They're really completely different product categories and shouldn't even be compared.

- lxgr 4y agoHow so? Starlink seems extremely competitive in bandwidth and terminal size with Ka and Ku band GEOs, while blowing them out of the water when it comes to latency.
- kalleboo 4y agoIt seems like it's a lot more complicated than "LEO vs GEO" and they are very much worth comparing. You have LEO stuff like Iridium that is targeted at pocket-sized terminals at very low bandwidth You have GEO stuff like Sky Muster with large, fixed dishes, high latency and decent bandwidth Then you have Starlink with large, fixed dishes, low latency and high bandwidth
