Get an Android Tablet With GPS: Here is How To Choose The Best One

Today I tried to use an Android tablet with GPS. I got a cheap Android tablet a while ago, and I wanted to see if I could make it work as a GPS device.

First, I checked if my tablet has a GPS chip. It turns out most Android tablets do! That means they can figure out where you are without needing a cell phone signal, pretty cool. It seems like those expensive tablets with cellular data have GPS too, but even the cheaper ones without it are supposed to work.

I wanted a big screen so I could see maps better, and my tablet has a 10.9-inch screen. I thought that would be perfect for looking at where I’m going and planning trips. I also made sure the battery was fully charged. Battery life is super important, especially when you’re out and about. I didn’t want it dying on me in the middle of nowhere.

So, I installed a map app. Then I took the tablet outside, and waited a bit. It took a few minutes, but eventually, the app found my location! Success! I could see myself on the map, and the little blue dot was moving as I walked around. I tested it in a few different places, and it kept working. Even when I was far from any Wi-Fi or cell towers, the tablet still knew where I was.

I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. Now I have a big-screen GPS device that I can use for navigation, and I didn’t have to spend a ton of money on it. It’s not perfect, the GPS isn’t always super accurate, sometimes it takes a while to get a lock, but for basic stuff, it’s good enough.

Here are the basic steps I took:

• Got an Android tablet.
• Checked for GPS capability (most have it).
• Installed a map app.
• Went outside and waited for it to find my location.
• Tested it out, and it worked!

I am considering using it for marine navigation in the future. It is not that bad.
