With the Pixel 9 phones, Google’s iPhone-like satellite technology may make its debut

The remarkable photographic capabilities of Google Pixel smartphones, which are fueled by their intelligent photography tools, and artificial intelligence (AI) features, have made them very popular. Although the Pixel 8a is anticipated to be released by Google next month, tech aficionados are eagerly anticipating the release of the Pixel 9 series before the end of this year.

A lot of fresh rumors about the Pixel 9 Series have surfaced. It’s anticipated that Google will upgrade its flagship model with a few additional features. As per the sources, the tech giant is going to provide the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro satellite connection, which would function similarly to Apple’s Emergency SOS feature.

Google is reportedly going to provide a new safety net for owners of its most recent Pixel 9 series, according to claims from Android Authority. This new safety feature will assist customers in an emergency and resemble Apple’s SOS function. The tech giant has revealed that the Samsung 5400 modem, which was used in the Pixel 8 series, would be replaced with a new model in the Tensor G4 chipset of the Pixel 9.

It is anticipated that the new 5400 modem will come with improved software that will enable Android’s native satellite implementation and provide greater stability. T-Mobile and Google want to collaborate on the functionality, with other carriers to follow. Additionally, Google plans to include this SOS emergency capability on a 5G-capable Pixel Tablet and the Pixel Fold 2.

When turned on, Google’s SOS will ask users a series of questions to determine their status, just like Apple’s emergency function. The following are a few queries that the feature could pose:

What took place?

Is everyone breathing? Are you, them, or both?

How many individuals are [missing/trapped] overall?

Which option best sums up your circumstances?

What’s ablaze?

According to reports, in order to help consumers as soon as possible, this new SOS function will provide a list of predetermined replies for the following queries:. With this new function, users will also have the ability to notify their emergency contacts. It’s been rumored that the SOS function would let users send text messages in addition to Google support.
