Tile Sticker
The Tile Sticker is the smallest version of the Tile collection. You can attach this tracker to a small object, like the remote. The volume of the alarm and the range of the tracker are less than with the other trackers. It has a built-in battery and is splash proof. This makes it especially suitable for finding valuables that can't get wet. The built-in battery lasts for about 3 years. After this, the Sticker is ready for replacement.
Tile Slim
The size of the Tile Slim makes it suitable for in your wallet or inner pocket. You can also choose it to attach it to your laptop or tablet with the adhesive strip. The volume and range of the Tile Slim are slightly better than with the Sticker, but less than that of the Tile Pro. Also keep in mind that the tracker is splash proof only. The built-in battery lasts for about 3 years and can't be replaced.
Mate and Pro
Tile Mate
The Tile Mate has an opening that you can use to attach it to a key ring. Thanks to this, it fits on your key chain, but you can also attach it to a backpack or the collar of your dog. The range of 61m and the noise level are comparable to that of the Tile Slim. The advantage of the Tile Mate is that this tracker is waterproof and has a replaceable battery. With normal use, the CR1632 battery lasts 1 year. You can replace it after this time period.
Tile Pro
For your most valuable possessions, you can use the Tile Pro. Just like the Mate, this tracker has an opening to attach it to a key ring, for example. Thanks to this, it fits on your key chain but also on your backpack while on vacation. The Tile Pro has the best range and volume of the Tile collection. This allows you to even find back your items from a greater distance. This tracker is waterproof as well, and has a replaceable CR2032 battery that's easy to replace and a battery that lasts for 1 year.
