Honor CEO demonstrates Magic 6 Pro satellite communication features

Honor is all set to unveil the Magic 6 series on January 11 and meanwhile, the company’s CEO – Zhao Ming has demonstrated how the rock-solid satellite communication features work on the Magic 6 Pro smartphone. The tech giant has released a new video, highlighting the key aspects of the approaching devices.

As per the preview clip, Honor CEO – Zhao Ming showcases the new satellite communication features on Magic 6 Pro and defines how the latest addition will be a significant tool for consumers when they are stuck in low network conditions.

Describing the functions, Zhao Ming turns on the Tiantong Satellite feature on the Magic 6 Pro handset to search and connect with satellite signals. After the appropriate connectivity, he initiates satellite calls to show the accurate outcomes.

On the flip side, Ming added that one can send satellite messages after the successful connection takes place. The executive further mentions that Magic 6 Pro directly connects to high-orbit satellites that are 36000km away.

Eventually, this lets the device cover more than 99% of the land area, enabling users to make calls or send messages even in no-network areas. At the same time, it also boosts the speed and allows you to make longer calls.

Previously, a Weibo tipster conducted a test between Mate 60 Pro and Magic 6 Pro to test satellite communication technology, and the results were quite surprising. Honor Magic 6 Pro defeated Huawei’s flagship with faster and better capabilities.

Huawei Mate 60 Pro:

The top-end model uses China’s Tiantong-1 satellite system for its satellite calling features. It is an independent program that consists of three segments: space, ground, and user terminals. Three of these remain in orbit to offer efficient services.

Magic 6 Pro:

It seems as if Honor is using the same satellite system for effective performance. The plus point is Honor’s self-developed rock-solid satellite communication features. With the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor and robust satellite functionalities, the Magic 6 series could be a tough contender for the Mate 60 lineup.
