Just read that Elon Musk is now offering free internet via Starlink for certain smartphones. Actually, it's pretty crazy – until now, you always needed an antenna and a subscription, but now iPhone 14+ models, newer Pixels, Galaxy S21, and others can connect directly to the satellites. Without a cell tower, without local network. The first phase only allows SMS, location sharing, and emergency calls, but later, voice calls and real internet are expected to follow. Especially interesting for remote areas where nothing else works. Motorola devices from 2024 are also included. If you want to try it out, you can register on the official Starlink website. Whether it really works everywhere remains to be seen – but the idea of making free internet available everywhere is impressive. Has anyone here already tested it?
