There are other services than google though. Why would the phone be a brick?
- ozim 3y agoI’d say when I travel I rely on Google maps. Without it, yes it is still possible to find your ways but it is so much easier using those maps on the phone especially in non-English areas.
- zarzavat 3y agoDoes Google maps even work in China? I thought that China used a different coordinate system.
- bdd8f1df777b 3y agoIt does work. The "different" coordinate system is only a facade.
- HWR_14 3y agoWhy would you want to use Google Maps in China? All the crowdsourced information wouldn't be available and the government is hostile to it. Wouldn't it be better to use whatever the Chinese competitor is? Unless your goal is to read about Tiananmen Square in Tiananmen Square. Which just doesn't sound smart. Obviously, it's different if you live there. But on a two-week vacation it doesn't seem worth it.
- smackeyacky 3y agoIts just not as easy as that. Most of the chinese services are tied to wechat or whatever and english support is patchy.
