Android users: is geolocation crap outside flagship phones running Google Play Services? I have a Murena 2 for dev and am surprised by the accuracy.
After going outside, it takes a long time (sometimes minutes) to get a halfway usable fix (~50m). And even then, positioning is much less accurate than I’d expect.
