The startup known for its space-powered Starlink internet program has introduced a mobile mini antenna that’s small enough to fit in a backpack.In announcing the product on X in June, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk wrote, “I just set it up right now and am writing this post through space. Took less than 5 mins. Easily carried in a backpack. This product will change the world.” Musk followed up by posting a purported speed test for the connection, showing a 100 Mbps download speed, an 11.5 Mbps upload speed, and a 23ms latency. Also: The best mobile VPNs: Expert tested and reviewedWhen the device debuted in June, it was tied to a residential Starlink subscription, meaning not just anyone could sign up. SpaceX has since removed that requirement, opening Starlink Mini to everyone.The Mini, which costs $599, provides internet access anywhere in the US, SpaceX says. Service costs $50 per month for a 50GB plan – Mini Roam – or $150 per month for unlimited data – Mobile Regional. You can pause and unpause service at any time, with billing in one-month increments. In-motion use is only supported on the Mini Roam service plan, but On Mobile Regional customers can opt-in to use in-motion by the GB.The device weighs just over two pounds and measures 12 x 10 x 1.5 inches, which is only a little bigger than a letter-sized sheet of paper (but much thicker, of course). Starlink Mini is significantly smaller and lighter than a regular Starlink dish, and uses much less power. If you’re concerned about keeping Starlink Mini safe outdoors, you should know that it’s designed to work in temperatures from -22°F to 122°F and is IP67 dust- and water-resistant.If you often find yourself in places without a cell connection, the Starlink Mini just might be right for you.
