I'm Replacing the Trackers for These 4 Items With Apple's 'AirTags 2'

CNET reviews Apple’s second‑generation AirTag and finds the incremental hardware improvements — expanded Precision Finding range, louder speaker and Apple Watch locating — make it worth swapping for users who rely on trackers. Priced at $99 retail (or $29 single), the AirTag 2 is likely to produce modest incremental revenue for Apple via accessory and replacement purchases rather than a material near‑term earnings shift. The story reinforces Apple’s ecosystem stickiness (Find My, Watch, iPhone) which supports services and accessory demand, a small positive for Apple’s consumer hardware cycle and recurring‑ecosystem monetization.
