Has anyone on the list used a phone that is built upon the MediaTek Dimensity 1000 here in the USA?  Do you see FCC-forbidden GNSS providers?

This SoC supposedly supports dual-band GNSS.  
I found a popular press listing that claims it supports all the providers (Navstar, Galileo, Beidou, Glonass, etc). 

MAYBE (if we're lucky)  MediaTek is not enforcing the FCC receiver blacklist restrictions?

Does the MediaTek chip receive and utilize the Galileo E6 precision location signal???

Below are links that list which phones are powered by the 1000 SoC and some other info.

Xiaomi Gaming Phone
Redmi H Series


The Dimensity 1000 has the most complete lineup of navigation satellite support, including GPS, Galileo, Japan’s QZSS, and China’s Beidou satellites,   


Incredibly accurate location services

With dual-band GNSS, the MediaTek-designed positioning engine is the most accurate ever, offering the most comprehensive global constellation coverage.

When GNSS is unavailable, the new positioning engine uses sensor fusion technology to continue to be the most accurate by providing the longest dead reckoning location performance compared to any other smartphone.

before some days i made a new topic
 - what about US civilian GPS accuracy
https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!topic/gpstest_android/smHcIDTcfKA

i forgot to add "FCC-forbidden GNSS providers". Thanks to user "Robert Enger" now i have one more proof that the US government does not want the civilian has access to accurate location services.
of course professional location devices like those with android - at higher cost- can have 30-70cm accuracy using only satellites signals.

now about this topic

probably the 99% of enthusiast people when they read
"Incredibly accurate location services"
inside their brain this translate to "this device has cm accuracy". Sorry people, but this is only a illusion of you. If this was true, why the manufacturer of chip receiver or the company of the device don't make measurements tests. As you can see there are only
- speed test with Antutu
- camera test
because those test likes to the 99.9% of buyers and of course are veritably.
