    There seems to be a phone which does this for Galileo

    https://www.euroga.org/forums/maintenance-avionics/9482-dual-gps-smartphone-navstar-and-galileo-and-will-there-be-dual-frequency-gps-avionics

    but it would surprise me if anybody did a GPS chip which doesn't do
    the same thing for Navstar - because Galileo is a "future is great"
    thing while Navstar stuff is what is actually selling :)

    The broadcom BCM47755 chip in this mi8 does potentially everything, but
    i'm still awaiting reports on the actual gps performance figures.

    Doing a google on this topic it sounds like one can get decimetre
    accuracy by using L1+L2, and does away with WAAS/EGNOS.
