What did we like?<\/p>\n
- \n
- Almost twice as cheap as AirTag, and Find My works almost identically on the network<\/li>\n
- Ergonomika – integruota skylut\u0117 leid\u017eia lengvai prisikabinti be papildomo d\u0117klo<\/li>\n
- Includes lanyard, charging cable (depending on model) and stickers for personalization<\/li>\n
- Official Apple Find My certification provides long-term trust<\/li>\n

What didn't we like?<\/p>\n
- \n
- Does not have UWB technology, so close-up search is only possible by sound<\/li>\n

- Cheaper-looking plastic doesn't give a premium impression<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\u0160iandien ant mano stalo – pirmos kartos Apple AirTag susidurs su Ugreen CM816 ir CM919. Pastarieji kainuoja kone dvigubai pigiau nei originalus Apple sekiklis, bet palaiko t\u0105 pat\u012f Find My tinkl\u0105. Ar tai protingas taupymas, ar visgi AirTag kaina pagr\u012fsta ne tik logotipu? Pasi\u017ei\u016br\u0117kime!<\/p>\n
What's in the boxes?<\/h2>\n
Apple i\u0161lieka tikra klasika – viduje tik pats AirTag ir \u0161\u016bsnis popieriuk\u0173. Ugreen komplektacija dosnesn\u0117. \u012ekraunamas CM919 modelis atkeliauja su USB-C laidu, atsarginiu jungties dangteliu, virvele ir net lipdukais personalizacijai. CM816 (veikiantis su kei\u010diama CR2032 baterija) komplektacija identi\u0161ka, tik be laido.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nUgreen models are square, made of a slightly simpler plastic, but have an integrated hole. This is a huge practical advantage.<\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
CM919 (rechargeable): Slightly thicker, has a USB-C connector under a silicone cover. Although the cover is not attached to the case, it did not fall off during the testing period.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n
CM816 (with battery): Slimmer, more reminiscent of a classic tracker.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

<\/p>\nOne of the stronger arguments in favor of the AirTag is its IP67 water resistance rating. Ugreen models do not have an official rating. While snow or being in a glass of water did not harm them during testing, they may not survive a swimming pool.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nIn open space, all three models remain reachable up to 50 meters away, but Apple AirTag establishes a connection with the phone a little faster. The rechargeable CM919 model thinks a couple of seconds longer from 25 meters before the app allows you to activate the sound (the CM816 was only slightly behind the AirTag). This delay is not critical and is barely noticeable in everyday life, especially if you are looking for an item more than every five minutes.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nOperation on the Find My network<\/h2>\n
When you're away from your phone, all trackers become dependent on nearby iPhones, which anonymously report their location to the system. Tests have shown that all three models update their location at a similar rate, depending on the amount of people passing by. The essence of the Find My network is to help you find an item when it's not in direct Bluetooth range, and Ugreen has proven to be surprisingly solid here. Below are some specific observations from my testing.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/niuxtech.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Ugreen-Smart-Tags-use-15.jpg\" "\\"Ugreen")
<\/p>\n1st attempt:<\/strong> Sekiklius nak\u010diai palikau automobilyje kieme (lauko temperat\u016bra apie -20\u00b0C), apie 15 metr\u0173 nuo namo (Bluetooth ry\u0161iu nepasiekiami).

<\/p>\n2nd attempt:<\/strong> Trackers in a child's backpack, at school. Here, updates were more frequent, at least every half hour. However, there was a location error on the map, which did not exceed a radius of 30 meters.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n3rd attempt: <\/strong>In the parking lot of a multi-story shopping center, the Apple AirTag stood out for its accuracy, while both Ugreen models "threw" the location about 5-10 meters away from the actual position.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n4th attempt: <\/strong>I left the trackers and backed away until they were out of reach, then quickly walked past. The Apple AirTag and CM816 changed their location (about 50 meters) to the side I passed, while the CM919 didn't have time to "catch" the passing phone and remained in the old location on the map.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nIn summary, all trackers perform their main task, but the rechargeable CM919 model is a little slower to detect and takes longer to establish a connection. A common drawback of all models is that the location can be "stretched" when moving around, which can later be a bit difficult to find an item in the field.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/niuxtech.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Ugreen-Smart-Tags-use-37.jpg\" "\\"Ugreen")
<\/p>\nOther features<\/h2>\n
Additional features, such as notifications when the tracker is left or showing contact information to the person who found it, work smoothly in all three models. These functions are directly controlled by the iOS operating system, so Ugreen is in no way inferior to Apple's product here. A notification about abandoned trackers usually arrives on the phone after about 10 minutes. All trackers also allow you to conveniently see the remaining battery in the Find My app, so there should be no surprises due to unexpected discharge.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/niuxtech.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Ugreen-Smart-Tags-use-8.jpg\" "\\"Ugreen")
<\/p>\nVerdict<\/h2>\n
The final answer to the question of which one to choose depends on your needs and how often you tend to lose things. Despite the slightly better Ugreen voice search, the Apple AirTag remains the best choice for finding small objects at home due to its precise detection function and higher assembly quality. However, if you need a tracker for a bicycle, scooter or suitcase, the Ugreen CM816 or CM919 will offer almost the same functionality for half the price. The integrated lanyard hole in the Ugreen case is a huge practical plus that immediately saves you the extra euros that would be needed for an Apple AirTag case.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/niuxtech.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Ugreen-Smart-Tags-use-46.jpg\" "\\"Ugreen")
<\/p>\nPersonally, I would choose the Ugreen CM816 model for those items whose location I want to see on a map without a big headache and additional investment. Although it does not have Apple's magic with arrows on the phone screen, the money saved seems like a very fair deal to me. I would save the Apple AirTag only for those keys that constantly hide in the deepest corners of a jacket or under the sofa, where every centimeter becomes critically important. It is simply a rational choice when you do not have to pay for a brand name where its functions are not vitally necessary.<\/p>\n
