Good news, SpaceX has unofficially revealed how much they intend to charge open beta customers of their new Starlink<\/a> Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite<\/a> broadband service. Bad news, it’ll set you back $99 (c.\u00a375) per month for the service rental and $499 (c.\u00a3380) for the ground terminal, tripod and router hardware.<\/p>\n

The details surfaced as part of a leaked beta invite email from Starlink<\/a>, which was confirmed by CNBC<\/a>. The message informs users to expect variable data speeds from 50Mbps to 150Mbps (consistent with recent examples<\/a>), while latency will vary from 20ms to 40ms over the next few months.<\/p>\n

The note also warns beta testers to expect “brief periods of no connectivity at all,<\/em>” which will no doubt be gone once the full service launch begins. However, Starlink<\/a> added that latency and data speeds will improve as more satellites and ground stations are added to their growing constellation, not to mention improvements via software updates. Indeed, the company expects latency times to reach as low as 16ms to 19ms by 2021.<\/p>\n

As it stands the satellite<\/a> operator already has around 800 LEOs in orbit and their initial ambition is to deploy a total of 4,425 by 2024, which could potentially be followed by up to 12,000 at a later date (possibly late 2026). But we hope that the provider intends to offer a cheaper entry-level plan in the future, since c.\u00a375 is a bit too steep for many UK people (we’d probably have to add 20% VAT for this side of the Atlantic too).<\/p>\n

However, the one-off equipment cost of c.\u00a3380 isn’t such a concern, not least because we can imagine this being covered by one of the Government’s future voucher schemes. Sadly, hefty hardware costs are a normal thing for Satellite<\/a> platforms, but at least with Starlink<\/a> it should be easy enough to setup without the need for a professional installer (yet to be confirmed, but that’s the gist of it).<\/p>\n

Meanwhile the public beta has followed SpaceX tradition by giving itself the “Better Than Nothing Beta<\/em>” title, with the company adding that “as you can tell from the title, we are trying to lower your initial expectations<\/em>.” We should point out that at present this beta will only available to parts of North America. Sadly, there’s currently no firm indication of when the service might launch in the UK (they’ll need ground stations and regulatory approval first).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
