(Telecompaper) Thuraya has launched a new satellite phone, the Thuraya XT-Pro, which will be available at all Thuraya service partners from 30 April. Targeted at professional users across a range of market sectors including government, energy, media and NGOs, the Thuraya XT-Pro features built-in GPS, BeiDou and Glonass for high accuracy navigation and added security in every region. The phone offers a talk-time of up to 9 hours, which Thuraya claims is the longest on any satellite phone. It is jet-water, dust and shock resistant and comes with a Gorilla Glass display with glare resistance. The Thuraya XT-Pro also has a dedicated SOS button with advanced navigation and tracking features for added safety. The XT-Pro can be used across the Thuraya network covering two-thirds of the globe, including more than 160 countries. The phone can be used either with a Thuraya prepaid or postpaid SIM card, or a SIM card from any of Thuraya's worldwide GSM roaming partners.
