The Motorola Defy Satellite Link is a nifty gizmo, offering a version of iPhone 14's handy Emergency SOS via satellite feature to anyone regardless of whether they have one of the latest or best smartphones. And now U.S. customers can finally get their hands on it.
Originally announced in February, the Motorola Defy Satellite Link offers a built-in satellite-based SOS feature. But it does more than just provide emergency coverage. It's basically a satellite messaging hotspot, hooking up to your smartphone via Bluetooth for two-way satellite messaging and location sharing. The idea being that you can still keep in touch with friends and family even when you're in an area where cell coverage is spotty or not available at all. And most importantly, only one of you needs the satellite-capable device for it all to work.
