New AirTag 2 leak reveals when to expect product launch


Apple launched its first product of the year last week—the iPhone 16e—but five more product launches are expected in the coming weeks and months. One such device is the long-awaited AirTag 2. Now, thanks to a new leak, we have a better idea than ever of when to expect it.

Apple targeting May or June launch for AirTag 2, per leaker

Leaker Kosutami posted on X today that AirTag 2 is indeed coming this spring, as Mark Gurman has reported. And they narrow the timeline even further.

Kosutami says AirTag 2 will launch in May or June.

As Gurman has reported previously, there are three main features expected for Apple’s AirTag successor:

  1. better range
  2. more modern wireless chip
  3. improved privacy features

This latter point includes making the speaker harder to remove.

Kosutami also hints separately that home accessories—perhaps the ‘HomePad’—and AirPods Pro 3 are “knocking your door.”

While we aren’t expecting new AirPods Pro until September, Apple’s HomePad product still seems likely for a spring launch—probably around the time iOS 18.5 debuts with new Apple Intelligence and Siri upgrades.

What features do you hope to see in AirTag 2? Let us know in the comments.
