Device advice
Answered
Hello,
I am looking for a device (phone / tablet) to use exclusively with Locus Map offline.
Required features:
- very cheap
- no sim card
- from 5 to 7 inches display size. No HD needed
- long life battery
- wifi, even a slow one, used only to load offline maps and export / import tracks and waypoints. I would not use the device online for any application
- no or very poor camera (I am not going to use it anyway)
- good GPS receiver
- at least Android 6
- at least 16 giga internal storage to host offline maps
- I don't think a lot of ram and fast processor are required to have only Android and Locus run
Has anyone tested something with these features?
Please advise.
Thanks.
The same question
I have no brands to advise bit "no sim card" means a tablet. Make sure it has a hardware compass. Not all tablets do and hiking with Locus is no fun without such a compass.

Dear Hilbert.
I´m sorry, but we don't like to recommend a specific brand, I leave the question open so that others can share their experience.
Best regards.
