Up to 120 meters range with search from a mobile
Each tag allows the location of an object once the SmartTag has been placed on that object. With a square design, and with an opening for easy anchoring to what you want to find, simply register the Samsung SmartTag with the SmartThings service and can be located within a range of about 120 meters
The new Samsung labels have two versions: the normal SmartTag and the SmartTag +. Both are the same in design and functionality, but it is the improved model that allows for more precise placement; all thanks to Ultra Broadband, a technology that improves localization between devices.
IP53 resistor, made of plastic, with the possibility of being placed in a myriad of products, perfect for locating objects at close range and also for finding the phone itself: SmartTags have a button for the associated mobile to be discovered
Samsung Galaxy SmartTags do not use rechargeable batteries as they use CR2032 battery; which grants on paper an autonomy of 280 days. Once it runs out, you need to change the battery to keep the tags working.
Samsung Galaxy SmartTag price and availability
The new labels are now available in the Samsung store: they are priced at 34.90 dollars. This cost is per unit: only one SmartTag is provided in each package. We still don’t know the price or availability of the SmartThings +.
