any upcoming travel and is down to the best Amazon price ever at $5 under our previous mention.
Right now you can save some cash on a pack of four AirTags. While the list price is $99, this bundle of handy luggage trackers usually hovers around $90.
Apple’s AirTags are a little bigger than a coin cell battery — surprisingly, they run on coin cell batteries — but despite their size, they offer impeccable tracking abilities. Powered by the Apple Find My network, the AirTags can ping nearby devices via Bluetooth to share their most recent location. And since there are so many iPhone, iPad and Mac users around the country and globe, there’s a good chance your AirTag will turn up even if you’ve lost it in some far-flung place. And if your AirTag turns up, so should whatever item you attached it to.
While the Find My network will get you close, the AirTags have a special trick to get you even closer. Using the ultra-wideband radios inside the iPhone 12 and newer models, your phone can point you in the direction of the missing AirTag and indicate how far away it is. When you’re right on top of it, you can have it play a sound. Just like that: You’ll have found your missing luggage, wallet, purse, bicycle — you name it.
With so much to keep track of, maybe that four-pack isn’t such a bad idea. Otherwise, just shop all the week’s other electronics deals.
How we found these AirTag deals
We’re always on the lookout for deals on anything that Apple makes. AirTags are particularly at the top of our minds with the holiday travel season around the corner. Our senior deals editor, Rikka Altland, was actually talking with her dad about him needing a set of item finders before an upcoming trip. So, when she spotted today’s deals, she knew they were worth sharing. Just think of this as Rikka looping you into the same shopping advice she gives her own family.
