Innovating on the Move

Our lives, at their core, are a lot about embracing the change in our horizons. While these changes can look a little daunting at times, all of them bring something new to our individuality, and therefore help us become significantly better over time. Now, if we have to validate the said claim through an example, we can turn our attention to technology. When technology first arrived on the scene, everyone was naturally doubtful about its capabilities, but once we allowed it to grow a little; we were able to see the potential in play quite clearly. This sent us off into an unprecedented direction, a direction which led us towards a reality that we couldn’t have fathomed in our wildest dreams. Nevertheless, despite practically changing our very identity, the creation didn’t stop putting-together more bids for growth. In fact, it only got better at doing so, and consequentially, started fetching us an improved brand of by-products. A by-product from the similar fabric went on display following Starlink’s recent announcement.

Starlink has officially launched an all-new feature called Portability, which lets you use Starlink services when on the move. According to certain reports, the feature will cost you $25 per month. That’s, of course, in addition to Starlink’s regular service fee of $110 per month. For people who are still planning to purchase Starlink hardware and don’t have a preorder, the expenses will include another $599. It is surely a big move on the company’s part, but the whole arrangement comes with various caveats. Upon digging deeper into details, we’ll see how the service is going to work on a “best effort basis”, basically saying that the company will prioritize customers who are operating from their registered addresses.

“Starlink prioritizes network resources for users at their registered service address. When you bring your Starlink to a new location, this prioritization may result in degraded service, particularly at times of peak usage or network congestion,” Starlink said.

Furthermore, you can only use the Portability feature, if you are on the same continent as your registered address. This means you can, at least, take it to a different country, but there is another wrinkle to navigate here. Assuming you end up using Starlink in a new country for more than two months, you’ll have to switch your registered address before continuing with the service. In case these limitations weren’t enough, the customers can’t use their Starlink in-motion either, but the company has reassured that it’s working to launch a solution for moving vehicles soon.

While there are too many question marks, the Starlink’s Portability feature still has every shot at becoming a success, as it looks to reach places that aren’t yet covered by your usual cell towers.
