According to rumors, almost three months have passed since Apple released new equipment for the last time, but Airtag may soon get an update.
Last year, BloombergMark Gurman said that a new Airtag will be released in the middle of 2025. In February, a leaker, known as Kosutami, claimed that Apple plans to release a new Airtag in May or June this year. If these timeframes remain accurate, an Airtag 2 may be launched within next month. If so, perhaps the Airtag 2 will be announced on Monday, 9 June during the WWDC 2025 Keenote.
Three upgrades have been rumored so far for Airtag 2:
- The second generation ultra wideband chip for a 3 × long range compared to the current Airtag. The chip started in iPhone 15 and Apple Watch Ultra 2. On the iPhone 15 and iPhone 16 models, there is an accurate discovery for the convenience of the people that can help you find your friends in crowded places, and it offers a series of up to 200 feet (about 60 m).
- A more tampering-proof speaker as a safety measure to reduce stacking.
- Better integration with Apple Vision Pro.
No major design change is expected.
The original Airtag was announced during an Apple event in April 2021. In the US, an individual airtag costs $ 29, and a set of four costs $ 99.
Other new devices announced by Apple this year include the iPhone 16E in February, followed by a series of update Mac and iPad models in March. The company also released Powerbeats Pro 2 Earbuds, a new Pride Edition Sport Band for Apple Watch, Beats Charging Cable and some other items.
