Xiaomi Steps Into the Smart‑Tracker Game
One thing about Xiaomi is certain — the company never misses a trend. According to new reports, Xiaomi is working on a Bluetooth tracker device similar to Apple’s AirTag. The small gadget, rumored to be named Xiaomi Tag, is expected to launch soon and could join the brand’s fast‑growing accessories lineup.
Integration With Google’s Find My Device Network
While Xiaomi hasn’t released official details, insiders believe the Xiaomi Tag will connect directly with Google’s Find My Device Network.
That means you’ll be able to locate your keys, bags, or pets through a huge network of nearby Android phones — even when your tracker is offline.
Highlight: This network turns every Android smartphone into a potential signal booster for your lost item.
Rivaling Apple and Samsung
Until now, only two big players dominated the Android tracker scene:
- Samsung Galaxy SmartTag 2
- Motorola Moto Tag
If Xiaomi joins them, competition will heat up quickly. The most exciting part? Xiaomi’s tradition of lower pricing could make Bluetooth/item trackers accessible to far more users.
To compare: Samsung’s SmartTag 2 currently sells in India for around Rs- 2,166.13 Indian Rupee. If Xiaomi undercuts that, the Xiaomi Tag may become a popular stocking stuffer across Asia.
Paired Launch With Xiaomi Watch 5 and Buds 6
Rumors say Xiaomi will unveil the tracker alongside two other accessories — the Xiaomi Watch 5 and Xiaomi Buds 6 — during the Xiaomi 17 Ultra event in China on December 26, 2025.
That timing makes sense: accessories often get the spotlight during major smartphone unveilings, and integrating a new tracker perfectly fits the ecosystem strategy Xiaomi loves.
Sujit Ram’s Take
From my years following tech launches, I can say Xiaomi’s move is smart. Many Android users have wanted a reliable, affordable tag like Apple’s AirTag. If Xiaomi builds strong integration with Google’s Find My Device Network and keeps the price under Samsung’s level, this could be the gadget people didn’t know they needed until they lose something valuable.
In short, it’s another classic Xiaomi formula – simplicity, practicality, and just the right price point.
