Hi,

Does Xperia 10 Plus have Galileo GPS support ?

I read that Qualcomm 636 platform is compatible with Galileo.

Thanks for reply.

Hi @omakalaho, welcome to our community!

The Xperia 10 Plus does support Galileo satellite navigation, so you are correct!

The following navigation systems are available and supported in the Xperia 10 Plus: GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo and QZSS.

Keep in mind that BeiDou, Galileo and QZSS satellites are not used for providing location information in U.S. territory.

I hope that answers your question and have a nice day!

Hi Jonas,

many thanks for your prompt reply

I wasn't sure, because on whole internet and too on sonymobile.com site is written only : A-GNSS (GPS + GLONASS)

I'm very happy, I live in Europe therefore I want Galileo GPS.

Now I can buy my new Xperia

Kind regards and have a nice day too

Hi again @omakalaho and you're very welcome!

I had a look at the website and there it only mentions GPS + GLONASS as you said, but I also have access to a spec sheet where the information that I wrote is available, so the website has to be updated according to the spec sheet. It seems to only list GPS + GLONASS even for the Xperia 1, so there is something that is missing in the specifications on the website as the Xperia 1 also supports Galileo.

I hope that you will be satisfied with the Xperia 10 Plus and if there are any other questions before you buy the device or after, please let me know and I'll do my best to assist you!
