We are talking about satellite phone, which is way too much large in size compare to the cellular phones we are enjoying. Well this was true few days ago, not anymore those are also getting smaller.
48 hours ago Global Star introduced world’s smallest satellite phone GSP 1700. The phone measures 225cc in total volume and weighs 200 grams (including battery). The height is 135 mm, the width is 55 mm and the thickness is 37 mm. The antenna, when held in a vertical position, communicates with the Globalstar satellite at elevations more than 10 degrees above the horizon. The Globalstar antenna rotates and stows into the handset for convenience when not in use. The key specifications are:
