Of course, when the battery goes out, you could always upgrade to the Pro Series. I currently have the Tile Mate, and will likely upgrade to Tile Style upon trade-in, mainly because an improved Bluetooth range will only help me find my stuff faster. Reed&#8217;s choice will probably be the Tile Sport.<\/p>\n<p>All three of these trackers have the same core features of Bluetooth tracking. Clearly, the Tile Pro, including Tile Sport and Tile Style, offer a few upgrades to those features, with improved Bluetooth range, waterproof rating, and a louder siren. But Tile Mate is still a great option, especially if you don&#8217;t want to spend the extra money on the Pro series.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s your pick between Tile Mate vs Sport vs Style?
