Gadgets to fly with

Hello everyone,

Before starting a new thread I did some searching through the forum and while I found a few threads about GPS/nav applications, I couldn't find much about the hardware which I'm about to use. Suppose I have already made up my mind to purchase a full SkyDemon subscription for my UK and nearby Continent flying. Suppose I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 phone and a Samsung Galaxy tablet. I know I can open SkyDemon on both of these, as well as on my PC when not flying. Now, both my Samsung gadgets have in-built GPS which I found has a short reaction time and generally knows where it is at all times. Do I still need an external GPS "dongle" like this or this? I think it is necessary for the iPad for example - has any of you got experience with Samsung (or other Android) stuff?

Thanks,



/h88
