Tile Vs Other Trackers

That s another reason we have a hard time recommending the mate these days which hasn t seen the same gains as tile s other trackers.

Tile vs other trackers.

You can still ring your tile or ring your phone from up to 200 feet away and because it s slimmer and a little lighter it s a breeze to carry around on your keychain or in your bag. Tile s trackers are great hardware and since tile has the largest network of devices and users you re more likely to find lost stuff using a tile tracker than with any other company s tracker. Should another device with the tile app installed be in range it sends an anonymous message to the tile owner to inform them of its location. Read our full tile mate 2020 review.

The tile mate is the classic tracker. Tile on the other hand is waterproof but the battery cannot be replaced and you would need to buy a new device. Tiles outside of bluetooth range use a crowd gps concept that searches for other tile users nearby. It has a range of 200 feet and a battery that should last three years.

As of 2020 there are four tile models. It also has a replaceable battery option which is better than rather buying a new tracker.
