Samsung Galaxy SmartTag2 (4-Pack) in Kenya
The Samsung Galaxy SmartTag 2 is priced at KES 15,200 in Kenya, which includes a 2-year warranty. It is Samsung's second-generation item tracker, which is technically a small disc you attach to keys, bags, luggage, or a pet's collar so you can find them from your phone. The SmartTag2 is a Samsung Galaxy-only device: it does not work with iPhones and isn't part of Google's Find My Device network. It is covered by a 2-year warranty at Smartphones Planet Kenya.

How it Works:
The SmartTag2 is located entirely through Samsung's SmartThings Find, so it requires a Samsung Galaxy phone or tablet running Android 11 or later with the SmartThings app (Samsung lists 3GB+ free RAM for the finding network). It will not pair with an iPhone, a Pixel, or any non-Samsung Android phone, and unlike some rivals it isn't on Google's cross-Android Find My Device network. Two levels of finding are available: standard Bluetooth works on any recent Galaxy, but the precise Compass View and AR finding need a Galaxy phone with Ultra-Wideband (UWB) hardware, the S, Note, Z Fold, and higher-end models, not most A-series phones. If you or the person you're buying for uses a Galaxy phone, it's ideal. If not, tell us and we'll point you to a tracker that fits your phone.
Two-Tier Tracking:
The SmartTag2 pairs Bluetooth LE 5.3 with Ultra-Wideband, and the two do different jobs. Bluetooth handles the distance; Samsung rates the direct range at up to about 120m in open space, so within a home, office, or compound, you can ring a tag to make it beep and walk toward the sound. UWB is about pinpoint accuracy at close range: once you're within a few metres, Compass View shows a live directional arrow and distance, and the AR mode overlays guidance through the camera to walk you to within centimeters, useful for keys that have slipped down a sofa or a bag buried in a pile. Bluetooth tells you roughly where; UWB walks you the last few steps.
Battery You Replace:
One of the SmartTag2's best practical traits is its battery. It runs on a standard CR2032 coin cell, the cheap, widely available watch battery, and lasts up to 500 days in normal use, or up to 700 days (about 40% longer) in Power Saving Mode, which relies on basic Bluetooth finding. Crucially, when it finally runs down, you pop in a new CR2032 rather than throwing the whole tracker away, which keeps running costs near zero over years of use. Across a four-pack that matters, you're not replacing four devices every couple of years; you're just replacing four inexpensive batteries.
IP67 and a Smart Button:
Each tag is IP67 rated, sealed against dust, and able to survive submersion in up to 1 m of fresh water for 30 minutes, so rain, spills, and a dropped-in-a-puddle keychain are fine (Samsung notes it's not for pool, beach, or soapy water). There's also a physical button on each tag, slightly recessed to avoid accidental presses, that you can program through SmartThings: a single, double, or long press can trigger smart-home routines or IoT devices you've set up, turning lights on or making your phone ring, so the tag helps you find your phone rather than the other way round. A new pet-walk logging mode is handy if you clip one to a dog's collar.
