Inmarsat always maintains a reputation for quality and reliability, constantly improving and refining its products and services. The Inmarsat IsatPhone 2 satellite phone is yet another confirmation of this. This new product from Inmarsat is a continuation of the well-proven IsatPhone PRO.
The first thing to note is the battery life — Inmarsat has set a new benchmark that other manufacturers have yet to match. The phone operates for 8 hours (!) in talk mode and 160 hours (!) in standby mode. Currently, Inmarsat's main competitor — Iridium with its flagship 9575 — has only 4 hours in talk mode and a meager 30 hours in standby mode. This is undoubtedly the main advantage of the IsatPhone 2.
The Inmarsat phone has a beautiful, minimalist design, fits comfortably in the hand, and features a new, larger screen with enhanced clarity, anti-glare, and Gorilla Glass with scratch resistance. The dust and moisture-resistant body has an IP-65 protection rating (same as the 9575). This device will withstand harsh rains, severe frosts, and desert sun — it will be a reliable helper in any, even extreme situations. Another great plus is the phone's network registration time — according to Inmarsat's description, up to 45 seconds, and from our experience 10-15 seconds, if there is good direct line of sight to the sky. A nice addition is that the phone can receive calls and messages even with the antenna retracted.
Finally, the standard set of features for a modern satellite phone: programmable SOS button, Bluetooth, GPS, SMS, E-mail, the ability to send coordinates via SMS and E-mail with one button press, electronic compass, etc. It only remains to remind you of the global coverage of Inmarsat satellite communication. We get the perfect means of communication in any conditions.
The Inmarsat IsatPhone 2 satellite phone has received excellent reviews from professionals working in various fields: from heavy ground industry to journalists, sailors, and rescuers.
Quality satellite communication from Inmarsat is ensured by four geostationary satellites and more than 40 years of successful operation.
