SpaceX has a new option for users who want to take their satellite internet with them.
Called Starlink Mini, it's a smaller version of the Starlink antenna. SpaceX says (via CNBC) it's a "compact, portable kit that can easily fit in a backpack," which provides "high-speed, low-latency internet on the go."
The new antenna, which costs $599, isn't widely advertised on SpaceX's website or social channels yet, Instead, SpaceX has been sending its customers emails, offering Starlink Mini as a limited release.
According to the VP of Starlink Engineering at SpaceX, Michael Nicolls, the company is currently ramping production of the Mini, which will be available in international markets "soon."
Notably, Starlink Mini is pricier than the standard Starlink antenna, which costs $499. But in its email to customers, SpaceX said that its goal is to reduce the price of the Mini, without going into specifics.
Sawyer Merritt listed Starlink Mini's detailed specs on X. According to his tweet, Starlink Mini is 63 percent lighter than the standard Starlink antenna, but consumes less power, has a built-in WiFi router, and has max download speeds of over 100 Mbps.

SpaceX is offering the Starlink Mini bundled with the Mini Roam service, which offers 50GB of mobile data (which can be used anywhere in the U.S.) for $30 per month.
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk chimed in on Twitter, saying that he setting up the Starlink Mini took less than five minutes, and that the dish is easily carried in a backpack.
