Summary
Google’s Pixel Tag is now available to buy for $29.99, with a four-pack priced at $99.99, giving Android users Google’s first in-house item tracker after years of third-party options.
The tag works with Google’s Find Hub network and app, using Bluetooth, ultra-wideband and Bluetooth 6.0 Channel Sounding to help locate lost items — though precise finding depends on phone hardware support.
At 0.4 ounces, the oblong tracker is slightly lighter and thinner than Apple’s AirTag 2, adds a button to ring a misplaced phone, and is rated IP67 for dust and shallow water resistance.
Google says the Pixel Tag runs for more than a year on a CR2032 battery and supports Android 9 or later, but users need a UWB chip or Bluetooth 6.0-capable device to unlock its most accurate locating features.
