Tile pro and mate 2018 review tile is a tiny tracking device that can be attached to a keyring your bag laptop pet or even your umbrella tile has been used by many to track where your things are and help you find them. The 2018 tile trackers come in two models. The new tile pro and mate are the upgraded model of the predecessor check out our review on the previous tile pro adding better range louder sound and more. The pro 30 and the mate 20.

Of course the tile mate is both a little smaller and lighter making it easier to carry around or fit into a small pouch of your gear bag. Plus the tile mate is 10 cheaper. Tile also bundles the mate with the slim in a 70 package that includes four mate trackers and as of this writing at least you can buy a bundle that packages the tile pro with the slim too.

The biggest change is that the 2018 tile mate and tile pro rely on a replaceable watch battery which you can pick up at the chemist for a few dollars. Plus the tile pro is slightly louder meaning that if you are near the end of that 400 foot range you should be able to hear it. As long as you re in bluetooth range which is 100 feet for the orginal tile mate and 150 feet for the new one you tap a button on the tile mate or the tile app on your phone to cause the other item to make a loud sound so you can find it.
