    Thank you for making this video! I really wanted a good review on the Starlink Mini, as that is a game changing means of communication, and portable communication to the point of off grid is pretty impressive. Couldnt find any reviews on the starlink mini until your video!
    I think where starlink mini shines is when you are totally off grid, eg camping or travel to remote destinations like the arctic and antartica, where these speeds would be sufficient in places with no connectivity to begin with. This tech also helps saves lives too, with the recent Florida hurricane disaster, and with how starlinks played a crucial role to enable communications and provide aid!
    Would like to see more of this game changing tech review series too, and if possible would love to see a possible short video on your experience with starlink on Hawaiian Airlines! And if you are in the US, if possible, a review on Tesla FSD, and your opinion on its current state would be awesome too!

    Great review. Thank you. Just one thing either you’ve got wrong or I’ve got wrong. At about 5:00 you tried to account for the variation in speed tests by suggesting it has to do with the satellites orbiting around the earth. I’m not 100% sure but I THINK the satellites are shot into a fixed location and stay in the same place in space as the earth revolves and rotates. They’re not like the sun or moon that start out in one place and then move relative to our vantage point. Not sure if I explained that properly. Thanks for this video though. Great.

    i think this is a perfect example on how shit this product is in "normal life". the prices are insane for what you get. its just barely usable in areas where its the only option. expanding fiber to rural areas is definitely a better option but longer process. $600 plus $150 a month just to be at the lowest speeds and unlimited.

      You need to do a little more research before you criticize it. The product is not "shit", do a comparison with the other satellite internet providers. The performance alone leaves the other services in the dust. In spite of what you say about it being barely usable it is quite good in almost any location. Watch some of the UA-cam videos before you go trashing it.

      📌💯 Was about to say the same as soon as I saw that it needed constant power rather than it being battery powered. I can see it being used by people going camping or people who live on the road in vans or constantly go to very remote locations like small villages and something but not necessarily for the average use of someone just going about public spaces where you'd essentially have to bring around a power station with you.

Can definitely see the outdoor crowd or off grid crowd leaning to it more etc. It's a neat idea tho. Handy device in specific scenarios.

The Starlink Mini is for adventurers going to these kind of off-the-grid places.
