Starlink Lowers Performance Package Cost: learn the revised pricing details
Starlink, the satellite internet service provider, has announced its latest offerings: the Starlink Performance Kit and Mini Kit. Here's what you need to know about these innovative products.
Starlink Performance Kit
The Starlink Performance Kit is designed for versatile connectivity use cases, particularly in harsh environments. It is housed in a durable aluminum enclosure and built to withstand extreme weather, remote locations, and in-motion usage.
The Performance Kit is available in two tiers: Local Priority and Global Priority.
- Local Priority Plan: This plan is ideal for fixed locations like homes or businesses and starts at $65 USD/month. It offers reliable internet service for your stationary needs.
- Global Priority Plan: This plan offers priority service worldwide, making it suitable for land mobility, maritime, and aviation use. It is designed for on-the-go or mobile deployments and starts at $250 USD/month.
The second-generation Performance Kit includes a 2-year warranty and offers download speeds in the 200-400 Mbps range. Additionally, it is optimized for maximum performance, especially on Priority Data plans, and supports in-motion use.
Starlink Mini Kit
The Starlink Mini Kit is a more compact option suitable for residential users or those who don't need extensive connectivity. While no specific details about the speeds offered by the Mini Kit are provided, it is currently on sale, available until July 7, 2025.
Third-Generation Performance Kit
Starlink recently debuted its third-generation Performance Kit, featuring improved durability, lower power draw, and upcoming gigabit-speed upgrades in 2026 via software enhancements. No hardware changes are required for these upgrades.
Availability and Pricing
Both the Starlink Performance Kit and Mini Kit service plans are available through the official Starlink Business page. The Performance Dish currently costs $1999 and does not include a router, but Starlink may offer a free Gen 3 router at checkout.
The previous-generation Performance Kit is currently on sale in the U.S., with a discounted price of $999 USD. However, specific details about this model after a nationwide sale are not directly mentioned in the search results.
For those interested in understanding previous generations of the Starlink Performance Kit, it would be beneficial to look at reviews or technical specifications from when those models were available. The current Starlink Performance Dish represents a significant upgrade, particularly in durability and performance, which might suggest that previous models were less robust in these areas.
