A major change likely coming to the next generation of Galaxy SmartTags is better range. The existing lineup of Samsung SmartTags has an approximate range of 120 meters using Bluetooth connectivity, but according to the report, this range could see further improvements this year. There is also talk about the base model SmartTag finally getting UWB (Ultra Wide Band) support for more accurate tracking — a feature restricted to the more expensive SmartTag Plus.
One of the major drawbacks of the existing SmartTag models is mediocre battery life compared to the competition. Samsung Smart Tags, on average, have a battery life of less than six months; which may look good in isolation, but pales in comparison to the AirTag’s one-year battery life. With the upcoming new models, Samsung could fix this flaw, though it’s unclear to what degree.
Even though object-tracking devices have been around for several years now, this segment continues to be plagued by privacy concerns, including unauthorized device tracking. Samsung is expected to take several steps to reduce instances of unauthorized tracking with its next generation SmartTags. The upcoming SmartTag models could open up newer opportunities and features for existing SmartTag owners, including the ability to control several smart home features.
Samsung is expected to announce a refresh of the Galaxy SmartTag lineup with the company’s next major “Unpacked” launch event.
