Starlink Phones Launch in Philippines | Durham News

This leap bridges the digital divide in areas like the Philippines, where 4% lack mobile service, and proved vital during a recent earthquake. While the U.S. rollout fizzled, global expansion is key—and with xAI now part of the SpaceX ecosystem, every new subscriber brings Elon Musk closer to his revenue dreams.
