Mobile World Congress
The SpaceX corporate logo is displayed at the Fira Gran Via outdoor exhibit, marking the launch of Starlink Mobile (Direct-to-Cell) services during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, on March 5, 2026. The display features the Starlink V2 satellite payloads, which utilize a massive phased array antenna and MIMO technology to deliver 5G speeds of up to 150 Mbps directly to unmodified smartphones. The hardware showcase includes the Starlink Standard V4 terminal, powered by a custom SpaceX-designed quad-core ARM SoC for electronic beamforming, alongside the Gen 3 Tri-band Wi-Fi 6 router supporting up to 235 devices. The exhibit highlights the integration of 3GPP Release-19 NR-NTN standards for seamless handovers between terrestrial and satellite networks, providing critical voice and data connectivity through eNodeB payloads in orbit for emergency services and remote industrial operations.
