Have you tested this with “stock Android” or with some google services powered application that claims to “only do GPS”? I’ve been in situations in the past where SFOS got a GPS fix while Android or iOS could not due to the lack of cell coverage or existence of wireless networks.
The harsh reality is that the comment that you made is only true because google and apple rely on wifi, GPS, cellular, etc. to obtain a lock, which SFOS cannot do easily, so GPS lock speed varies due ot a number of factors.
The best advice I read on this forum is to use the GPSinfo application whenever you know that you’ll need a constant GPS fix, which gives you an Android/iOS-like experience.
