Starlink is a high-speed broadband internet service provider serving 400,000+ subscribers globally. The company has launched 2500+ satellites into Low Earth Orbit (LEO). It aims at providing high-speed internet at affordable prices around the world and claims to provide 600x times faster internet speed than the average speed in the US.Their service is at present available in 32 countries.

SpaceX tech does not demand expensive launching costs and high-power satellites; thus, Starlink satellites are cost-effective and are becoming everyone's favourite.

But disruption in the global navigation and radio frequency interference are some concerns that Starlink may have to address someday in the near future.
