&gt; For consumers, if a device supports all the systems, (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and Beidou), would we be able to get greater accuracy, or if not greater accuracy, get our location faster than before?<p>At a minimum, consumers will see better accuracy in challenging conditions such as &quot;urban canyons&quot; simply due to the fact that they are more likely to have sufficient satellites in direct view.

The accuracy isn&#x27;t as great as existing systems, but it also can&#x27;t be turned off by &quot;the west.&quot;<p>For consumers, if a device supports all the systems, (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and Beidou), would we be able to get greater accuracy, or if not greater accuracy, get our location faster than before?
