SpaceX starts selling the Starlink Mini for $599 in select locations

SpaceX has started offering some users a new Starlink kit that’s small enough to fit in a backpack, so users can take it wherever they want to and get access to the company’s satellite internet service. The Starlink Mini will cost users $599 up front, according to the emails SpaceX has sent out. That’s $100 more than the standard dish kit, and users will need to have an existing standard service plan because they can only tack on the Mini Roam service for an additional fee of $30 a month. As TechCrunch notes, a Starlink residential customer will have to pay $150 every month in all if they also get the Mini.

The smaller dish may not cost that much forever, though. SpaceX said in its message that it’s working to make Starlink more affordable as a whole, and that it’s only offering a limited number of Mini kits “in regions with high usage” for now. A few days ago, company chief Elon Musk talked about the Mini on X (formerly known as Twitter) and called it a “great low-cost option.” He also said that it will cost “about half the price of the standard dish to buy and monthly subscription.”

In SpaceX’s message, it said the Starlink Mini dish comes with a built-in Wi-Fi router, so it’s not only smaller than the standard version, it also needs fewer components to access the internet. It also consumes less power, has DC power input and is capable of download speeds that go over 100 Mbps. In addition to the dish itself, the kit will ship with a kickstand, a pipe adapter, a power supply and a cord with a USB-C connector on one end and a barrel jack on the other.

As the company mentioned in its message, it’s only rolling out to select areas with high usage at the moment. But Michael Nicolls, VP of Starlink Engineering, said on X that the company is ramping up production of the Mini and that it will be available in international markets soon.
