T-Mobile is preparing its own competitor to Apple’s $29 AirTag. On Wednesday, the carrier introduced the SyncUp Tracker to help you recover items that go missing.
The $60 handheld device can attach to your car keys, wallet, or purse. In the event, you can’t find the item, simply go to your smartphone. T-Mobile’s app will pinpoint the location for the attached SyncUp Tracker, enabling you to easily find the lost item.

However, there’s a big difference between AirTags and T-Mobile’s product. The carrier's version doesn’t rely on Bluetooth signals from nearby phones. Instead, SyncUp Tracker taps T-Mobile’s cellular LTE network—which covers entire cities—to pinpoint the device's location.
