Hi @Ihmetys,

At present, Xperia XZ Premium is the only Xperia device that supports Galileo satellite navigation.

Note! Not all variants support Galileo satellites in U.S. territory.

If we need to be totally honest the information provided by the Galileo Consortium are sparse and not at all satisfactory. The SOC that are compatible and Galileo ready are, for example, Qualcomm 650/652 and newer.. Problem is that at the moment there are no android apps using the European GNSS.

Hi

When we get Galileo support for Sony xperia X Performance?

I just upgrade Android 7.11  but that not add Galileo support yet.

Example https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chartcross.gpstest

support also Galileo satellites so

I living north of Finland  (N 65° 12' ) and GPS not working well in forest so  Galileo needed.
