I believe many people are very busy this September. I wonder if you have grabbed the phone they like. I don’t have it anyway. I originally thought of buying a Mate50 RS version of Huawei , but it didn’t work in seconds. Because two heavy-duty new phones were launched in September, which are comparable to the king. One is the Huawei Mate50 series released earlier, and the other is the Apple iPhone 14 series released two days later.
What do these two phones have in common? First of all, these two phones are high-end flagship phones and the most advanced products of each company, which adds the latest technology. The second is that Huawei Mate50 series and iphone14 series both have a common technology, that is, "satellite communication".
What is satellite communication?
First of all, we need to figure out that satellite communication is not a new technology. satellite phone is the most intuitive tool for using satellite communication. It is just that in our lives, the signals of communicators are covered everywhere, so we basically cannot use satellite phones. But this time, satellite communication technology was used in the two series of mobile phones of Huawei and Apple , and this is the first time this function is used in civilian mobile phones. To give the simplest example, if you run into the deep mountains and forests, and the phone has no signal at this time, you can use satellites to contact the outside world and seek rescue, so this technology is actually quite practical.
Huawei's satellite communication technology is based on my country's Beidou satellite navigation. It requires the use of Beidou satellite through a special Changlian APP. The iPhone uses foreign satellites, so for Chinese people, they cannot use satellite communication technology and can only serve users in North America. So from this perspective, Huawei Mate50 series is the only option available at present.
Will the Huawei Mate50 series charge for using satellites?
First of all, the answer is yes. This time, you will get a free quota of 30 per month on the Huawei Mate50 series, but the premise is that you can only after you activate this function for the first time and complete the registration. In the future, there may not be so many free quotas, and there will be normal charges in the future. Currently, the ones that can use this technology are Huawei's Mate50 standard version, Huawei Mate50 Pro, and Huawei Mate50 RS Porsche Special Edition. In the future, Huawei Mate Xs2 folding screen can also be updated to use this function.
If you really use this function, you will find that in the Changlian APP of Huawei Satellite Communications, you cannot freely edit information. You can only publish it in advance, including positioning, latitude and longitude, and current conditions. The reason for this is to not occupy too much of the satellite's space. You can only use it when you really encounter an emergency.
Is Huawei Mate50 series satellite communication meaningful?
In fact, many people are questioning whether it is meaningful to add the satellite communication technology of Huawei Mate50 series. In fact, this significance is even greater for our Beidou satellite, because many people are talking about the use of my country's own satellite navigation, but it has not been popularized. This time, Huawei's Mate50 series joining the Beidou satellite has also proved to people the significance of the existence of Beidou satellite. It can also help Beidou satellite accumulate experience and continue to develop.
is the charging issue that people are concerned about. In fact, most people will hardly use this function. If it is really used, the cost of the short message can be said to be "not worth mentioning". Therefore, if this function is to be used, it is very useful.
Summary
In fact, after many hardships, it was a rare thing for Huawei to bring Huawei Mate50 series. Huawei has done its best to make up for the problem of 5G and chip production. This time, satellite communication technology is just the beginning of Huawei mobile phone getting on track.
