SpaceX has agreed to acquire spectrum licenses from EchoStar in a $17 billion deal. The acquisition of AWS-4 and H-block licenses is intended to boost Starlink’s capability—including future “Direct to Cell” services enabling direct smartphone/satellite links. (Source: AP News)
For Starlink Mini users, this means: • Improved backhaul and coverage as Starlink expands its spectrum footprint. • Potential future compatibility with simpler devices (smartphones, lightweight terminals) which may trickle-down benefits to portable kits. • Increased demand for mobile power solutions—if connectivity becomes more ubiquitous, usage will grow and so will battery demand.
