Starlink Residential Lite: New Affordable Unlimited Data Plan Goes Live in the US
SpaceX has launched a new plan called "Residential Lite" aimed at households with lower bandwidth needs, offering unlimited deprioritized data for $80 per month. This new plan is significantly cheaper than the regular Residential service, priced at $120, but it comes with reduced speeds during peak network usage. While users can enjoy unlimited data without artificial speed caps, they may experience slower speeds, ranging from 30Mbps to 100Mbps, depending on network capacity.
- The introduction of the Residential Lite plan reflects a strategic move by Starlink to cater to budget-conscious consumers while navigating the challenges of network congestion and prioritization.
- How will the reception of this new plan influence Starlink's competitive positioning against other internet service providers in underserved areas?
