Many users now have access to SpaceX Starlink's internet service, particularly in the United States.
Now, one of Elon Musk's broadband consumers has released a screenshot demonstrating that his internet service has topped 400Mpbs. This was confirmed by Reddit user u/AtlanticQuest in a Reddit thread.
He stated that he was using Starlink internet to install a 43GB game. He was able to download the title in just 25 minutes due to the broadband service's rapid speed.

According to Tesmania's most recent assessment, the majority of Starlink customers are witnessing performance of roughly 100Mpbs to 200Mpbs when using SpaceX's Starlink internet service.
A mockup of SpaceX's Crew Dragon spaceship is presented during a media tour of the company's headquarters and rocket factory in Hawthorne, California, on August 13, 2018. SpaceX intends to launch NASA passengers to the International Space Station in 2019 via the spaceship Crew Dragon, a passenger counterpart of the robotic Dragon cargo ship.
However, inhabitants of Newfoundland, Canada, appear to be able to get Elon Musk's broadband at a faster rate.
At the moment, the speed of Starlink is still location-dependent. This is why the Tesla CEO is stepping up efforts to significantly improve the internet service.
Musk predicted that by 2022, Starlink would have a consistent speed of 300Mpbs and a low latency of 20ms. SpaceX confirmed this data during a recent meeting with the Federal Communications Commission in the United States (FCC).
On the other hand, they intend to reach approximately 10Gbps. However, this would still take an inordinate amount of time. If you're interested in learning more, you can visit this link.

However, some governments have expressed reservations about the programme. These include the New Delhi government, which believes that Starlink has not yet complied with the country's regulations.
While this is true, the decision to quit your present internet provider and switch to SpaceX Starlink is entirely up to you.
In other news, researchers warned that the growing number of Earth satellites could have a significant impact on LEO. By contrast, SpaceX's Starships rockets are currently being used to construct Mars Base Alpha.
