Inmarasat has a new satellite phone called the IsatPhone Pro. Inmarsat is very well known for providing global mobile satellite communication services and brings this new IsatPhone Pro as a "game changer" at a competitive price. Some of the unique features of the IsatPhone Pro include: a long lasting battery that has up to 8 hours of talk time and 100 hours on standby. The phone is shock, dust and splash resistant and has went through some extensive testing for ruggedness. It has an IP54 rating and can withstand temperatures from -20 degrees C to +55 degrees C.

Below are the comments from Andrew Sukawaty, Chairman and CEO of Inmarsat:

“Today we have delivered a robust, affordable, professional handset for global users. IsatPhone Pro joins our award-winning portfolio of data and voice terminals. It gives us a full range of services for remote environment communications use. We have today entered the handheld satellite phone market with a global handset. It targets customers served by Inmarsat for decades, both at sea and in the most remote parts of the global landmass. It is supported by our existing satellite network and it uses proven technology customized for use in these environments.”

The IsatPhone Pro is ideal for those at sea or on land, professionals and non-professionals and for those who work in harsh environments. GSM and a high visibility color screen as well as use through Bluetooth, text and email messaging and a keypad that is wider for dialing when using with gloves make this phone the perfect phone for those in government agencies, oil and gas companies, mining industries and more.

Distribution partner who will have their hand in distributing the IsatPhone Pro are:
China Telecom, AST, Korea Telecom, Evosat, MVS, MCN, NSSL, Network
