So how can I send BeiDou satellite messages? Users can enter the “Changlian” App, click on the BeiDou satellite message service number when there is no ground network service, select “New Message”, choose the contact person and fixed sending text, check the “Carry Location “Click “Send” to enter the star search process and send the message after completing the search.

According to the official notes, as BeiDou satellite messages provide mobile terminal hardware, they only support sending messages, not receiving, and they need to be used in an open, unobstructed environment. This means that users who receive BeiDou messages, even if they are also using the Mate 50 series, will not be able to directly reply to the message so that the user who sent it will receive it.

It is important to note that BeiDou satellite messages do currently only support outgoing content and cannot be interacted with by the recipient. This is due to the nature of BeiDou satellite messaging itself, not the inability of the Mate 50 series to do so.

According to Huawei, the Huawei Mate 50 series is the world’s first popular smartphone that supports Beidou satellite messaging. In the absence of ground network signal coverage, you can still send messages through the “Beidou satellite messaging” service number in the Changlian App to keep in touch with the outside world, and also support one-click track map generation.

In addition, all brands of cell phones can receive Beidou satellite messages (regular SMS) when there is a ground network.

Of course, this feature is only available in mainland China (excluding Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan), and only Mate 50, Mate 50 Pro and Mate 50 RS Porsche Design support this feature (excluding Mate 50E).

Now, Huawei officials in the introduction of this feature also mentioned that other models can also support satellite communication function through software upgrades, for example, Huawei Mate Xs 2 will support the function later, while all other models can not support this function through a software upgrade, that is, hardware restrictions.
