Apple allows users to stay connected without cellular service
New York: Apple iPhone 13's new feature would be beneficial as it allows users to stay connected without cellular data.
According to details, Apple iPhone 13's will feature satellite communication connectivity that will allow users to make calls and send texts without cellular coverage, Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said.
“The advanced model will include hardware that helps to tap low earth orbit satellites allowing it to stay connected in areas where 4G or 5G coverage isn't good. The iPhone 13 is expected to use Qualcomm X60 baseband chip which reportedly supports satellite communications,” Kou told investors.
Moreover this new feature would make the iPhone more attractive to consumers who live in or near areas not well served by cellular service. Travelers will also get benefits who venture into areas that don't have coverage but still want the peace of mind of always available communications typically reserved for satellite phones.
Kuo singles out LEO satellite communication service provider Globalstar as the company "most likely to cooperate with Apple in terms of technology and service coverage."
