HP Recommended
Product: HP Spectre x360 13.5 inch 2-in-1 Laptop PC 14-ef0000 RCTO Base Model
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I've had this laptop for about a year and the GPS is consistently inaccurate (at least in my house, I've noticed it every time - I haven't paid close attention to the GPS accuracy when I'm other places).   At home, in both Windows Maps and the Google Maps website it consistently shows me about 56 yards to the west of my actual location - literally a different house on a different street, which actually throws off its estimates for how long it will take to drive places (mostly though, it's just annoying that I have to switch my starting point from "My Location" to "Home" to get proper directions).   And, it's not the house that's the problem - the Google Maps app on my Android phone shows me in the correct corner of the correct room of my house... probably within a foot or two of my actual location.

 

Anyways, I'm wondering if there's some way to recalibrate the GPS or a firmware update, or whatever might fix it?
