First look: Fi Ultra Starlink pet tracker
The Fi Ultra is a new pet tracker that integrates Starlink satellite connectivity to provide location tracking in areas without cellular coverage. While it offers advanced connectivity, early reviews note concerns regarding its physical size and battery performance.
Why it matters
This product represents the expansion of satellite-to-cell technology into consumer hardware, specifically targeting the pet safety and outdoor recreation market.
Fi Ultra is the first Starlink-enabled pet tracker you can buy. It expands on GPS and LTE trackers, adding automatic failover to T-Mobile’s T-Satellite-branded direct-to-cell service when venturing into cellular dead zones. That lets owners tap into SpaceX’s constellation of low Earth orbit Starlink satellites to track their pets anywhere in the US. But it comes with a few tradeoffs based on our early testing, including relatively poor battery life for a pet tracker.
