T-Mobile Starlink has officially entered the public beta phase. The long-awaited announcement came during yesterday’s Super Bowl game and according to the carrier, its direct-to-device (D2D) satellite service can deliver connectivity to the “more than 500,000 square miles of the country unreached by any carrier’s earth-bound cell towers.”

Minutes ago, during the country’s largest annual sporting event, T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) introduced the next big thing in wireless — T-Mobile Starlink

Providing connectivity in areas where it’s never been available before will be incredibly useful for a lot of people.
