Samsung is rumored to be launching the next iteration of its Galaxy SmartTag tracker later this year, and reports suggest that the new device will come with significant improvements across various features. The second-generation SmartTag is said to have a longer wireless range, better security features to prevent unauthorized tracking, and a longer-lasting battery than its predecessor.

One of the key criticisms of the original SmartTag was that it only worked with other Samsung products. There is no word yet on whether this exclusivity will continue with the new SmartTag. However, it is expected that the device will come with improved SmartThings integration to make it easier for users to track their belongings.

According to the Korean news outlet Naver, Samsung is planning to unveil the new SmartTag at its upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event in August. The event is also expected to feature the launch of other Samsung products, including the Galaxy Z Fold 5, Galaxy Z Flip 5, Galaxy Watch 6, and Galaxy Buds 3.

The Galaxy Buds 3 are another highly anticipated launch from Samsung. However, details on this updated generation of earbuds are currently scarce. It is unclear what improvements or new features Samsung has in store for the Galaxy Buds 3.

Meanwhile, Google is also reportedly planning to launch its own smart tracker, codenamed “grogu,” at its annual developer conference, Google I/O, in May. The move is expected to intensify competition in the smart tracker market.
