i will put out 5g and all the phone companies do you really think the g o v will allow that
What do you have to say?
as a lvl 3 tower climber that has build these systems for a long time.. this shit can't be safe.. The amount of direct power our phones would need to shit out to TX to the satellite is not the sort of thing you want up against your head all the time.. buckle up and enjoy your cataracts at the very least, and then there's the fear that in an effort to give this feature to more phones they will inevitably cut corners and just make it always on and at higher than ideal power levels to artificially inflate the idea that it works better than it does, so your burning RF into your pocket beside your reproductive organs all day. We will see a spike in people with eye damage in the coming 20 years, and then those people will exhibit higher than usual cancer rates.. mark those words now, and start adding shielding in your homes attic..
That takes some balls brother. I had a friend that did that sort of thing. He said being Infront of the microwave dishes for 10 minutes his insides would start burning. He died at a very early age 43.@@TrueHelpTV
Can anyone say *_STAR TREK COMMUNICATOR???_*
The BIG question that I have is, *_HOW MUCH WILL IT COST???_*
Remember this, *_IT WILL BE EXTENDING YOUR ELECTRONIC LEASH TO EVERYPLACE THAT YOU GO!!!_*
If AT&T doesn't come on board soon, this is the one thing that can get me to change to T-mobile. This is very cool tech and I love that Starlink is pushing the envelope on what can be done with these phones.
Keep on keepin' on, man!
If AT&T did not have direct fiber to the home they would be back in the stoneage banging rocks together, less government contracts.🤣
This will take some time before it is even available.
Att is 🤡in America owned. Elon/Military won’t allow that.
Tmobil is better than AT&T anyways .
I guess you guys haven't heard about t-mobile terms of service, monitoring & fining your free speech. Been with t-mobile like 8yrs because only service available at my house, but will find a different carrier.
As a person cruising around the Pacific side of Mexico full time where cellular coverage is very limited, I think this is a tremendous improvement for providing another communication source in the event of an emergency. Of course providing voice and data use would be even better. Direct to satellite communication via my cell phone would be a much better solution than my archaic and buggy IridiumGo! and the limited functionality of my InReach Mini 2.
Absolutely. Perfect use case.
I have starlink maritime on my boat, a inmarsat sat phone and garmin inreach.
Maybe all this just on a mobile phone would be amazing. My 350.00 a month service fee sucks.
@@evinwhiteson4902sounds like you get a heck of a deal for $350 (all things considered). You are in the middle of the ocean. What’s the alternative? Don’t complain
Could happen sooner if the regulators would get out of Elon’s way - hopefully more consumers will stand behind him and support him vicariously at the ballot box.
As long as he doesn’t sponsor the criminal trumpet in elections..he will have everything required🇺🇸
Bureaucracy + Deep pockets won’t allow it
Just need to be careful and not allow things to just be rushed through without consideration.
Regulation exists for a reason. You should read up on things like spectrum management. It's easy to do a drive by saying fooey on regulations when you don't have a grasp on what they are and why they're there in the first place.
@@yamahagrand I couldn’t agree with you more. However, who regulates the regulators that are applying inappropriate political bias that is contrary to the common good? When those biases are demonstrated in adversely impact advancements something has to give. I totally agree that some of the regulations are certainly worthy and beneficial - not against them by any means but again, there has to be a “happy middle” that is fair and doesn’t adversely impact advancements.
Here in Brazil we have a lot of deadzones on roads and starlink DTC would be a solution, we have a lot of celltowers with links provided by satellite (even starling) on rural areas, but still dead zones.
I don’t expect anything over 3G speeds, but just enough to maybe keep a map working and allow to do a emergency call would be enough
As a starlink user all the way in Jamaica, im very happy about this development
I am a cross country truck, driver, and through the years. I have tested many different companies and honestly Verizon has the most coverage. Definitely not the cheapest, but they always had the most. I was hoping Elon was going to come out with his phone and I was going to get one to try, yes I have been an apple guy for years but honestly I imagine Elon has a better thought process on the future of technology than Apple, so I was still looking forward to his phone. Also I don’t want to run many different phones honestly, if there could be one phone that did it all, maybe I have to switch to T-Mobile I don’t know only time will tell I do have Starlink at the house, and I also have one in the Philippines
How does star link work in the Philippines? And what part I'm in the mountains region of Paracelis poblacion.
@@wreckum56 it works fantastic because honestly all you do is point it to the open sky. The property that my wife has is in a small providence so nobody else has Wi-Fi at all except for us now there the only reason we have cell phones signal is because of a booster previous two but because of the Starlink, she is now using Wi-Fi calling and when I’m in the United States because she still has a Philippines, phone number, and I have a United States phone number we use WhatsApp
vinniegillotti9347.
I'm in Australia and Telstra is our best coverage provider. Some of the others are not much better than smoke signals. A while ago when I heard that EM was bringing out his own phone and sat provider, I couldn't wait to get one. Now I'm just hanging back to see what happens.
I can't see our Telstra (which is more expensive than all the others, because it IS the best) not getting some sort of deal from EM and then screwing us some more.
Your phone doesn't lose GPS connectivity just because it loses cellular connectivity. It just loses data for map downloading and if you had already downloaded the map you wouldn't have that problem
Elon's talent, giving credit to the team he has assembled around him, is navigating the regulatory morass which locks business as usual in for decades. It's a sad fact that milking profits from some idea or level of technology has a stagnating effect.
🚀
Either have a WiFi signal or be outside and you won’t need a cellular provider at all in 2025.
Amazing.
Using a standard phone to establish a signal at the satellite's altitude is impossible. Three decades ago, we utilized the 450 MHz band in mobile phones, as it proved optimal for covering extensive distances, particularly with widely spaced antennas. Moreover, achieving longer distances demanded a considerable wattage, accompanied by high radiation levels from the phones. I'm curious about the wattage required for data communication to satellites. Contemporary satellite phones feature substantial antennas, and it's worth noting that Starlink satellites orbit at a similar altitude to Leo satellites.
My father had a satellite phone in the 1980s.
Yep. I remember. $1000+
It is possible to use the GPS of a cell phone when not connected to a cellular network. However, you must preload a separate app and maps. The cell signal is only used to speed up GPS acquisition through the SUPL network.
While I am pretty excited about the amazing benefits this new technology will offer globally, won't launching thousands of satellites into orbit only exacerbate the already overwhelming space junk issue?
Don't get me wrong, I want this service to happen 💯- I can just see a pattern with us humans, in that we like to 'ignore' and 'avoid' until the monster is way too big to not to have to confront ... ie climate change, sustainable living, plastics, garbage and other pollutions- to name a few, just sayin' 🤷
The space junk issue has probably actually sped up the technology in tracking and avoidance that allows this type of constellation to be engineered.
JC love the way you are on top Starlink and enjoy your shows but please remember that your cell phones have GPS built into them and will still give you navigation with no cellular connectivity. Even in the wilds of Florida.
Yes. Sorry. I was referring to Google maps and alike that if do not have a signal no longer provide direction.
You do have to download offline maps e.g. OsmAnd
@@jcristina For something over 5 years now, if you have asked Google Maps to route you someplace with no cell service, it will ASK YOU if you want to download maps for the dead area. Or you can manually select an area, at any time, and cache the map data. So Google Maps can and will provide navigation without cell service--if you have asked it to.
Other mapping apps are plentiful, that also cache maps, even very large maps, to allow GPS navigation, not just location finding, on Androids.
In the middle of the Atlantic ocean on my sailboat heading N to Bermuda there is no cell service to get GPS coordinates from cell tower triangulation or router triangulation. No problem. My Apple watch and iPhone can be setup to bypass triangulation and talk to the GPS satellites directly. You just have to set up your watch to do a GPS “cold start” downloading the ephemeris GPS data and constellation data ( approximately 30 GPS birds up there) to your watch initially taking bout’ 4 or 5 minutes. Your done watch GPS data comes directly from the birds in real time. I do it all the time.
I worked for AST Space building the bluebird sattelite constellation. They were building 5G sattelites that work with sprint I believe. Don't quote me. I worked on the solar panel and array deployment assembly. I was responsible for mixing adhesives and figuring out what would and wouldn't work. I knew starlink would quickly outpace them.
You mean AT&T. Sprint doesn't exist anymore.
If you have ever seen a 3D map of Starlink satellites, this news sounds huge. This is something from old school sci-fi universe.
Agree!
Direct to cell is fantastic. I’m beginning to feel like I ended up in a Star Trek movie. I’m sure glad I am not in a position of trying to compete with Elon Musk.
Here in Big Sur ATT wants to discontinue copper service on the coast... We have so many visitors and emergency prolblems that StarLink would be a life saver....
AT&T with AST SpaceMobile will also be launching D2C service in 2024
@@Ben-fe1ft When SpaceX has hundred of satellites (with DTC) up there, you'll better of with Starlink system (game changer).
A new Tesla Phone & Starlink would be great, I live in the mountains and go out in the woods a lot. Cell services don't work.
👍🏻
17:30 We don’t need cellular networks for GPS 😅 All we need to have is maps stored locally on mobile phone. iOS 17.1 supports this feature.
Sounds amazing! For us internet is not a luxury its a necessity,as out 4 year old daughter us autistic, and when out and about , specilay near beaches etc,the internet is virtually non existence. With out it she gets very stressed . Last time.e this happend we had a 6hr meltdown she got that stressed :( so this is really good news. Can't wait :D
Just because the signal is coming from a satellite, it doesn't mean it is a lot of power. Its simply a directional beam antenna pointed down, hence the cones of coverage. Don't need a lot of power to talk from the ground to satellite. The high gain antenna allows the same devices to be used, and compensates for the distance between them. The cell phones don't need to send max power to use them either.
Someday we will realize how bad all those microwaves are to people animals and plants
Dave, I couldn't say anything more than you. I agree with everything you say. We are done. Strong delusion in the land. I will fly the flag of the Confederacy.
One question. I understand that a big satellite has enough power to reach your phone. But how can my phone reach a sat which is 540 km away. A mobile phone has about 2 Watt i guess. I suppose this transmission power is not enough to reach 540 km????
Bit more to a proper GPS in am 18 wheeler vs software available to a phone... Route matters, the software on your phone doesnt know where trucks arent allowed, where the GPS us truckers do. Its not just connectivity.
Would be cool if Starlink starts to act as their own cell service provider, I refuse to use T-Mobile and I hate AT&T
Elon has really accomplished some amazing feats.
as I live the high desert of n/w NM we have many canyons with non existing service & with many hundreds of people working in the oil & gas industry it can be vert dangerous to be out there. I know as I spent a couple decades in it myself. @ 1 point I had the idea of building a network of tethered blimp based antenna areas to allow for service in these type of areas. it could be cheaper in the short term at least. Allowing for the fact that air traffic could avoid hitting the blimps & tethering cables.
Now on is Ukraine. I really hope in future if you are on Himalaya your able to watch your U-tube video. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 So it's like internet connection @ airplane in the flight. And also like of US Navy Sub connections capabilities so in future able to 👀 U-tube video @ Guam Pacific ocean bottom. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I see your shirt U were former 🪖 US Army CAV.
We are so excited about it!! We must just get these corrupt SA clowns out of the way to have it in our courtry.... But they want to profit from this opportunity, as always at the cost of millions of citizens.....
I purchased the iPhone 14 Pro with satellite communications so adding phone calls and video calls would be great and then add internet access and it’s a full service package to help humans create more to help others. 😊❤
😂😂😂 iphone fan boy 👦. The satellite feature on the iPhone will drain your phones battery in minutes.
Has any information been put out that tells us how much this will cost on a monthly basis? Will customers with Starlink service be given priority? Thanks for the videos.
I know this is direct to your cell phone, which is next level, but can you already do this with their antenna? If you already have Starlink with your own antenna, aren't you able to connect your phone to that to do everything? Call, text, search internet, etc?
So basically they know where you are, anywhere. Even when there's no cell service in the internet. NO THANKS
From radio frequency path loss prospectus the average cell phone is designed to send a signal a few miles. I dont see how it can connect 500 miles up without a directional ground antenna.
So will the phones have to transmit at a higher power output reducing battery life when communicating with a satellite.
As for living in a rural area area our service no matter what provider we go with we might get one bar. The cell towers are located along the interstates to provide service to the cities. It's like, the hell with the country folks....
I think its a mistake to make new satellites more invisible. Think about it, every time someone posts online "What is that in the ski just after sunset", it causes a natural advertising for StarLink.
I hope this means Starlink phone service and phones are close! Even an X phone 📱. Just give me the option to dump my current provider and I'm gone. They never show long standing customers loyalty so why should I.
It’s a mistake not to be able to know if you’re connected to a terrestrial cell or a Space-X cell. A person in remote areas hiking etc needs to know so he/she can have confidence that he/she has a reliable telephone/text connection, to inform the person whether he/she has terrestrial data speed or slow Space-X speed, and so that the person can ascertain what charges he/she will incur!
But what hes not talking about is tje horrible battery life when using satellite. 😮
How does a phone connect to the satellite? It uses too much power, since it is really far. How does this connection work?
Using the most unreliable smallest network in the sky, use iridium and Inmarsat with truly global coverage
Huawei Mate 60 pro phone can call anyone via China's geostationary satellite ( 36000 km above) network since Aug 2023. Currently only cover China, will extend to cover the world.
Cool!
🚀
Going to be great.such a great deal. Whenever I want from wherever. Love it!
Down on river or up on mtn.
Crazy.. right!
Great news! Go Starlink!!!
🚀🚀
7000 cell towers 😳
Skynet approves this message
All in Low Earth Orbit
Absolutely amazing tech! I wonder what they will do with pricing, if anything. Voice communications will be interesting. Will it always grab the satellite over a tower if you are outdoors? Will it be able to switch from tower to satellite to tower and vice versa with no detectable difference? If Musk's companies are in the game I have no doubt it will come to fruition, just not as fast as he or us would like. Great work and thank you for a great channel.
Good questions. Looking forward to seeing the answers, especially whether it will be affordable to the average user.
If SpaceX were smart, they would use a subscription App. and stay out of the provider mess.
Grilled was the right word, they will grill the whole earth, and you can't escape.
No escape from EMF radiation.... Some people would be really scared of that.
This is a great innovation specially to a place where super typhoons are very common.
In my country, cell towers usually take a few months to be fully operational again after a massive hit by super typhoon.
Life is boring without internet while waiting for the service provider to repair the cell towers..😅
"Are we gonna get radiated"? 🤣🤣 Prob. not BUT in the name of convenience as we have found the past 3 years, we will lose more privacy, personal data and our rights. T Mobile just changed their TOS to include financial punishments for saying things they don't agree with (misinformation) according to T Mobile, not the Constitution. Unfortunately as a long term customer, I'm saying so long to T Mobile.
Agree. As for the TOS, I believe when I read the document it was aimed at businesses / companies using and reselling the service.
Could there be a problem of health in the future of communication technology
So I wonder if 911 (or equivalent emergency numbers worldwide) will work the same way as terrestrial networks? That would mean you can call for help even if you're not a T-mobile customer, or don't even have a SIM card in the phone. That's definitely a great public service.
For those who are not on metrics...550Km is about 341.75 miles.
It is interesting to me that TMo’s parent company Deutsch Telecom isn’t a partner. 😮
Must be a reason. I personally think was has been going on in my motherland is f’UP over the pass 5-10 years.
Assuming your existing phone can work on PCS (not all phones physically can use those bands and channels) then the phone will still need to have Starlink added as a roaming service provider. That will probably need to be done manually, as cellular providers stop providing OTA upgrades generally after two years.
And there will probably have to be an OS or app upgrade, to tell the phone to use--and pay-- for Starlink roaming.
Not quite automatic coverage. Although 2025 phones may have it built in, and an incentive to upgrade phones.
This would be good for making an SOS of MAYDAY MAYDAY call if you have an injury or mishap in an empty wild area. Walking on the hills or becoming disorientated in woodland areas. Be good for small boat sailors on the coast and oceans. Mapping would be good too with your location and exit routes.
I still keep a proper ATLAS with me so I know where the heck I am. It's for the bigger roads, doesn't have every new development (subdivision) in it but man if the power goes down and I'm out in the middle of nowhere I can still get my ass home!
Facts!!
This sounds like great news!! I moved from Comcast’s/Xfinity internet services to Starlink Satellite Internet and we are MUCH MORE Happier with the speed of service and virtually no buffering at all (once I had moved the dish to its permanent spot on the roof). Even though the speed test say they are slower than what I was receiving via Comcast cable internet I can assure you the user end experience is much faster. I did also add my own modem so I can choose what kinds of internet usage gets priority and believe this helps a lot. I use an ASUS GT-AX11000 PRO and it has many great features for those that have a little more advanced knowledge of computers but don’t let that intimidate you as there are so many useful videos online like many of yours @JCristina!! Keep up the great work!
It's not internet data, or talk. for now, it's ONLY SMS
@16:51 Smartphones are equipped with a GPS receiver that can receive signals from Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), such as the Global Positioning System (GPS) and have always been able to leverage raw/direct GPS signals without assistance (A-GPS) from local providers.
My thoughts are that I had better buy a Faraday bag for my phone!!!! 😆
Motorola was going to do this in the '80s. But they stayed analog when cell phones came out.At that time they had 85% of all mobile phone business. They could of owned the world!
Yep. The IBM building I use to work at in Boca Raton Florida had a massive Motorola plant. Gone! In the 90’s I believe.
This sounds awesome, previously when I was using my cellphone GPS i lost signal and the cellphone GPS was worthless.
Will there be a service fee to use this service?
I have T-Mobile and I’ve traveled to 13 countries in 11 US states this year. My cell phone worked everywhere except Tennessee. I’m planning on moving there so the service might be useful to me.
Sounds good sir hopin to hook on from Suva fiji islands
I love it, especially for those in rural and undeveloped areas around the world. It'll be a giant leap for those folks who want connectivity like many of us already have, such as my 40 to 120 mbps landline internet. Will I change to satellite Internet any time soon? Probably not, since it will likely be more expensive. But, for many, it'll be a God Send.
Being able to use the same network in every country you go to will make travelling cheaper and easier than it is at the moment.
that is not what this is and it wont be that for a long time
Glad I'm not in the satellite phone, or Garmin SOS service business. That's done.
Facts
I wonder if once it is up and running, rural folks can just aim their weboost antenna into the sky and have connection inside the home.
I guess you would need T-Mobile.
FYI: - SpaceX is trying to Reduce Starlink latency to under 20 milliseconds. Per Elon, “The Starlink V3 WiFi router is *much* better. Please let me know if you notice the difference. We are also super focused on getting latency below 20ms if the user terminal and ground gateway can both be seen by a single satellite. P50 ping
Is star link more secure than Verizon?
The problem I see is can a current cellphone transmit a signal far enough to connect with a satellite or are we all going to have to get new ones such as Tesla's new starlink phones?
It can communicate. No upgrade needed.
I would give you a thumbs up if you were talking in miles instead of kilometers or at least both.
Thanks for the offer.
I live in iran and goverment is banning the accese with outside world by banning the internet I hope the dtc thing can help us to have accese to free internet
Great point to its use. Free the minds of the people of the world.
I used your video yesterday to purchase service from a starlink roam system in NC. Thank you for your expertise with starlink, going up in 2 weeks from Florida
Great to hear! Glad to help!!
This'll be especially useful for those on long cruise ship journies. Soon cruise lines will be able to partner with Starlink and T-Mobile to provide a revolutionary experience in terms of cell sevice and high speed insternet on cruise ships.
mass global human tracking lmao
Lol we already have that
I hope this is coming to Australia soon,
Living in New Mexico in the Rocky Mountains means LOTS of very dead spots. This would provide me with a simple and easy way in case of emergencies while camping and hiking. Thanks for the update. Can't wait until it's available for general public.
I seriously doubt that they will move the satellite as that requires fuel and the satellite has limited fuel. (10:32)
When they run out and they have not figured out a full service refueling method like SpacePlane they will run out and burn up in the atmosphere.
Wow I didn't knew that about Entel in Chile 😮 greetings from Chile and using Starlink 😌
🚀🚀🚀🚀
there was a time when landlines was as common as popcorn now the advent of free internet is coming....
Yes!
Is it possible to do that in Canada Toronto
Actually, due to direct "line-of-sight" - the power required by LEO satellites is quite low.
Terrestrial cell tower connections are hampered by many obstacles between the user and the cell tower.
You won't get "fried" from space Joe! - lol - Cheers.
Elon being a major player in EVs, solar power, battery storage, Neuralink, SpaceX and Twitter as well as being one of the richest people in the world, he can pretty much control the world. Especially if he'll now have access to everyone who signs up to this. Yes, it can help people out, but it can be used nefariously too.
I assume you have to T-Mobile? I read Verizon is going to partner with Amazon, but that is going to be a couple of years before they get their satellites up. So for now, it looks like T-Mobile?
I'm a backpacker. It would be great for me to stay connected to family.
Will this be an extra cost option for T-Mobile customers?
i think they are just baking it in to their service as a perk.
Getting excited I've been following Starlink satellites connection good I'm with Tmobel can't wait..
Pretty cool service! First I've heard of it and I am a tech guy.
You wouldn’t be able to access service from indoors I would imagine. So you would need either to couple it with cell service, or starlink indoors
Correcr
@@jcristina do you believe it will be partnered with cell service? Or with starlink home internet service only? I know they’re partnered with T-Mobile for trials, but I wonder if that will become the norm
You forgot to mention the advantages for full spectrum dominance in surveillance,
as there is no need to wait for people to have to ping of the closest cell tower that they wander by. 🤔
This is great news for Australia 🇦🇺 👍
Our Aussie government will probably impose some form of restriction or put an excessive tax on it and make it super expensive
