Reply to comment by Zestyclose_Pickle511 in Samsung's S23s don't have an answer to Apple's Emergency SOS via Satellite by needlesfox

When presented with facts as to why he couldn’t call help, your only rebuttal is “yeah well /I/ dont think so”?

In case you don’t live in the area, the West Coast has many large expanses of land that have zero cellular service. Emergency SOS via satellite (be it from an iPhone or any other device) is one of, if not the only, direct ways to call for help in a place like that.

Dude could’ve died without the chance to send an SOS, I’ll give you that… but it’s totally ignorant to ignore why it’s invaluable to people who need it.

I can’t help but lol at the “you’re saying there no cell service 1 hr from LA.” If they think that’s shocking then I guess Seattle will probably throw them for a loop 😅 easily no signal within even a half hour drive
