## Starlink Mini Reviewed: A Compact Satellite Solution for the Pricey?
SpaceX’s Starlink, the satellite internet provider that promised internet access to the remotest corners of the globe, just launched a new, smaller dish: the Starlink Mini. But at a hefty $599, does it deliver enough to justify the price tag?
**The good news?** The Mini packs the same high-speed, low-latency performance as its larger sibling. It delivers up to 250 Mbps download speeds and 20 Mbps upload, a boon for streaming, gaming, and video calls. The sleek, compact design makes it ideal for small spaces, perfect for RVs, boats, and even tiny apartments.
**The bad news?** That price. At $599, the Starlink Mini costs almost twice as much as traditional cable internet plans, even before you factor in the monthly subscription fee of $120. The Mini also has a more limited range than the standard Starlink dish.
**So, is it worth it?**
For those living in areas with spotty or no internet access, the Starlink Mini may be a valuable investment, providing consistent connectivity at blazing speeds. However, for those living in well-connected areas with cheaper alternatives, the hefty price tag may be hard to swallow. Ultimately, whether the Starlink Mini is a worthwhile purchase boils down to individual needs and priorities.
