Starlink in India

[shashankb]

SpaceX will allow mobility on their service soon when they go for Stable launch after Beta(current situation) . Still you can move it a few metres and use it.
After the proper launch , it can be installed Home-Trucks , Yachts , Ships , Mobile-homes , etc . Maybe a car mount can also come in the future

It is best suited for villages and half-urban areas. And price is definitely high which Starlink should consider when they are planning out a roadmap for implementation
Wireless space(spectrum) is definitely limited and Rural areas should be benefited more than Urban areas . I believe Fiber should only expand in Urban areas and if Starlink starts rolling out to mass public in Urban , it will be the same condition as 4G in India .

The satellites launched currently are already congested in Europe region with just the Beta programme. Imagine India with such dense population

This will be useful for remote locations only then, if you have a small business this pricing will make sense.

They'll likely end up capping speeds and data once they get enough customers.

At the present pricing, I would bet on FTTH & Wireless internet on 5GHz unlicensed spectrum for rural India.

almost 600 dollars to get started with starlink? sounds rough . Would be nice if they adjusted the price for Indian customers

 

[Navjot Singh]

Don't forget the 18% GST on everything.

 

[Tejas01]

Chalo bhai, I am happy with my 4G(or whatever G it is).

 

[shashankb]

Well 4G is about to come to India . It is slowly rolling out . Airtel recently demonstrated 4G speeds in Hyderabad . Jio also will do it very soon . Handset has to support 5G thats it
