Tile Launches New 'Pro' Bluetooth Trackers: Up to 2X Range, Twice as Loud, and More Water Resistant

[Laird Knox]

What’s up with all this “Pro” hype? It’s just a better tile, so “Pro” is used to justify the higher price?

It is also GMO free.

It is also GMO free.

Then we should also see Pro cucumbers, lemons, etc.

It is also GMO free.

And gluten free too plus free range plastic.

If you look hard enough I'm sure you will find them.

And you just get a new one when the battery dies? Wow, just wow. (I hope they run out of VC funding real soon)

[doublepost=1502830145][/doublepost]I bought a 4 pack of the Trackr devices. They would CONSTANTLY lose their connection, so when you needed it, it was non-functional. The batteries lasted somewhere around several weeks. The aluminum case would twist on my key ring and end up mangled and with sharp edges. They were just plain awful. I saw no redeeming value to them whatsoever. I then bought the Tile and it works all the time, every time. Would it be nice to have replaceable/rechargeable battery? Sure. However, you get 40% off when you replace your Tile. If you bought the $25 Tile, you get a brand new one for $15 after a year. It's about $4 to buy the flat batteries that most devices this size use, so effectively, the device itself is getting replaced for $11 plus the battery. BTW, the Trackr's with a replaceable battery do not look waterproof or even water resistant to me, whereas the new Sport Tile is water resistant to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes, I believe.
Also, the Trackr devices were so low volume, that when you tried to find your keys, you better hope you're already within 3 feet or you won't hear it.
