Starlink’s V5 dish is now available — here’s how it compares

The new residential dish is notably smaller, lighter, and uses less energy.


SpaceX’s latest residential dish — the Starlink V5 — is now available in “select areas.” It’s notably smaller and lighter than the V4 dish with improved power efficiency.
