We are already with 2021 well started and we still don't see the AirTags, Apple's locator tags Of which we have been talking for months waiting for their imminent launch and yet they have not yet seen the light. What are the reasons for this delay?
Apple already has its AirTags ready, some labels that we can place on any object to always have it well located using our iPhone, and that will use the U1 chip to know its location very precisely. Its launch was expected in the fall of 2020., since their production is already underway and they only need to be presented and put on sale, but they are making themselves wait which is causing many to start thinking about something similar to what happened with the AirPower charging base . But nothing is further from the truth, the reasons for this delay are quite different, and it is expected that they will arrive sooner rather than later.
According to Jon Prosser the AirTags are not yet for sale because Apple thinks this is not a good time for its launch. With everything that is happening in the world due to the damn COVID-19 pandemic, it seems that in Cupertino they are waiting for a better moment to unveil this new device, and is also taking the opportunity to finalize some details that are still to be polished, as the method they will use to be able to attach them to objects. They could have added a magnet to fix them to objects, but it would not be a good idea because if we put them in a wallet they could damage credit cards, so they have to think of another method.
Apple already has a keychain ready that will be sold separatelyWe even already have images of other keyrings that manufacturers such as NOMAD or Spigen already have almost ready for AirTags, being ideal for not losing the house keys. But what if we want to fix them to our card holder? Or a photo camera? Prosser assures us that the launch of these AirTags will be in the month of March, while we have already seen the animations that will be shown during the link to our iPhone, and we have also seen the response of Samsung, somewhat accelerated to be able to anticipate the launch of Manzana.
