The locators of the Apple were released last week, but some product problems have already been found. One of them: the AirTags apparently they scratch very easily.

AirTags scratch easily
The results were highlighted by YouTuber Marques Brownlee, owner of the MKBHD channel, who reviewed the trackers. “Personally, I don’t mind this type of device too much – I won’t waste time looking at it and, most of the time, my goal will be to get it out of sight. But those who are not indifferent to this should know that AirTags scratch easily,” he commented in the video.
The truth is that the painted face of the trackers should be barely visible, as the object is intended to be attached to other accessories such as keychains and special covers. With that said, it probably won't make much of a difference. However, it's always good to know this information before you buy.
As AirTags were launched on the 20th. The idea behind the product is to give users control over lost objects through the Find My app on their iPhone. In it, users can check the item's most recent location. It is also possible to adjust a sound in the tracker so that the user knows the whereabouts of the object, if it is within Bluetooth range.
