Perhaps there is some confusion about which models have built-in GPS, and
which models require an external device. The U2 Mini and BrailleSense
OnHand I believe are the two models that have built-in GPS. The other
models don't, as far as I am aware, and require something you can pair with
it.
I haven't played with GPS on my U2 Mini much to be frank. When I did look
at the beginning, I found a weak signal. It isn't one of the reasons why I
bought it to start with since I use my phone for that purpose when I want
to.
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

Yes, Braille Sense does havef an internal GPS. Nobody seems to have got a
good enough signal with it over here; but I do have an older Holux which
gives me another throw at the dice.
