Consider a trek up to White Mountain Cider Company for dinner and dessert of warm cider doughnuts and ice cream. In Mount Washington, gorge on breakfasts of maple syrup-drenched buttermilk pancakes and apple betty French toast at the Glen House. It’s cute, it’s cozy, and it’s centrally located for all of your coastal New Hampshire adventures. Sure there’s no pool, no concierge, not even a front desk to speak of, but what you skip in amenities you more than make up for in value, at a time of year when many hotels like to jack up room rates to take advantage of leaf-peepers. If you’re driving to New Hampshire or points further north, check in to the Great Island Inn, an “apart-hotel” occupying a restored historic home just a few minutes from downtown Portsmouth.

![]() ![]() Of course, Samsung is one of the biggest phone brands out there, and it runs off the built-in SmartThings app as well, so that’s a fairly broad church, but it still feels like a misstep. Unfortunately, that doesn’t seem to have occurred to Samsung, as it has made the SmartTag only compatible with other Samsung devices running Android 8.0 Oreo or newer. It goes without saying that the more devices your Bluetooth tracker is compatible with, the bigger the chance it’ll be picked up by a passing phone or tablet. A year tends to be longer than months, so it’s clear the Tile Mate wins here by default. That’s a bigger statement of confidence than Samsung, which simply states the watch battery in the SmartTag will last for months. Both of these trackers use replaceable watch batteries, but the Tile Mate pushes ahead with a stated one year of battery life. The batteries in Bluetooth trackers are often replaceable, but a longer battery life means there’s less chance it’ll fade on you when it’s needed most. While that range is going to be different depending on the surroundings, as buildings will block the signal, Samsung’s dramatically-larger range is clearly a big draw, and it wins this round.īattery life Andrew Martonik/Digital Trends By contrast, the Tile Mate’s range is 61 meters (or 200 feet). That translates to just under 120 meters (or 390 feet). Samsung’s SmartTag is the big winner here, with a 130-yard range. It’s essentially a high-tech way of devices saying, “Oh yeah, I saw them over there.” So, the range at which your tracker can ping other devices is important, as the longer the range, the more chances it’ll be seen by another device. Essentially, your tracker pings off other nearby devices, which relay the information back to your device. The primary way Bluetooth trackers work is - unsurprisingly - through Bluetooth. While the size of the Tile Mate is a big plus for it, the SmartTag’s smart button is actually really useful, too. It’s a handy little feature, and it means there’s a reason to use the SmartTag even when you haven’t lost your keys. If attached to your keys, holding the button might turn on your house lights, while pressing it once may start a playlist of your favorite songs in the kitchen. The center of the SmartTag is actually a button, and you can set it up to control devices connected to your Samsung SmartThings app. The best Samsung Galaxy S21 screen protectors for 2022īut the SmartTag has a surprise up its sleeve. ![]() The best Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra cases and covers The best Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra screen protectors for 2022 ![]() ![]() ![]() Why would a bus service picking passengers up from an international airport have such limiting payment options!!!
