Petloc8 Mini weighs 25 g including its silicone attachment and uses GPS, 4G LTE Cat 1, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and an embedded roaming SIM. Five-second live updates, service-included purchase options, an eight-image gallery, and a product-level rating make it well evidenced, but it is officially intended for pets above 4 kg and the product page contains conflicting two-week versus seven-day battery language; the Mini comparison and FAQ consistently support seven days.
PAJ's PET Finder 4G Mini is a true GPS tracker with its own European 4G SIM, Bluetooth-assisted indoor power saving, a 33.1 g body, and a 3 kg minimum dog weight. Its purchase includes more than two years of service and the official page provides unusually complete technical and media evidence, but it is the heaviest tracker in this lightweight ranking, continuous tracking lasts only one to two days, and it is not designed for U.S. cellular use.
Tracker T1 is a roughly 25 g pet tracker that officially lists GPS, Wi-Fi, LBS, Bluetooth, and—on its technical page—cellular positioning. Its standard battery claim is up to six days and its official gallery and video are complete, but Molly&Cody does not disclose the cellular generation, radio bands, partner carriers, supported countries, minimum pet weight, or full subscription matrix. It therefore ranks only as a conditional option after buyers confirm local network support directly with the brand.
