WHY THE PRICE IS JUSTIFIED
The spend goes into unusually complete everyday hardware: Bluetooth 6.0, a 90 m quoted range, 120 dB alarm, replaceable CR2032 and an integrated ring hole. Its useful cross-platform flexibility is genuine, but it must be assigned to one network at a time.

DESIGN & ERGONOMICS
A small colored disc with a clean integrated hole—more practical and less accessory-dependent than AirTag. Six colors make identification easy without turning it into a novelty object.
LONGEVITY
Replace the CR2032 at roughly one year. The keyring is molded in rather than supplied as an accessory; IP55 is rain/dust protection, not an underwater rating.
