Moto Tag 2 goes beyond object tracking and lasts much longer than AirTags 

It offers a 500-day user-replaceable battery, Ultra Wideband for centimeter-level tracking, and a durable IP68 build.

Motorola’s CES 2026 slate was pretty packed. Aside from the barrage of new PC hardware from sister company Lenovo, the company revealed its first book-style foldable phone and a new smartwatch developed in partnership with Polar. Flying under the radar was another reveal that will appeal to an even broader audience. 

The big draw

The latest in lifestyle tech from the company is the Moto Tag 2, and this one could very well outshine Apple’s AirTags in a few key areas. To start, Motorola claims that its new object tracker can last 500 days before it requires a battery swap. 

For comparison, the AirTags offer an advertised battery longevity of one year. The battery fitted inside the Moto Tag 2 is user-replaceable. And just in case you’re wandering, it’s the coin-shaped CR2032 standard that is easily available out there.

It also throws a couple of cool features into the mix. The onboard button can be used as a remote camera shutter trigger when paired with a phone. Additionally, it can do reverse location tracking for your connected device.

Going the extra mile

“Aside from finding your belongings, the Moto Tag 2 can also help people locate their phone. They can press the tag’s button to ring the device and find the phone even on silent,” explains the company. This feature comes to life thanks to support for Bluetooth Channel Sounding. 

Another big draw is support for Ultra Wideband connectivity, which enables centimeter-level accuracy for location tracking with lower latency. The build is IP68 rated for resilience against dust and water exposure. 

As far as ecosystem and connectivity features go, the Moto Tag 2 offers Remote Camera capture, Find My Phone, Location Sharing, and Google Find Hub integration. Available in a single Pantone Laurel Oak color, the tracker doesn’t have a price attached to it, yet, but available details will be announced soon.

A new report suggests the extra memory is aimed at keeping Apple Intelligence running smoothly.

Apple's next iPhone may not get a dramatic RAM upgrade, but it could receive just enough extra memory to keep its growing AI ambitions running smoothly. According to TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the standard iPhone 18 and iPhone 18e are expected to move from 8GB to 9GB of RAM, primarily to support deeper Apple Intelligence integration in iOS 27.

This free iPhone app uses soothing haptics to help you calm down
This iOS app skips accounts and subscriptions, relying on touch alone to help you relax.

Most mindfulness apps want you to create an account, buy subscription, and give a chunk of your attention before they help you unwind. Vän, a new iPhone app from Swiss indie developer Adrian Stanco, is built to be the opposite.

I found the app on Reddit, and the pitch alone made me curious enough to try it. Instead of sounds or endless scrolling, it leans entirely on haptics, the tiny vibrations your phone is already capable of producing. The result is a feeling of calm you get by simply holding your smartphone rather than watching the screen.
