I would be OK with it if the Wi Fi only non cellular version came with GPS but once again GPS is limited to cellular only.
Is there any reason to do this besides price discrimination?
- unclenoriega 4y agoIt's probably using A-GPS.
- 0x457 4y agoA-GPS aka A-GNSS still uses GPS signal. The only difference is that metadata is downloaded via fast link (cellular or wifi) instead of slow satellite link. IIRC all mobile devices with A-GPS can download that over satellite link if needed, just takes longer. The real issue here is that it's integrated into a cellular modem, not that it's A-GPS.
