"But AirTags have a few design flaws. First, the replaceable battery means you're chucking away handfuls of CR2032s every year. Then there's the shape and size. These tiny UFO-shaped devices don't have a lanyard hole and are too bulky to be placed in a wallet without giving you a pain in the rear. Also: My search for the ultimate USB-C charger for traveling is finally over Yes, some wallets have little holders for AirTags, but in my experience, they are all too bulky."
"The first thing I love about the SmartCard is the thickness, or more specifically, its thinness! While Apple's AirTag is 8mm thick, the SmartCard is less than 2 mm, or the thickness of two credit cards. This makes it perfect for use in a wallet. The end has a luggage tag hole for attaching the SmartCard to your suitcase. KeySmart made this card so thin by eliminating the bulky CR2032 coin cell and replacing it with a rechargeable battery."
AirTags produce battery waste with replaceable CR2032 cells and are bulky, lacking a lanyard hole and wallet-friendly form. A third-party SmartCard reproduces tracking capabilities while solving those problems. The SmartCard measures under 2 mm thick, about the thickness of two credit cards, and includes a luggage-tag hole for suitcases. It uses a rechargeable battery that recharges wirelessly roughly every five months and supports MagSafe attachment to wireless chargers. The SmartCard omits battery compartment covers, achieves IPX7 water resistance, and withstands bending and squeezing, making it durable for life inside wallets.
