Starlink has clarified that the India pricing briefly visible on its website on Monday was the result of a configuration error, stressing that the figures were only dummy data and not the final cost for Indian customers.

Starlink fixes website error after India pricing appears briefly

The satellite-based internet service displayed monthly pricing of ₹8,600 and a hardware kit cost of ₹34,000 before the company removed the information. Starlink said the numbers were unintentionally visible due to a glitch and do not represent its official India pricing.

Lauren Dreyer, Starlink’s Vice President and Senior Director of Business Operations at SpaceX, said in a post on X that the India website is not yet live and that service pricing has not been announced. She reiterated that Starlink is currently not accepting orders from customers in India.

Dreyer added that teams are working to secure final government approvals to begin services in India, and the website will go live only after this process is completed.

Maharashtra signs LoI with Starlink for satellite-based connectivity

Even as commercial rollout details remain pending, Starlink’s India preparations appear to be moving ahead. Recent hiring activity in Bengaluru indicates strengthening operations, with roles announced across payments, accounting, treasury and taxation.

Separately, the Maharashtra government has signed a Letter of Intent (LoI) with Starlink Satellite Communications Private Limited to deploy satellite-based internet services for government institutions and underserved districts including Gadchiroli, Nandurbar, Dharashiv and Washim.

Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said the initiative marks Maharashtra as the first Indian state to formally collaborate with Starlink for remote connectivity solutions.

Oppo is gearing up to introduce its Reno 15 lineup in India, with the series expected to focus heavily on enhanced imaging, performance stability and creator-friendly tools. The smartphone, which has already been launched in China, is anticipated to reach the Indian market in the coming weeks although the company has not yet shared an official date.

Expected price range in India

Industry estimates suggest the standard Oppo Reno 15 will fall in the upper-mid price bracket. While the Reno 15 Pro was launched in China at CNY 3,699 (roughly Rs 46,000), the Reno 15 base model is expected to be more affordable, likely between Rs 32,000 and Rs 38,000, depending on RAM and storage configurations.

Expected features and specifications

The Reno 15 series is expected to highlight Oppo’s improvements in sustained performance, camera capabilities and thermal management. Globally, the models run on ColorOS 16 and feature advanced cooling, particularly aimed at gaming and continuous live-streaming use.

For India, the upcoming Oppo Reno 15 is likely to offer:

• A high-refresh-rate AMOLED display
• Triple-camera setup with a primary sensor optimized for better low-light clarity
• Secondary wide-angle and portrait cameras
• Front camera with autofocus and AI-led enhancements for live streaming
• Around 5,000mAh battery with fast wired charging support
• AI-driven system optimization for smoother long-term performance
  

Design-wise, it is expected to follow the Reno 15 Pro’s flat-frame style, offering a slim profile, improved durability and brighter display output. With growing demand for creator-focused smartphones in the country, the Reno 15 is being positioned for users interested in mobile photography, vlogging and gaming.
