I wonder if there is any comparison report done on how a luggage item with both a Tile Pro and a Samsung SmartThings Tracker inside does in reporting back in various trips within the the US and the world.
But when it hits the airport it sends the tracking information--I've gotten tracking when my bag merely passed low over an airport. I wish my TrakDots still worked but I'm not going to pay a monthly fee given how little we travel.
