Xiaomi 15 Ultra introduces satellite communication system

Xiaomi has just launched its latest smartphone, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra, in China. Packed with top-notch features, this model is making waves with its camera system. But that’s not all – there are also some exciting new technologies making their way into other devices. Take, for example, smartphones that can communicate via satellite for emergency situations.

The Xiaomi 15 Ultra not only supports satellite communications but takes it a step further. At the unveiling event, it was revealed that this device will feature support for Star Communications, one of the most advanced satellite communication platforms available today.

What sets this smartphone apart is its AI-powered three-chip system, designed to help users stay connected even in areas with weak network coverage. With this technology, the device can maintain communication with the Tiantong network, enabling connectivity between two devices within a radius of up to seven kilometers.

This means that users can make “offline” calls, albeit with limited functionality, using the network. And of course, the device also has satellite connectivity for longer emergency calls.

This innovation will be a game-changer for those who often find themselves in areas with unreliable mobile network coverage or enjoy venturing into remote green spaces far from civilization.

It’s worth noting that, for now, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra is only available in China, with no confirmed plans for international release. But who knows what the future holds? Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting device.
