      You would call a vet if that happened.

      Slam test maybe?

    • William Wightman

      May 4, 2021 at 7:20 am

      For the fourth AirTag maybe try a torture wheel that spins and has a hair dryer going, nails that it hits, water that it dunks in, etc or ask a friend to hide it a few miles away and test the Find My network. Just some ideas. Great Video!

    • Wesley Thomas

      May 4, 2021 at 8:13 am

      Yes definitely would like to see digestive system test!

    • Stefan Borisov

      May 4, 2021 at 5:06 pm

      Ask somebody to hide it, far away, in another neighborhood for example, and see how long it takes for apples “find my” network to find it. And you can still do another test after that.

      I would like to see a dryer test

    • gerry alvarado

      May 5, 2021 at 4:53 pm

      Send the airtag through the entire gaunlet

    • Om Lanke

      May 5, 2021 at 9:43 pm

      Find Test please!! Just give it to a random guy to lose it in the city and try to find it 2 hours later.

    • Device Technology Gaming! and memes!

    • pbsing

      May 6, 2021 at 4:12 am

      Heat test in a car. I think some people will leave an AirTag in their car to help them find where they parked.

    • DonkeyPenguin Bear

      May 6, 2021 at 6:39 am

      Toaster test. Drop it from a tall building. Have someone swallow it and see if you can track them down in a city centre. Use a powerful magnet 🧲. Conceal one inside the frame of a bike, lock it up somewhere. someone will steal it. Then track them down and recover the bike.

      Take It to the ocean a lake and see how deep it can go!

    May 3, 2021 at 5:11 pm

    A good test is to give it to a destructive kid for a few days and see what happens

  7. Seleez

  11. Nuragna theBloodedge

    May 3, 2021 at 6:22 pm

    Wish she would have given it alil more time to find it in frozen state….would have been nice to see if you dropped it in snow would it be traceable..she only gave it 4sec 🙁 rest of the vid was good

  12. Mateja Marić

    May 3, 2021 at 6:43 pm

    Ah, I missed the good old days of CNET torture tests. Things were simpler back then…

    Great context.everyone needs more than there salary to be financially stable.the best thing to do with your money is to invest it rightly.because money left for saving always end up used with no returns.i started investing in Bitcoin mid November 2020 with the help of a well-known- professional Mr Stephen Duncan and the profit entirely funded my receipt duplex.

      I lost about $4000 to a scammer before I was linked to Mr Stephen and believe me He helped me recover the $4,000 and made me an extra to $5,000 in the space of a week and 4days.

    Can you put one on a bicycle? Then try and track it down live as if the bike were stolen?

    II purchased a four pack the day of the launching. I use the Belkin’s key ring. Enjoy your vid on the AirTag. Are you new on CNET? Where is your accent from? Thanks. Jim

    Show what is displayed to a non-owner (like a random person walking by a lost one airtag)

    What case is that

  29. Rolando Arauz-Bryan

    Cheaters better be wary…lol. I can see people using these to track each other. So happy I am singgle.

  30. Timothy Teo

    May 4, 2021 at 4:55 am

    You could send the 4th one to me:)

  31. Yuri Lozano

    May 4, 2021 at 5:31 am

    Lexy you can send me the last one here in St. Louis MO (with an autograph of you of course) and see if the My Network will find it! Not that it will be returned tho :p
    You would make my 2021 with that! S2

    May 4, 2021 at 6:29 am

    I don’t remember anybody doing all these extreme tests with tile tracker or the Samsung smart tag. Goes on to show why/how nobody cares about tile or Samsung. Seems like only Apple has the power to define a product category. Great!

  33. Akshay

    May 4, 2021 at 9:55 am

    Seriously, why do you wanna do all these??

    Great review and lots of fun. But don’t put it in ice cream in case the kids eat it, although not a bad idea to track down the location of the kids when they are out! (just kidding!)

  36. Matthewtrains

    May 4, 2021 at 2:11 pm

    i have an idea i can take an old screen protector and then put it on the air tag

  37. Mohammed Sadiq

    I was hoping for fire 🔥 test 🤣

  38. 1Keymaker

    May 4, 2021 at 6:59 pm

    Throw one in a Raging river and see how far down it gets and if it will ping back.

  39. nuyou21

    May 4, 2021 at 9:51 pm

    Microwave test, sledgehammer test, and the good old AirTags target practice test. 😁

  40. DonkeyPenguin Bear

    May 5, 2021 at 12:50 am

    Next let’s see it on 60 degrees 3 hour wash

  41. Jacob Maz

    May 5, 2021 at 4:12 am

    The washer test was so smart, thank you

  42. David Desson

    May 5, 2021 at 5:00 am

    Leave an Air Tag in your car in a multilevel Parking Garage or leave it in a large Apartment building.

  43. Rodney Sia

    May 5, 2021 at 8:21 am

    how bout swallowing it like a Mentos? will it survive that?

  44. Commander [REDACTED]

    May 5, 2021 at 8:38 am

    Are the Air Tags bulletproof?

  45. Craig Wilkes

    May 5, 2021 at 1:02 pm

    Drop it in a hot coffee and leave it for 10 minutes

  46. Derrick

    May 5, 2021 at 1:07 pm

    Ugh I miss the torture tests when phones would get out in a freezer or in the washing machine. It was amazing

  47. AndyG1714

    May 5, 2021 at 2:42 pm

    Can someone tell me why no one test the smart tags?

  48. Robpol86

    May 5, 2021 at 3:39 pm

    Flush one down the toilet and see where it ends up

  49. B Nav

    May 5, 2021 at 4:19 pm

    After the washer put it in the dryer

  50. Bad Drivers Of The NorCal Area

    May 6, 2021 at 1:37 am

    One thing I have not seen people talk about is how helpful these could be for finding stolen cars. Just throw it somewhere inconspicuous and you are good.

  51. FMFvideos

    May 6, 2021 at 2:40 am

    I was always losing my ice cream… not anymore!

  52. Shashank

    May 6, 2021 at 1:41 pm

    you should have dropped it without the leather Tag to see if the battery would drop off from the case.

  53. rowlandmartin85

    May 6, 2021 at 5:43 pm

    Step on them. Because you might drop your key and then step on them.
