Tile has been in the market of tracking items for several years now, long before Apple came into the market with the AirTag. In fact, before AirTag, Tile was pretty much the most well-known Bluetooth item tracker out there. It's still alive and kicking, and a good reason to pick it over AirTag is because of all of the varieties it comes in, as well as the ability to work with both iPhone and Android devices, and not just one over the other.

While Tile trackers have always been affordable, they're about to get even more so with these great Prime Day deals. Honestly, it's one of the best times of the year to pick up a Tile tracker for all of your stuff, from your keys to your wallet to your electronics. No matter what you want to track, Tile has a tracker that is best suited for the job. We've personally reviewed the Tile Slim and the Tile Mate and loved both — the latter is available at Amazon for just $18! But if you prefer sticking with Apple, even for item tracking, you may find some AirTags for cheap in our Prime Day Apple deals roundup.

Tile Mate is the most popular version of Tile's item trackers. This three-pack comes in black and each Tile Mate is slim and compact with a hole, so you can hang it on your keys, loop it onto your bag, or whatever else you need to track. Tile Mate has a range of up to 250 feet, so you can easily find your gear. If it's out of range, utilize the Tile network in the Tile app to locate your item. The non-replaceable battery lasts up to three years and it has a fairly loud ring when you need to locate an item.

Tile Slim is designed to fit into a credit card slot in your wallet, but you can also slip it into other things like bags and purses. The Slim comes with a Bluetooth range of up to 250 feet like the Mate and should also last about three years on a single non-replaceable battery.

Long before AirTag came out, Tile trackers reigned supreme. They're still very good Bluetooth item trackers, to be fair since they work on both the best iPhone and Android, and not just iPhone — cross-compatibility is always a great thing! If you want an item tracker that isn't always in the news because of controversial use cases, then pick up a Tile. With these great Prime Day deals, it's hard to pass up.
