On May 10th, OPPO officially announced that the OPPO Find X7 Ultra Satellite Edition has been upgraded with exclusive dual-mode bi-directional satellite communication capabilities to support the Hong Kong region in China.
This enhancement is made possible by the recent launch of China Telecom's mobile direct satellite service in Hong Kong, which was just announced at a recent event.
Chinese Telecom users in Hong Kong can now enjoy integrated satellite communication services without the need to change SIM cards or phone numbers, better meeting the rigid demand for satellite mobile communication in cellular blind spots.
It's worth noting that other phones supporting satellite calls typically only offer "hands-free" mode due to signal considerations. While this setup avoids obstruction of satellite signals by the human body, it can feel a bit unnatural during calls, resembling the use of walkie-talkies.
In contrast, the OPPO Find X7 Ultra utilizes satellite antenna directional diagram control technology to enable dual-mode satellite calls with both handset and hands-free options.
With no need for specific angles or postures, users can simply place the phone next to their ear like a regular call, without the walkie-talkie-like experience found in other products.
