Samsung Galaxy S24 Screenshot Confirms Satellite Connectivity

Turns out a screenshot from what appears to be a Galaxy smartphone shows “Emergency texts via satellite” as one of the features. For the unversed, none of the Samsung phones are equipped with satellite connectivity which leaves the upcoming Galaxy S24 series as the potential candidate.

The screenshot puts Galaxy S24’s satellite connectivity an inch closer to reality as it shows the ability to send texts when in a remote area with no network range. There were talks that Samsung’s implementation of satellite connectivity would include calling as well although that might not be the case keeping the tipped screenshot in mind.

Other features that seem related to satellite connectivity onboard the Galaxy S24 series are pressing the ‘side button’ five buttons to send an SOS to emergency services. There are also emergency contacts who will be informed about the user’s whereabouts. Additionally, there’s a ‘Medical Info’ section that should inform emergency services about medical conditions and allergies to look out for before administering medications and procedures.
