View Article on CNET

Discounts on Apple products don’t come too often, so when they do it’s worth taking a look. Best Buy’s 48-hour flash sale is bringing a great deal on the famous Apple AirTags. So the next time you lose your wallet, keys or whatever it may be, you don’t need to panic. These little tags can be attached to all your important items and will use Bluetooth and ultrawideband technology to help you track them down if misplaced.

For a limited time only, you can snag the four-pack for just $76 at Best Buy. Apple’s four-pack of AirTags typically retail for $99 so you’ll be saving $23 with this deal. Just keep in mind that this sale ends on Sunday, Aug. 4, so if this interests you, act now before the sale ends.

AirTags are some of our favorite item trackers, and they work seamlessly with your iPhone and the Find My app with a simple one-tap pairing process. You can then throw a tracker into a pocket as it is or grab an AirTag accessory to clip them to keys, hook them onto a bag, stick them to your bike or attach them to anything else you want to keep tabs on.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

Once set up, the AirTags will show up in the Find My app and display your items on a map so you can easily find them. If an item is in your vicinity, you can use the app to play a sound on the AirTag’s tiny speaker to help you find it and use the Precision Finding feature to be guided to your lost possession. This is handy if you’re just looking for your keys or wallet around the house, for example. If you lose an item farther afield, you can put it in Lost Mode, which will then ping you if the AirTag is detected on the Find My network and allow you to add a message and include your phone number or email address.

Each AirTag is powered by a CR2032 coin battery, four of which are included with your purchase. The batteries last around a year before you need to replace them. AirTags are IP67 rated, making them water- and dust-resistant, so you don’t have to worry about them getting damaged if they’re exposed to the elements. 

You can even pop an AirTag on your phone. And if you’re looking for a new phone, check out our roundup of the best iPhone deals happening right now.
