Check out our iPhone 13 rumors page for more on what we could see in the new phone, which we expect to launch within the next two to three weeks. We’ll know the truth about the iPhone 13 very soon. Gurman’s report says Apple is still working on the potential new feature and it won’t be ready until at least next year. Both features are reliant on satellite coverage and local regulations. The messaging features are severely limited in a way that makes them practical only in emergencies, and it could take up to a minute to connect to a satellite. While these could be done without a cell network, it will be no substitution for cell service in any way. We predict that Apple’s AR headset to be launched in 4Q22 will be equipped with two processors. According to his new report, the headset will launch in Q4 of 2022 and will feature Mac-level computing power. Another tool could allow users to report major catastrophes like plane crashes or sinking ships. In his latest note to investors, Ming-Chi Kuo dropped a sorts of details for Apple’s upcoming AR/VR headset. Users would not be able to make phone calls, or even send regular full text messages, but would instead get a new third class of “grey bubble” text in Messages that are shorter in length.

Apple is apparently working to enable limited satellite communications for emergency situations. Apple brought the AirPods Pro in 2019, but a successor is not coming until 2022, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo now claims. Later, Mark Gurman of Bloomberg cites “a person with knowledge of the situation” in a report that clarifies the situation. Ming-Chi Kuo: Apple AirPods Pro 2 are not coming this year. The key: Globalstar.- Sascha Segan August 30, 2021

I think I may have gotten to the bottom of this 'iPhone 13 will include satellite connectivity' rumor, and it could be 'iPhone Math' levels of game-of-telephone.
