Defy Satellite Link interacts with the Bullitt Satellite Messenger app on Android and iOS devices and can provide location information, SOS assistance, and two-way messaging via satellites.
The price of the accessory is $99. It’s definitely cheaper than buying a new phone with this type of technology. Defy devices can connect to stationary satellites 35,888 km above Earth using 3GPP NTN open standard direct-to-device satellite communications technology.
However, you must pay at least $4.99 per month to use the service.
Defy Satellite Link can also provide simple SOS and location sending with a physical button, even if the smartphone it’s paired with is out of battery or malfunctioning. According to the company, the device packs a 600mAh battery that lasts “several days” and is IP68 water and dust resistant.
