Alert iPhone 14 with new Emergency SOS - Satellite communicator

[Joe Hogan]

I like clear TPU cases, this one I've enjoyed on my 12 Pro Max. This arrived yesterday so now I can't return the phone

Cheap enough to buy new every year if desired. So far my Aeska has worked great.

This is very encouraging. Good to learn how to use my iPhone features

Yup…that ZAGG GEAR4 was the WORST for my phones!

The SPIGENS haven’t yellowed at all, but yeah, they’re around $24 now.

I can tell you that this has been an amazing game changer. Being in the Sierra so much, I’ve tested this feature for the past year or so and am stunned. I’ve recommend the newer phones to a couple of my friends, who have medical issues and spend a lot of time on their SxS in the woods. I suggest they either get a SPOT, or upgrade their phones to the 14; which they did immediately!

NOTE: The SOS SATELLITE feature is only available on iPhone 14 and later. I had to double-check myself a few days ago when my Son-In-Law’s 13 had the SOS on his display. This SOS on older phones indicates that an emergency CELLULAR network is available.

See now, Neal…aren’tcha glad you dropped some coin to get even better safety comms? ;-)

I tried spigen and it's not the material I prefer. I like the super flexible clear TPU.

Interesting. Saw the SOS on the wife’s iPhone 12 while we were in the middle of nowhere having dinner while at the mothership.

Had never seen that before.
