Huawei pk Starlink. Which is better ?
- Thread starter Boonsiong
- Start date
After some anticipation, Malaysians will be able to enjoy access to Elon Musk's satellite internet service Starlink beginning today, July 25, 2023, with prices and subscription details now fully revealed.
For customers in both East Malaysia and Peninsular Malaysia, monthly prices for a Starlink subscription will begin at RM220 (US$48) with no contract, although new customers will have to fork out an initial RM2,300 (US$504) for the service's basic hardware, including a Starlink dish, a base, a WiFi router, and the necessary cables.

Only dumbasses choose anything Tiong related. For this kind of service, the main objective is to bypass censorship.

??? What on earth are you on about? Huawei doesn't have a starlink equivalent at the moment so there is nothing to "choose".

China gears up to compete with SpaceX's Starlink this year

BEIJING, March 2 (Reuters) - China's military-industrial complex is set to start building its first constellation of very low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites later this year, the latest Chinese bid to catch up with U.S.-based Starlink.
Starlink, operated by billionaire Elon Musk's Space X, has built a fast-growing network of more than 3,500 satellites in low-Earth orbit. It has tens of thousands of users in the United States so far, and plans to add tens of thousands more satellites to its system, the largest of its kind.
LEO satellites have the added advantage of being cheaper and providing more efficient transmission than satellites at higher orbits.
State-owned spacecraft and missile manufacturer China Aerospace Science and Industry Corp (CASIC) will launch the first LEO satellites of a planned constellation in September, the state-backed newspaper Global Times reported on Thursday, though it did not say how many satellites will be deployed in total.
While low-Earth usually refers to any altitude less than 1000 km (620 miles), the plan envisaged by CASIC will be made up of satellites operating at a "very low" altitude of 150-300km from the ground.
Most commercial aeroplanes fly at altitudes of below or around 14 km, according to the European Space Agency.
Amid tense ties with Washington and export controls that have cut off Chinese firms from some advanced computing chips, President Xi Jinping has called on China to build up technological self-reliance in all fields.
While CASIC and others have already launched their first LEO satellites, the gap with Starlink is likely to remain large throughout the next decade.
State-owned China Satellite Network Group Corp said in 2020 that it planned to build a fleet of almost 13,000 LEO satellites but so far progress has been slow.
Analysts estimate that China currently has no more than several hundred LEO satellites in operation and it would only reach 4,000 by 2027.

How China is going to compete when they are just copying? Or cloning. When u clone or copy, u lack the inner spark of the original.

“compete” only in prc as ccp can easily ban starlink from operating within the national footprint. eventually when ccp launches its own sizable fleet of 6.9k-passenger cruise ships to compete with the likes of royal caribbean, carnival, and norwegian it will have a “global” customer base in terms of ocean-going ships and crew and passengers on those ships, fishing boats and surveillance ships included. also all ccp airlines can equip their airplanes with homegrown leo sat transceivers for wifi on board. ccp must have something to show for even though they’re decades behind. at least during their national day they can claim they have 699 leo sats in the sky serving at least 6.9k customers by the year 2069. when elon shits and eat his shit and says it’s the best nutrition for humankind, ccp will also follow suit, copy everything, eat their shit, and say their shit stir-fried with gutter oil is way more nutritious. commies are like that, machiam like nk gooks making their own “iphone” lookalike.

Singtel's newer equipments are from China, eg ZTE, HW, etcOnly dumbasses choose anything Tiong related. For this kind of service, the main objective is to bypass censorship.

Elon musk say free internet from his Starlink.... why pay now? All his bs and how to trust him anymore...Only dumbasses choose anything Tiong related. For this kind of service, the main objective is to bypass censorship.
Nothing special in Starlink engine.... just cut and paste components supply by Chinese companies in China... so who copy who?
Not even 5G standard...
