Galaxy S26 series could support satellite communication
"The Galaxy S26 series, expected to debut next month, may come with satellite communication support. All three models in the lineup have appeared on the FCC database, revealing details about their connectivity features. According to FCC listings for the US variants of the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+, and Galaxy S26 Ultra, all three models support Supplemental Coverage from Space (SCS) and Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) technologies."
"The presence of these technologies confirms that the Galaxy S26 series will support satellite communication. This would allow users to send and receive text messages even in areas without cellular coverage. However, the feature is likely going to be limited to certain regions. The FCC documents also reveal that the phones will offer Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth LE, NFC, and Ultra Wideband (UWB) connectivity."
"Notably, Samsung may partner with Skylo to enable satellite calling and messaging, as suggested by an earlier report related to the Exynos Modem 5410."
