T-Mobile’s shares climb following its Super Bowl Starlink announcement

T-Mobile shares climbed early Monday, following the carriers announcement that it opened a beta trial of its Starlink-powered satellite texting feature.

The company said that 500,000 square miles of coverage dead zones (areas not covered by cell towers) across the US can now send and receive texts through the service. Voice and data abilities will come later.

The service — which was highlighted in a 60-second Super Bowl commercial on Sunday — will be free until July, when it will shift to $15 a month for most T-Mobile customers and $20 a month for those on networks like Verizon and AT&T.

Tesla’s market share fell from 48.7% in June to 42% in July to 38% in August, according to Reuters.
