Xiaomi mobile phone guest GPS navigation software and hardware detailed guide

First of all, the smartphone must be running Android operating system, at least version 2.1 (older phones with version 1.5/1.6 are not recommended!), and the screen size cannot be too small, at least 3.5 inches, 4 inches or 4.3 inches is even better (Android phones with straight full keyboards and horizontal screens should be avoided!), the resolution is recommended to be 800*480 pixels, so that drivers can see the road clearly on the small screen, and a capacitive screen is highly recommended, so that you can feel smooth when you touch with your fingers (of course, most Android smartphones are currently equipped with capacitive screens as standard). The larger the memory, the better, and the remaining space of the built-in storage must be guaranteed to be more than 3GB.

The Xiaomi phone uses a dual-core 1.5GHz processor + 266 MHz Adreno220 GPU hardware configuration, which is sufficient to run the navigation software on the Android platform. However, what interests the editor more is the Sharp 4.0-inch 16:9 screen with a resolution of 854x480. The design of the reflective film makes the phone semi-reflective and semi-transparent. It is said that it can still be seen in the sun. This is very tempting for car owners who often need to see the navigation map on the screen clearly in complex lighting environments in the car!

The size and weight of Xiaomi mobile phone are 125×63×11.9mm, weighing 149g. It is not too big and the weight is moderate. In the editor's opinion, in order to be worthy of your Xiaomi mobile phone, you should try not to save money on the car suction cup bracket. It is necessary to buy a flexible bracket that can be adjusted 360 degrees. In addition, the locking force of the bracket tray and the card holder must be moderate. It should not be too tight to cause long-term squeezing to leave indentations on the body, nor too loose to make the phone very easy to fall during sudden braking and acceleration. Whether to choose a cheap car suction cup bracket with general functions or a high-priced suction cup bracket with full functions, all car friends should have an idea in their minds!

As for the car charging adapter, in fact, as long as it is based on the principle of quality, safety and sufficiency, the editor strongly recommends that you choose a model that supports 12V-24V wide voltage input. After all, the voltage output of the cigarette lighter of each car cannot be very stable. Choosing a car charging adapter that supports wide voltage input has a greater chance of ensuring the safety of Xiaomi mobile phone when it plays the role of GPS navigator.

Editor's summary: This guide can be used not only on Xiaomi phones, but also on other Android smartphones

Hurry up and do it!
