The first one is the Caterpillar-branded Cat S75, which costs $634.49. The other one is the Motorola Defy 2, which costs $599.

Both of these new rugged Bullitt smartphones have 6.6-inch screens, as well as a 5,000 milliampere-hour battery.

Bullitt said that its new smartphone can last for up to two days. Of course, the new Bullitt smartphone models will also support 5G connectivity.

When it comes to receiving messages, users will rely on Bullitt Messenger, a satellite messaging app, to send and accept standard SMS.

Thanks to this, Bullitt users can send and receive SMS in just around 10 seconds. This is quicker compared to handset models using near-instant speed internet.

Bullitt's Other Satellite Internet Efforts

Aside from the new rugged device, Bullitt also announced that its Motorola Defy Satellite Link ($150) allows any smartphone to connect to satellite internet, as reported by CNET.

This Bluetooth puck can achieve this since it is integrated with the MediaTek 6825.

Another thing that makes the new Motorola Defy Satellite Link intriguing is that it works even with smartphones that don't have MediaTek chipsets.

"Our solution can basically be added to any form of 5G or 4G phone, from entry-level all the way to flagship," said MediaTek Corporate Marketing VP Finbarr Moynihan.
