SpaceX to begin testing Starlink satellite-to-cell phone service

SpaceX is preparing to begin testing its satellite-to-cellular service after announcing its joint initiative with T-Mobile last year. At the Satellite Conference and Exhibition 2023, SpaceX VP of Starlink enterprise sales, Jonathan Hofeller said that the company plans to “start getting into testing” its satellite-to-cell service this year. Hofeller didn’t disclose the Telco the company is working with, but it is speculated to be T-Mobile. Elon Musk had promised that the Starlink V2 would launch in 2023 and would “transmit direct to mobile phones, eliminating dead zones worldwide.”
