T-Mobile's Starlink satellite service is now available after months of testing
T-Mobile has officially launched its satellite-to-mobile service, T-Satellite with Starlink, after six months of testing. The service connects smartphones in areas beyond the reach of traditional networks by linking up with over 650 low-Earth orbit satellites. Nearly two million people have already used the service for tasks like texting from remote locations and during extreme weather events and natural disasters. The service supports texting on both Android and iOS devices and has optimized apps for satellite data transfers. T-Mobile Experience Beyond subscribers can use the service for free, while others can subscribe for $10 per month. Interestingly, the service is not limited to T-Mobile customers, as AT&T and Verizon users can also access the platform by subscribing.
