The 2.4GHz band penetrates solid objects well, but case designers need to be mindful of materials that have the potential to block the signal.
Amazon air tag holder Bluetooth#
–David PriceĪn AirTag regularly broadcasts 2.4GHz Bluetooth signals with an encrypted device ID for other Apple devices to pick up and relay along with those devices’ locations. If the price tag puts you off, Orbitkey also makes a much cheaper Slim Case with a similar locking system. It’s less likely to get scuffed than with the other key rings we tried out. This does also give the AirTag far more protection than Apple’s version. The key ring thus takes up more room in your pocket than it needs to. It has more space than it needs and wobbles around slightly inside the pocket.

The only real quibble is that the leather fob is quite a lot bigger than the AirTag itself. The second advantage lies in the innovative way keys are attached: an initially baffling locking system that, once mastered, is far quicker and easier (and far less painful) than prising apart the traditional two-layer ring with your fingernails. Whereas Apple’s broad, flat ring can be awkward for attaching car keys with a narrow aperture, this will fit into holes of the smallest dimensions. One is the slenderness of the ring itself. It costs roughly the same as Apple’s Leather Key Ring but it has a nice-looking design and a couple of advantages up its sleeve. Orbitkey‘s leather offering is well worth your consideration.
