Review on πŸ” TrackR Bravo: Bluetooth Tracking Device & Phone Finder in Rose Gold - iOS/Android Compatible, Gen 3 (1 Pack) by Jarrett Love

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Poor build quality, slow location update, limited usability

I bought some of these trackers on the recommendation of a friend. I was looking for a long-distance, non-subscription tracker with a removable battery for my pets and keys. It seemed like it fit the bill with its crowdsourced Bluetooth network. The battery is easy to swap out and has a lifespan of 1 month, not bad, but not bad either. After all, replacement batteries are cheap. However, the build quality is terrible. Flip-out battery compartments broke on two devices within a few months (remember the battery only needs to be replaced once a month, meaning it dies after just a few uses). Real-time tracking is almost useless - for stationary objects, that *might* be fine, but for a moving pet, the system updates so slowly that your pet could be many miles away when you get the notification, even for stationary objects this isn't great - you might find your pet wallet or key in a day or two but there is a chance someone else will find it before you.. wanted to supplement my Loc8tor but I found TrackR almost useless as it is taken with it due to its fragility and lack of real time information Loc8tor instead / Tabcat if you can find it.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Crumpled
