What you’d get if you crossed a Tile with an AirTag
back at CES 2022, is just a new form factor. And in the design department, the Card Spot is nearly identical to the Tile Slim.
That said, we wouldn’t be talking about the Card Spot at all if it was about the hardware. The CardSpot might look identical to the Slim, but what makes it interesting is it operates more like an AirTag — albeit with a few limitations. For starters, it doesn’t have ultra-wideband. You’re firmly stuck within a 200-foot Bluetooth range. That means you still have to rely on sound to find your things instead of fancy AR arrows directing you to an exact location.
I actually didn’t mind that the Card Spot wasn’t as accurate as the AirTag. It makes it less attractive for off-label uses like unwanted tracking. Whenever I had my husband carry the tracker, I could at times see where he was. Other times, not so much. The day when we commuted in together? It had him at the subway station for hours. That doesn’t mean the Card Spot is necessarily safe, however.
Compared to the Tile Slim, I’d pick the Card Spot. The Slim does edge out the Card Spot in a few areas. I’ve actually been quite happy using it until now. But as an iPhone owner who loses things every day, the Find My network’s accuracy is more appealing and makes up for the Card Spot’s shortcomings.
