iFixit has published a teardown video of the new AirTag 2, offering a detailed look at the item tracker's internal components. The teardown reveals a redesigned speaker that's up to 50% louder than the original AirTag, as claimed by Apple. It also provides insights into the second-generation Ultra Wideband chip and other internal changes.

The AirTag 2's overall design remains largely unchanged from its predecessor. However, the teardown indicates that the speaker is now more difficult to remove. The repair experts at iFixit were still able to disable the speaker's audible chime. This new version offers improved tracking capabilities and increased range compared to the first generation.

AirTags are designed to be attached to everyday items like keys and backpacks, allowing users to track their location using the Find My app. Apple's updated AirTag 2 boasts enhanced Precision Finding and improved Bluetooth tracking. With the increased use of item trackers, this teardown gives consumers a better understanding of the hardware.

Apple released the AirTag 2 last month, with improved features over the original. The louder speaker and enhanced tracking range make this a worthwhile upgrade for users who rely on the item tracker. This teardown confirms the changes and offers a glimpse inside the updated device, revealing how Apple has improved on its design.
