A disadvantage of a satellite phone is a noticeable delay in conversations. The signal must first travel to the satellite, then to an earthbound gateway before being routed to the receiver. The receiver's response will follow the same path in reverse, taking equally long to reach the caller. Satellite minutes are also more expensive than cellular minutes.

Disadvantages of a satellite phone is that it cannot use them on sites where there is no direct sight from the sky so in essence, if you are inside a building or in any sheltered area, you won't be able to use this satellite phones.Satellite telephones also find it hard to get coverage close to tall buildings or during bad weather so it is not advisable for one to acquire this type of cell phone for daily use.
