Hello Max! Satellite phone or satphone is a type of mobile phone that connects to orbiting satellites whereas a cellular phone connects to cell sites. It has the same function of a cellular telephone and it has a low-bandwidth internet access. Its coverage depends on the architecture of a particular satphone.

A satellite telephone, satellite phone, is a type of mobile phone that connects to orbiting satellites instead of terrestrial cell sites. They provide similar functionality to terrestrial mobile telephones; voice, short messaging service and low-bandwidth internet access are supported through most systems.
Depending on the architecture of a particular system, coverage may include the entire Earth, or only specific regions.
