This tracker and iPhone finder are currently a cheaper alternative to AirTags.
It's no secret that Apple charges a premium for its products—aside from some of its flagships, like MacBook laptops, it's pretty baffling to charge $59 for an iPhone case, especially when you can find cheaper alternatives that work just as well. At a regular price of $29, individual AirTags aren't all that expensive, but this is a product most people will likely want to get several of, so the price can rack up fast. AirTags are currently discounted a few bucks, but to save even more, check out the Eufy Security SmartTrack Card.
The Eufy Security SmartTrack Card is a great, cheaper alternative to AirTags. (The biggest downside is the battery is not replaceable, so it will only last you three years.) Right now, you can get a SmartTrack Card for $16.98 (originally $29.99). This is the lowest price I have seen for this product after checking price-checking tools. The SmartTrack Card is designed like a credit card, making it much easier to fit in wallets or phone case sleeves. Eufy's tracker works with Apple's Find My app, so you can still track your other devices in the same app as this tracker. Keep in mind that Eufy's security app is not as user-friendly as Apple's Find My app, but you can just use Apple's instead.
You can choose to find your belongings via Bluetooth or remotely via Apple's Find My network. If you decide to use Bluetooth, you will need the Eufy Security app. If you go with the remote option, you can use Apple's Find My app that's pre-installed into Phones, iPads, and Apple Watches. You can read more about the SmartTrack in PCMag's "excellent" review here.
