Is the uBlox NEO-M8N really better than the NEO-6M? In this video, we connect the NEO-M8N GPS module to an ESP32 and test its signal strength indoors vs outdoors.
The M8N is more expensive than the standard 6M module, but does it provide a faster satellite lock? We test it live using the TinyGPS++ library.
*Components Used:*
ESP32 Development Board
uBlox NEO-M8N GPS Module with Active Antenna
Jumper Wires
* Key Topics Covered:*
Wiring NEO-M8N to ESP32 (RX/TX Pins)
Using the TinyGPS++ Library
Live Indoor vs Outdoor Signal Test
Price & Performance comparison with NEO-6M
