One of the Apple products that is taking the longest is undoubtedly the AirTags. Several months have passed since its presentation was taken for granted with numerous rumors about its operation and also its design. That is why it could finally be the first product we see from Apple in 2021 . We tell you all the details that can lead to making this assumption of an imminent launch.
AirTags: an open secret at Apple
It is known to all that the Cupertino company plans to launch imminently a new accessory that allows you to be tracked at any time. The AirTags would aim to help us find a race that we have lost and even our own car. Through the iPhone you could track the location of the accessory and all this without the need for it to be connected to the internet. This would be achieved thanks to the U1 chip that can act as a simple beacon and that we already see implemented in the iPhone. Obviously Apple would already have thought of being able to disable the U1 chip to avoid tracking, although this will simply make the AirTags meaningless.
We say that it is an open secret, because the company itself has ‘leaked’ its existence on numerous occasions. All this without launching them on the market at the moment. Without going any further, in the different versions of iOS, more than clear evidence of its implementation in the iPhone software has been found . This is not something new since there have been many future news from the company that have been reflected in the iOS code. Already in April 2020 it could be observed within the options of ‘Find my iPhone’ as a description it clearly referred to the AirTags.
And without leaving the operating system, the Search application itself implements in iOS 14.3 a section that is hidden right now where objects to be found would be displayed. These objects would be those that can be found thanks to the AirTag as a wallet. This clearly indicates that the launch of the AirTags is practically imminent as they are preparing the ground for it. This could clearly be the first product to be launched in 2021, enforcing reports from different analysts on its launch as well.
Their covers can already be found on Amazon
Beyond the software, you can find others indicative of the imminent launch of the AirTags. On Amazon itself you can find today different covers of the Spigen or DamonLight brand. This has been achieved in large part thanks to Jon Prosser.
The prestigious leaker published a series of images where you could see the design of these AirTags in theory because he had been able to visualize them from the access of a senior official in the company. The design would initially be circular and built with top quality materials. The great mystery continues to be the price it could have, although similar competing devices like Tile do not have a high price, Apple may end up surprising with its proposal when they are surely presented in this first quarter.
