If at any time you decided to buy a locator Apple Airtag, for its functions, its price, and the good product that it is, surely you realized something that, previously, you may not think, and it is the theme of the battery, since it does not carry one like that of the iPhone.
The Airtag has CR2032 batteries, that is, the same as the analog watches that everyone had before technology entered both our lives. However, why does this happen? Apple wants us to spend money in batteries, being able to load the device? Let's see the reason.
Advantages that the AIRTAG use replaceable battery instead of rechargeable battery
And, logically, if Apple manufactures its Airtag in this way, it is because it is the best of all, since they are a company that could make the product custom without problem. Others, like Ugreen, do have locators that work by means of a cable and a battery chargebut the apple company, no.
This is due, to several reasons, however, the most logical and for which they do so, is because a pile is much simpler to replace, since it does not degrade, and, therefore, the product is almost “infinite.” This cannot be done with a mobile, because batteries would be very large, even with the rechargeable, but with An AirTag that lasts between 12 and 18 months.
In addition, the cost of the product is cheaper, since manufacturing a battery is somewhat more expensive than simply doing nothing, and that it is the user who bought it externally (although the first is included in the AIRTAG).
Therefore, it has its logic, and although many people prefer everything with drums, That such a locator has batteries, makes it cheaper and durableso it is a very understandable reason for Apple to do this.
The heat, the extreme conditions and the living time would cause the battery to degrade, being able to leave us lying in a moment of necessity, since its autonomy would not last the same as when we buy it. Using batteries avoids this, since by throwing it and putting a new one, the product is again “new”, although the previous one has suffered a lot.
There are devices of Asian brands that do have batteryas we said, so if you are looking for an alternative, it exists, but for now it seems that not even the next AIRTAG 2 will have it, so we will not have many options, at least officers, not to use battery.
Ugreen, as we said, has a very interesting card that uses drums, but it is normal, since by dimensions, if they wanted to do it in card format, they could not use a battery, since it would be very thick, and they had to implement this, impacting the cost in the customer, it is worth twice that their other product in “AIRTAG” format, so you already see one of the problems of it.
And you, are you batteries or battery? Leave us a comment with your opinion, and the reason.
