Apple’s AirTag 2 is expected to get an autumn release alongside the iPhone 17 family of devices, likely in September, 9to5Mac reports citing “reliable sources.”
• Second-Generation Ultra-Wideband (UWB) Chip: Expected to offer up to three times the tracking range (up to 200-300 feet or 60-90 meters) compared to the current AirTag’s U1 chip, improving Precision Finding accuracy. This chip debuted in the iPhone 15 and Apple Watch • Tamper-Proof Speaker: A redesigned speaker to make it harder to disable, enhancing anti-stalking measures by ensuring alerts remain audible. • Vision Pro/Spatial Computing Integration: Rumored compatibility with Apple’s Vision Pro headset, potentially enabling augmented reality (AR) tracking or 3D Precision Finding for more precise location visualization. • Improved Bluetooth Connectivity: Enhanced reliability for communication with Apple devices, as hinted by iOS 26 code updates. • Battery Life Improvements: Likely to retain the replaceable CR2032 battery but with better power efficiency for potentially longer battery life. • Similar Design, Possible Slim Variant: No major design overhaul expected, maintaining the circular puck shape. Some rumors suggest a slimmer, card-shaped version for wallets, but this is unconfirmed. • Enhanced Privacy Features: Stronger anti-stalking protections, such as improved unauthorized tracking alerts, building on existing Find My network safeguards.
