The AirTag is really small. It’s roughly the size of a large coin or a coat button. You can customise your AirTag with engravings on the polycarbonate body. Also, Apple says AirTags have a dust and water resistance rating of IP67 so they can withstand spills and splashes and being submerged in up to a metre of water for up to 30 minutes.
The metal cover is highly polished and it can be easily popped off to reveal a user-replaceable CR2032 battery within. Apple claims over a year of battery life with “everyday use”.
It’s hard to complain about the size of the AirTag. Its compactness means it will slip into bags easily and won’t cause too much of a hindrance when you attach it to things. But because there’s no hole on it, there’s no way to attach anything to it without purchasing a separate AirTag accessory.

Happily, Apple can aid you with its range of AirTag accessories which includes keyrings and loops. Just note that Apple’s Leather Key Ring and Leather Loop cost more than the AirTag itself. And if you are feeling really fancy, you can opt for Hermès too.
