Tile has announced that its latest line of personal tracker devices come with an upgraded Bluetooth range of up to 500 meters (~1,640 feet) in the new Pro variant. The new series also includes updated Mates and Stickers, not to mention an all-new Slim version for wallets. All 4 new trackers are rated to be sleeker, louder, and safer than their predecessors with the integration of Life360 SOS alerts.

Tile asserts that its entire 2024 range of Apple AirTag rivals is equipped with a louder ringer across the board - even the smallest Sticker variant touted to fit on anything from a bike to a TV remote.

Its larger Mate and Pro siblings, on the other hand, have built-in rings for keychains and are, thus, pitched at use-cases such as keeping track of things such as backpacks, camera bags or suitcases. Each member of the new series also comes with a "refined" design compared to their predecessors for increased "convenience".

On that note, Tile has also introduced a brand-first Slim variant to join them, with a build more suited to wallets, passport-holders or laptop sleeves.

The new trackers are the first hardware products to be released by Tile since the OEM became a Life360 company, which means they can activate branded SOS alerts when their integrated buttons are pressed 3 times.

The alerts are rated to send the tracker's location and a notification to designated emergency contacts and circle members via the Life360 app. They are free to all Tile users, although more advanced features such as Stolen Phone Protection and Roadside Assistance are paywalled behind the company's various subscriptions.

The latest Tile trackers start from now at $24.99 for Sticker, Mate or Slim 1-packs, although multi-pack bundles are also already available on Amazon. The new Pro version, on the other hand, will go for $34.99 on its early October 2024 release.
