I want Starlink, so... Moto G Power 2024?
So my Pixel 4a apparently isn't satellite compatible. I've always thought that satellite connectivity, even if it's just SMS, would be worth it to me. It's the kind of feature I'd pay for. So, I gu...
The Pixel 9 series are decent. My first ever in the Pixel line, is my Pixel 9 Pro XL. If you sign up to tbe beta and get in. There might be a $5 off each month early adopter discount for the Starlink service if you decide to keep it unless your plan already has it included, like on the Go5G Next as an example.
Band 26 is fairly important when connecting to Starlink. Most newer devices do have that. Because it's a satellite service, it will more than likely stay on that band until the FCC and other reglatory agencies decide there is a better option.

Earth's inner orbits are going to look like a recycling dump with all of those cubeSAT's up there. :p

Thanks! I didn't know about the Band 26. So that's helpful.
I'm not sure I'd be interested in another Pixel again. This one works, but there are things I don't like about it like not having a built-in FM radio for emergencies.
