Please excuse any errors as this is my first post of a deal. I've been looking for these for the last couple months and finally found them at a decent price.
Note: The price on amazon has been fluctuating by the day so hopefully it stays at this price for a bit. Also, these are the SmartTag (regular), NOT plus version.

April 30th, 2021 - Apple launches AirTag [apple.com]
Who's copying whom?

Knock-off won't register to work - unless someone's good enough to hack Samsung database - at that point they can make way more money doing something else...
It's not really a great question since you cannot use airtags without apple products, and I'm assuming people looking at this thread do not have iPhones.
I'm asking because I'm thinking of buying these Samsung smarttags as gifts for Samsung phone owners even though I already have iPhones and airtags.

yep you can, as long as someone with a compatible Samsung device walks by it for their bluetooth to ping off it. Samsung smarttag works off the community (just like Apple air tags) so your luggage being in a highly populated area will get many pings, allowing you to see the location of it.

Also, the verge article sugarcoats or is unaware of the fact that Tile app that enables location tracking doesn't have OS level permission to ping the trackers.
Tile app can get readily shut down in the background. there is a way to circumvent this in Android but not really on iOS even if you keep the location to always - which means even registered app users may not be contributing to the Tile network. As primary location tracking comes from phones, that makes Tile way crappier than other two.
And apple copying tiles. Tech is a community. No one company owns it.
I noticed one of my other Samsung trackers worked very briefly and then died. I think the trackers don't know they're low until it's too late; it worked until I tried to find it.

Tiles do hit up Amazon sidewalk devices but they are usually sitting far from where these would come in handy (bars, restaurants, amusement parks, airports, etc...)
TIFWIW, I've got all three and I have couple of NIB Tile pros sitting around because they suck ass compared to the Airtags and SmartTags almost anywhere in US and EU I've been to.

I just tried it now and it still shows the discount.
