To make it easier for its brand to become recognizable in the satellite connectivity field, Motorola announced it will release a Tiantong satellite phone module by the end of the month, GizmoChina reports.
As the title says, the accessory will enable two-way satellite phone calls and text messaging. It’s also important to mention that the phone module will connect to China’s space-based information satellite, Tiantong-1, the same used by Huawei Mate 60 series.
The satellite phone module will be introduced in China since it will connect to the country’s Tiantong-1 satellite. It’s unclear whether or not Lenovo and Motorola will launch the phone accessory in other countries in the coming months. No word on price and availability have been unveiled yet.
Fortunately, there are options if you’re a Motorola fan. For example, the most recent Motorola rugged phone, the Defy 2, supports satellite connectivity. Not only that, but those who use the phone can also share their location and check-ins.
