This service might probably cost a lot as satellite phones fees do. i think its just a new way of getting more money from consumers, overhyping something that you would rarely use.

      Satellite or no satellite as long as it does not allow calling, only texting, am not interested.

        Whatever systems Apple, Qualcomm and Huawei use, the winner will be the one which doesn't require a subscription service to use.

                    good some competetion is happening.. else people as to face very high charges from Apple for this sat services.

                      Never mentioned that Huawei was the first to offer 2-way communication messaging through Beidou satellite!

                      But well, thankfully at least the writer didn't claim Apple was first.

                        Hopefully this will ve helpful during major catastrophe like earthquake, landslide, tsunami and etc where conventional connection often fails.

                                    sooner or later this feature will be available on all classes of phones. which is good but will surely further saturate the earth's orbit.
