Amazon aims to launch a worldwide cellular network powered by satellites, targeting 2028 for availability. The project will require deploying approximately 5,000 satellites to deliver voice calls, text messaging, internet access, and emergency services across regions currently without terrestrial network coverage.
The company plans to partner with mobile carriers in different countries to roll out the service. These partnerships will be essential for integrating the satellite network with existing telecom infrastructure and ensuring compatibility with local providers.
The service would offer connectivity in remote and underserved areas where traditional ground-based networks cannot reach. However, it remains unclear whether Brazil will be included in the initial launch or future availability, according to reports from The Verge.
