Ming-Chi Kuo Predicts Apple AirTag Launch in 2024, Integration With Spatial Ecosystem
According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, those anticipating Apple’s upcoming AirTag may need to extend their wait until the fourth quarter of 2024.
The outgoing model that Apple is currently selling is the first-generation product that it launched in April 2021. The Tracker is due for an update, but it’s still unclear what to expect from the next-generation AirTag. And while it’s true that the AirTag could prove to be a great tracking device — allowing users to find keys, wallets, or anything with an AirTag attached to it — it’s hard to imagine what else Apple could build into the product. .

To address this, Ming-Chi Kuo has also provided information on what the new AirTag could focus on. “I believe that geospatial computing is a new ecosystem that Apple wants to build using Vision Pro as the core to integrate other devices, including AirTag 2,” Kuo said on X (formerly Twitter).
Should you wait for the next-gen Apple AirTag or buy the outgoing model?
If you need a tracker like the Apple AirTag right now — there’s no point in waiting for the second generation — which Kuo claims is more than a year away — and postponing your current need.
Apple is selling AirTag in a single pack for Rs 3,499 and a four-pack for Rs 11,900. Moreover, you can also avail free engraving if you buy directly from the Apple website in India.
If you plan to purchase AirTag, please note that you will need an Apple iPhone or iPad to install it. But later you can track it on your Android device.
