Amazing internet connection in the Arizona desert
My job requires I work in the Arizona desert for 10 hour shifts. Normally i would do Long hour drives with no signal. I need signal to stay connected to my family, business and personal calls. When I was told about the Starlink mini, all I heard was positive reviews. Once I tried it for myself, Everything I’ve heard is true, amazing connection, super strong Internet, super speeds and clear phone calls. Everything I need in the middle of nowhere, literally. the great Arizona desert, where no cell phone tower insight for miles on end and with my Starlink mini, I am always connected with high speeds. way better than my home Internet and 10 times stronger than my regular cell phone Internet. highly recommend, don’t think about it, just do it. worth every dollar, the service is great. The plans are really good and flexible, you could turn unit off when not in use and you don’t have to pay what you don’t use. five stars all the way. Unit sits inside my dash, and stays connected while driving. Very impressive. Very happy with my purchase.

Rock-Solid Portable Internet!
The Starlink Mini Kit gives you internet almost anywhere you go. Setup is super quick and easy — just power it up, aim it at the sky, and you’re online in minutes. It’s compact and lightweight, so it’s great for camping, RV trips, remote work, or backup connectivity when your usual service goes down. Users love how reliable the Wi-Fi signal is once it locks onto Starlink satellites, and it’s surprisingly fast for streaming, video calls, and general browsing. Most folks would definitely recommend it to a friend. Some buyers note service and return issues with Best Buy support, but the hardware itself gets consistently high marks for portability, speed, and connectivity — a perfect choice if you want internet wherever life takes you.

Work, Travel & Adventures
I bought the Starlink Mini to help me work on the road and stay connected. One week I might be running around in the city or another in the middle of BFE with no bars. I paid for the Starlink Mini with my own money. While yes I do use it for my job (laptop, iPad & cell phone), I really bought it also for safety while I travel. A way to not only help me get daily reporting in but also have Apple Maps, calls, emails etc in case I get stranded two hours from civilization. I have it mounted on the roof rack of my Subaru Outback. I also mounted a GL.iNet (Slate 7) travel router in the rear of the vehicle so I would have better connection inside the vehicle. Used some adhesive to stick a usb fan on it to keep the router cool during the summer months. After some trial and error, it works great. I would highly recommend if you travel or always need to stay connected. Check your nearest Best Buy location.
