The SmartTag2 is an IP67-rated tracking module that utilizes a dual-protocol radio stack. Material analysis reveals a metal-reinforced keyhole design integrated into a dust-tight chassis capable of withstanding submersion in 1 meter of water for 30 minutes. Technical specifications list the inclusion of both Bluetooth Low Energy 5.3 and Ultra-Wideband (UWB) radios to facilitate spatial awareness and directional "Compass View" tracking.
Performance metrics indicate an optimized power management system that provides 500 days of operation under standard loads, extending to 700 days in Power Saving Mode. Aggregated specification data confirms the presence of an NFC module for data transmission in "Lost Mode," allowing contact information retrieval by non-ecosystem devices. The unit functions as a node within the encrypted SmartThings Find Network, and its onboard button is capable of triggering pre-defined local automation routines.
High-peak loads from UWB radio operations require the use of high-quality lithium CR2032 cells; testing shows that generic alkaline chemistry may cause premature voltage drops during active search cycles.
While the hardware offers high-precision local tracking, it requires a host device running Android 9.0 or higher within a specific manufacturer ecosystem. The Samsung SmartTag2 provides superior spatial resolution for users already committed to the SmartThings architecture compared to generic BLE alternatives.
This high-precision beacon is a core component found within the smart sensors hardware category for environmental and asset monitoring.
