Now that Suunto app beta for Android is available, anyone can save a route on app - “Record with app” with any of these smartphones (http://www.usegalileo.eu/EN/inner.html#data=smartphone)? Please put the printscreens here.

@solid_dd In iphone 5S yes and works well. But my objective it was see with one of these smartphones listed that support Galileo to see saved route.

Unfortunately on smartphones it is not possible to choose per system. All that are supported are enabled by default. it’s a shame, how are we going to compare the reliability of systems? You put all cats in one bag… mixing systems with different levels of accuracy sometimes makes you screw up. That’s what I suppose to be found with Navstar + GLONASS. It’s similar to all brands, if you’ve seen Jonathan’s tests: http://fellrnr.com/wiki/GPS_Accuracy. Take a look on Spartan Trainer only with Navstar, and the score that model have! But other crucial component and localization is very important: the antenna.

Take a look a zoom of the same route saved with SSS. The first Navstar+GLONASS. The second with just Navstar. Much better second registry.

I have completely the opposite.
Glonass for me does miracles.
Greece + NL + France
Overall improvement +40%

Also dont forget that Glonass will improve and is improving dramatically in 2018

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos just with new K generation.

Luís Pinto · 22 Jan 2018, 16:13

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos It’s like i say to you before, latitude is very important variable for results.

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos · 22 Jan 2018, 16:13

@luís-pinto yes that is true!
did you read that Glonass have reduced some noise etc?

Luís Pinto · 22 Jan 2018, 16:17

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos About this theme i read a lot. But we have to be on account the real results. I believe that Glonass in some latitude is useful. But in anothers mess all thing. I gave one simple example. And in the city same results.

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos · 22 Jan 2018, 16:18

@luís-pinto Ok. Correct !

Paulo Silva · 22 Jan 2018, 16:22

occasionally I turn GLONASS on, but didn’t see any big difference, except the battery !!!

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos · 23 Jan 2018, 20:49

@Luís-Pinto lets move this to the feedback area?

Luís Pinto · 23 Jan 2018, 21:41

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos as you wish! Feel free!
