Leaked a few days ago, now officially confirmed: With the Xiaomi Tag, Xiaomi will soon be launching a new Bluetooth tracker on the market, which is set to stand out with its light weight and robust design. The model has been officially presented and could go on sale in just a few days. In addition to initial details about the design and weight, information about the possible price has also emerged. This positions the tracker as a low-cost alternative in the growing IoT accessories market.
- Only 10 grams light – particularly compact and suitable for everyday use
- Metal frame for stability and easy attachment
- CR2032 button cell as power source according to leak
- RRP probably at 18 euros, presentation expected on February 28 in Barcelona
Xiaomi Tag: Lightweight Bluetooth tracker with metal frame
The Xiaomi Tag has been officially unveiled, confirming earlier leaks about the device’s existence. Concrete technical specifications are only partially known so far. However, the weight has been confirmed: at just 10 grams, the tracker is one of the lightest in its class. This makes it ideal for use on a key ring, rucksack or suitcase without adding any noticeable weight.
The visible metal frame that encloses the actual tracker is striking. This design should not only increase stability, but also makes it easier to attach via a loop or ring. A reinforced frame is a practical advantage, especially in everyday use, where trackers are often exposed to mechanical stress.
Functionally, the Xiaomi Tag allows – unsurprisingly – the tracking of objects. According to the retailer leak, a CR2032 button cell is to be used. This type of battery is widely used in the industry and generally enables runtimes of several months to a year, depending on the intensity of use and signal intervals. The choice of this energy source therefore seems plausible and practical.
A recommended retail price of 18 euros is quoted. Although this value has not yet been officially confirmed, Xiaomi would clearly be positioning itself in the entry-level segment. In view of comparable products on the market, this price is realistic and makes strategic sense.
Compatibility with Apple “Where is?” and Google Find Hub
The rumored platform compatibility is particularly interesting. According to the leak, the Xiaomi Tag will be compatible with both Apple’s “Where is?” network and the Google Find Hub. If this information is confirmed, this would be a strong argument for users of different ecosystems.
A connection to the “Where is?” network would significantly simplify use within the Apple universe. At the same time, integration into Google’s Find Hub system would enable localization via Android devices. This cross-platform strategy would make the tracker considerably more versatile than many competing products, which are often tied to a specific ecosystem.
However, it is still unclear whether there will be a version with an ultra-wideband chip (UWB). Such a chip would allow precise direction and distance determination, which is particularly helpful for fine positioning indoors. Without UWB, the Xiaomi Tag would have to rely on classic Bluetooth positioning, which would not be unusual in this price range. In view of the low price point, a basic version without UWB seems technically and economically plausible.

The official launch is expected to take place on February 28 in Barcelona. A prompt sales launch is considered likely due to early listings, even if a specific date has yet to be set.
Conclusion
The Xiaomi Tag combines a lightweight design with a robust metal frame construction and an attractive price. Weighing just 10 grams and with a possible RRP of 18 euros, the tracker positions itself as an affordable solution for everyday use. The expected presentation on February 28 in Barcelona should provide further details on availability and functionality. If cross-platform compatibility is confirmed, the market launch could be particularly exciting.
