Like other internet providers, Starlink is updating its offerings for 2025 in the Philippines. For its latest update, it has emailed its subscribers who have the “Residential + Portability” service that they will be given the Roam Unlimited Plan instead, which is priced at Php 4,100 a month.
Looking at their local website, Starlink is only offering two plans for Personal users in 2025: aside from the Roam Unlimited service, there’s still the regular Residential Plan that’s priced at Php 2,700 a month. The difference between the two is that the Roam Unlimited service lets you use Starlink nationwide—making it more suitable to those who need an internet connection on the go.
What’s unfortunate, however, is that you need to subscribe to both plans if you intend to use Starlink both at home and while you’re on the go.
While a Starlink kit is expensive—the Starlink kit will cost you Php 28,000–it utilizes satellite connectivity, allowing you to have access to the internet even in remote places. While speeds may vary depending on weather conditions, Starlink proved to offer decent speeds according to Speedtest, being able to attain median download speeds of 110Mbps based on its 1Q 2023 report.
However, Speedtest’s 3Q 2024 data shows that Starlink’s download speeds are at 26.8Mbps based on Speedtest’s reliability rankings, trailing behind the country’s major internet providers. Despite that, Starlink still has the benefit of giving users internet connectivity even in remote areas around the Philippines.
