UK Starlink customers can now nab Starlink hardware for £300, a massive 30% discount that cuts the price by about £160.

On top of that, the shipping fee has been halved from £40 to £20, meaning you could save almost £200.

It might still sound pricey, but Starlink promises fast download speeds of 200Mbps wherever you're located.

So, if you live in a remote area and don't have access to high-speed broadband, this could be a great option for you.

Starlink uses thousands of SpaceX satellites in near-earth orbit to beam fast internet around the world.

The company currently has approx. 3900 satellites in orbit and plans to expand this number to 4400 by the end of next year.

SpaceX has also been given permission to up its satellite array to 7500 by the end of 2027, meaning you could start seeing a lot more of them in the night sky.
