Samsung is already expected to unveil its Tile-like Galaxy SmartTag Bluetooth Tracker at the Galaxy Unpacked event on January 14. Now, a fresh report by 91Mobiles says that a SmartTag+ will accompany the regular variant.
Once again, Ishan Agarwal, through his reliable tip, says that there will be a ‘+’ edition of Galaxy SmartTag. Accordingly, the SmartTag+ will have a model number EI-T7300. If you recall, the EI-T5300 belongs to the regular SmartTag courtesy of NCC, EUIPO trademark, Indonesia Telecom, and more.
While the report doesn’t delve much into the SmartTag+’s features, it does say that both of them will have Black, Oatmeal, Denim Blue, and Mint color variants. As for the regular SmartTag, the measurement will be around 4cmx4cmx1cm and weight 13g.

In addition to locating your objects via Bluetooth 5.1, you can expect it to have end-end encryption and ‘Privacy ID’ features. If you recall, an earlier EUIPO trademark for the SmartTag shows that it could also support UWB(Ultra Wide Band), interfacing with NFC, and RFID.
If that isn’t enough Ishan says that it will auto-connect to Galaxy devices, ring the phone on pressing a button twice, and share location with your kith and kin. Coming back, our guess is that the Galaxy SmartTag+, as the name suggests, might have a bit of exclusive features to position itself higher.
The Galaxy SmartTag series will add to the tally of trackers like SmartThings Tracker in 2018. It will have a ubiquitous design of a typical Bluetooth Tracker found in the market. That is, a square shape with rounded corners and a lanyard hole for strap/thread. Early reports also state that the SmartTag will be priced at around ₹1,350($18.44).
