Your tracker of choice - AirTag, Chipolo or Tile ?

For those of you that use Bluetooth trackers, what is your favourite , and why do you prefer it ? I am thinking about AirTag, Chipolo and Tile, but if anyone uses another brand, feel free to mention...

    JJP2  Just about to get a set of AirTags (from US via friends - much cheaper). I wasn't too sure but then recently we have heard too many cases of luggage being lost (no pun intended!) so thought it worth a try.

    Hey JJP in my original reply to you I also forgot something that might be a dealbreaker (depending on how you think of it) in that the use RFID wallets/pouches with these trackers means they can be hit and miss if they will work or not. The companies selling them can't guarantee the trackers will work within these 'faraday cages' (some have tested to say they will be OK) .. and I reckon these are very commonplace now e.g. my keyless entry cars and my wallet are both shielded. 

    I learned this the hard way(!) but thought I would point this out incase it affects what you buy 👍
