AirTag 2 Launching Later in These Countries
The second-generation AirTag is available to order now in the U.S. and dozens of other countries, but it is launching later in some other countries.
According to Apple's website, the new AirTag will be launching at a later date in these countries:
- Brazil
- Indonesia
- Malaysia
- The Philippines
- Singapore
- South Korea
- Taiwan
- Thailand
- Vietnam
In South Korea, Apple will begin accepting orders for the new AirTag on January 28 (local time), so orders should begin imminently in that country. In many of the other countries listed above, however, Apple simply says the new AirTag is coming soon.
The new AirTag features longer range for both Bluetooth and Precision Finding item tracking, a louder speaker, and some other minor changes.
