    chipolo one spot is perfect for iphone Xs/Xr and earlier users coz no precision finder. so better go with louder sound of chipolo

  • @thedjisin
    @thedjisin Před 3 lety +9

    One feature that I like is that you can use the Chipolo to help you find your phone by making it ring. Though, I guess if you have an Apple Watch, there’s no need.

    • @Manu1977
      @Manu1977 Před 2 lety +1

      It doesn’t seem to work with the Spot though as it is not registrated with the Chipolo App.

  • @MatejaMaric
    @MatejaMaric Před 3 lety +20

    The lack of U1 is relatively compensated for with the actually usable speaker and much longer Bluetooth range. The real decision-making factors are the form-factor differences. The Chipolo is much more compact and elegant compared to an AirTag with its required add-on holder. The AirTag with the leather key ring could be good as a primary keychain. The Chipolo is more usable as a durable pet tag. Each has its use case.

  • @tetaizozadja7080
    @tetaizozadja7080 Před 2 lety +4

    you said when anyone with iphone/ipad/mac comes near an airtag it will notify the owner, but does that happen only if the person who is being near has bluetooth on?

  • @eastcoastbrooks
    @eastcoastbrooks Před rokem +2

    Can the chipolo tracker be used as a luggage tracker? Feels like the out of range alert would constantly be going off because while you "know" where your luggage is you do not have access to it for the duration of your check in board and travelling. Seems like it would be constantly chirping the baggage handlers and sending alerts to your phone?

  • @ThePurpleKiss101
    @ThePurpleKiss101 Před 2 lety +12

    I just got a AirTag after using Chipolos for the past few years and the things I’ve noticed almost immediately is that I can’t use an AirTag to find my iphone by pressing it like I can with a Chipolo. Also the AirTag is entirely too quiet for me to hear if I were say downstairs and had left my item in a draw or a pile of clothes upstairs (which is something I carelessly do often). The precision location on AirTag is more hassle then it’s worth. If it was loud enough in the first place I wouldn’t bother using it. I will probably return the AirTags and replace the battery’s in my Chipolo. I also didn’t know I could integrate it with the find my app which renders the AirTag useless to me.

    • @webcomment8895

    I have a guitar I'd like to protect from theft. If it gets stolen I'd like to follow the app and knock on the door of the thief. But don't both chips automatically beep when the item is far from me? A thief would just look for the chip and destroy it or throw it in a ditch far away. Does there exist a chip for inside my acoustic guitar that will not let thieves know its there?

    I’m a little worried that apple will block the access of chipolo to find my, kind of like they killed google maps early on, and block other apps from root access. Would be a bummer to go with Chipolo and then have it bricked!

  • @FrotLopOfficial

    The number one reason I got this was because AirTags will go into lost mode if not near an iPhone over 3 days. Chipolo One Spot does not do this, so I can use it with my Android device and gain the massive benefit of the Find My network
