The new AirTag 2 features longer Bluetooth and Precision Finding ranges for tracking items in the Find My app, and a louder speaker.

The new AirTag has the same overall design as the original one, and it continues to be powered by a CR2032 coin cell battery with "more than a year" of battery life.

The new AirTag requires an iPhone running iOS 26.2.1 or later, according to Apple.

With the watchOS 26.2.1 update, Precision Finding on the Apple Watch Series 9 and later and Apple Watch Ultra 2 and later works with the second-generation AirTag. We have confirmed that this feature does not work with the original AirTag.
