A few days ago, insiders announced that Google will also use the new Samsung hardware for the Pixel 9. What was meant by modems, because new functions also required new hardware. Samsung has now made the Exynos 5400 modem official and integrated innovation with it.
Samsung announced that the new modem has satellite communications. Starting with the Pixel 9, Google wants to do exactly that with Android 15. “For NB-IoT NTN by connecting to satellites located above the Earth, you can send and receive messages in the desert or in the middle of the ocean,” notes Samsung.
But that was not all, because the new modem has already been prepared for the next technology. Weite said: “Once the NR NTN is commercialized, the Exynos Modem 5400 will connect 5G devices directly to LEO (Low Earth Orbit) satellites, ensuring large-scale data transmission for countless use cases – again, regardless of your location.”
Two years after the iPhone 14 launch, Android 15 finally plans to introduce extensive satellite functions to Android. On the one hand, like the emergency call function, it will also be possible to send simple messages with other users. It has also been clear for a long time that Google is working on new functions for Google Maps.
