Starlink, the satellite internet service provided by Elon Musk’s SpaceX, is currently offering a limited-time discount in the Philippines.
Starlink’s internet service is widely regarded as an excellent solution for improving internet connectivity in remote areas of the Philippines. It offers a more practical alternative to traditional fiber lines, although it remains relatively expensive for the average consumer.
Fortunately, Starlink has decided to reduce the price of its hardware kit for a limited time. Originally priced at Php29,320, you can now purchase it for only Php19,999 until August 31, 2023. The monthly service fee will be Php2,700.
The hardware kit includes the Starlink satellite, the base, cables, and a WiFi router. Delivery is also included as part of the package. To avail the service, simply visit the official website of the company. You can easily set it up yourself with the assistance of an iOS or Android app.
For those unfamiliar with Starlink, it operates by utilizing low-earth orbit (LEO) satellites that are launched into space to directly transmit internet signals to users. As of May 2023, more than 4,000 mass-produced LEO satellites have been deployed to cover various markets worldwide.
Users in the Philippines can expect internet speeds ranging from 50Mbps to 200Mbps. Additionally, if you find that the service does not meet your expectations and wish to discontinue, Starlink offers a 30-day free trial period.
