Samsung Electronics will introduce a smart tracking tag this week to help users find lost items, the company announced Monday.

Dubbed the Galaxy SmartTag, the product will go on sale here Tuesday for a retail price of 29,700 won, the company said.

The brand-new Bluetooth tracker is designed to help users locate lost items such as their keys, phones, pets and anything that they could misplace.
