Emergency SOS isn't free service; it's free only for two years after you buy the device. Afterwards, it requires subscription. But I'm unable to find the info how much it costs; Apple hides that info.

        Harry, 14 Dec 2022You know how Satellites work?What are you trying to say? Anyway, the point of satellite communication is that you can use it when you are in the area that doesn't have cellular coverage.

                        What's the point in these countries? You have coverage to call 112 everywhere.

                              "Hello, I got an emergency"

                              "What is it ?"

                              "Uh, my iphone is about to run out of battery. Send a power grid immediate"

                                That's the Marvel use of science.
