Apple AirTag rivals from Motorola, Xiaomi expected soon
Apple’s AirTags have long dominated the GPS tracking device market, but new contenders are emerging as Motorola and Xiaomi gear up to launch their own location trackers. According to various reports, Xiaomi is developing a device called the “Xiaomi Tag,” which was revealed through a Weibo post by tech leaker Repeater 002. While details about the Xiaomi Tag remain scarce, this move marks the company’s first foray into the location tracking space, signaling its intent to compete directly with Apple’s well-established product.
Motorola, on the other hand, is not new to the tracking game, as it already offers a product called the Moto Tag. Recent leaks from Android Headlines have unveiled a marketing image for the upcoming Moto Tag 2, which retains the circular design of its predecessor but introduces new color options, including orange and beige. The Moto Tag 2 is anticipated to feature enhanced tracking precision and improved battery life, positioning it as a more robust alternative to the original device. While specific release dates for both the Xiaomi Tag and Moto Tag 2 are still under wraps, the buzz surrounding these devices indicates a significant shift in the competitive landscape of location tracking technology.
As the market for GPS trackers continues to expand, the entry of Motorola and Xiaomi could challenge Apple’s dominance and offer consumers more options. With the growing reliance on tracking devices for personal items and pets, these new products may not only enhance user experience but also drive innovation in features and design. As we await further announcements from both companies, the potential rivalry between these tech giants promises to bring exciting developments to the world of location tracking.

As for Motorola, that company already has something called the Moto Tag. However,
Android Headlines
got the first marketing image of an unannounced Moto Tag 2, with a similar circular design to the first one and two new colors: orange and beige. Android Headlines said to expect a more precise tracker, probably with better battery life than the original.
It’s not yet known when either of these devices will launch, but it sure seems like they’re both happening.
