This is NOT a GPS tracker - do not buy if you want accurate GPS tracking. - Věda a technologie
Thanks for taking the time, appreciate it. These ads popping all over the place especially on FB at $20 US
They are like 4 bucks on ali express. I suppose you are american where there's a fuck ton of teenagers drop shipping
$5 on eBay lol
Never buy ANYTHING on Facebook. 100% of ads are 100% bull malarkey scams.
Great info! Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.
Thanks Mate. I just started looking for tracking and saw this on Walmart. Glad I started here.
You are a gentleman and a scholar, thank you!

@@sinisaparlic2741 Folks - don't click on that link unless you want an ad for exactly the same POS that this video explains is a scam.
Thank you for this !! I was fixing to buy 4 of them !

Atleast you got the magnets inside yours! They expect me to use blue tac or something !
I’ve been sitting here for hours wondering why this 5g sim isn’t working, that makes sense, I will go and get a 2g one and try that.
Thank you for your video 👍🏽
I bought a magnetic car phone mount from eBay with a much stronger magnet & a sticky pad (for attaching to car dashboard) so I stuck it to the gps gf07 & it’s a much stronger magnet than the one already fitted inside but I’m waiting for a 2G sim to arrive off eBay so let me know how u get in with yours
what network are you using, 2g,3g or 4g? cz the manual says you can only use it wt 2g ONLY
Sonny, a half km range is more ideal. A person may want to attach it to their own bike when going into a café shop or mall and chain the bike outside for that short time absence.
Something that may be of interest...
We purchased the TKStar TK905 and it works really well. So well that it was bloody stolen and we even knew where the thieves were.
We've since purchased a new one and it will be connected directly to the car battery and not thrown in the glove box.
good day! are the tkstar and tk905 ideal for cat tracking?
Does your tracker still work since 2g is not in use any more
@@danielcruzrodriguez1444 Yes.
Thanks for the video.. saved me a few quid and a lot of disappointment!
"A Formidable Educational Vid", thank you, at nine dollars Australian "silly cheap". I now know not to waste time with it (that's the big saving) but you've also taught me how a true GPS tracker works, and what to expect of it, very grateful, - John - Perth - Au'
This is NOT GPS tracker, but GPRS tracker. Tracking performed using cell phone stations. Accuracy is low ~1km, but still shows location. So, depends what you need.
That's true, it can be useful for some applications, but they advertise it as GPS tracker, hence it is SCUM
I want to add it to my cat's collar so I can find him on my farm during the day. I bought a Tile locator but it doesn't work in he's not within my Bluetooth range. I want an app that I can open and find him. Our tower is kms away so I'm thinking this won't work. Do you have any recommendations?
@@catherinepross8328 if your sim card cannot use kn 2G, it won't work
How about 5 - 8 km can still see the location correctly ???
Thank you so much for the knowledge, I would have purchased one! You saved me.
Thank you my brother , I was almost buying allso 2 of them like you 🙏
I don't even remember buying this. It showed up at my door and I vaguely remember searching for a GPS device about two months ago, I guess this is what I bought. The best value to this unit is the great laughter from my family as I read aloud the terrible instructions which utterly butchered the English language. Ah, good times.
Nearly bought one of these then seen this. Thanks dude. Saved me some cash.
thanx dude. 8 was thinking of buying one.
Thanks for your useful information, I just about to buy one
Thank you ! And what you recommended ?
thanks for this review - I have shared the link to it to all my friends
Was there a cheap alternative solution?
I create a list in my youtube channel with the name scams and i will store all the scam products that i wanted to buy but in the end of the day are scam. Thank you very much man for your time to make the video and teach us what to not to do.
Thank You, lucky I watch yr video !
True. Good. But these days GSM towers are pretty precise. At least you get an idea of general location within an area. You can get the same things from a smartphone with GPS location turned off.
Just come here from the pileofstuff chanel. You got a better deal than he did. LOL.
I wished I would have done my research. Thanks for doing yours. Can you recommend something similar that works out of the box? The Pros and Cons? I would appreciate it.
Same with me. I bought mine and it doesn’t even charge up. The people say that I have to put in the Sim card just to charge it up which is so weird
@@kurtmagnus5243 - For what it's worth, charging and SIM card presence are totally independent. On a normally functioning device it would charge without further issues. ;-)
We bit late but have tried settling it up and it did BUT like you said it don't give the right location but it dose take a sd card and I think that has something to do with it well keep you informed.
Wish I had seen your video first but at the same time it put me more Cautious
Wish I would have saw this video earlier, but thanks, quick ? for ya, do you have any GPS Tracker recommendations?
Finally, someone telling the truth about this thing, it absolutely worth less, at least that you want to make sure that is in the same town, but for real location is a joke
wish i watched this before buying , thanks for posting
i buy one in jamaica it dont too far sorry i buy it
Great advice ! But could you give us a tip regarding which gps to buy?
Thanks Bro I searched the internet to know how to make it using GPS instead of LBS with no luck. Now I knew it is just a GPRS only
However, I imagine it works well as a mini bugging device ?
Thanks for the info. Not buying its circulating on FB everywhere
i agree, its wrong to suggest gps which suggests satellites rather than phone tower locations
Thank you so much for your video This is exactly for CZcams should be for our things like this to be able to review have an honest open review break it down as to why said review says what it says and I found your video although 3 years after the fact of making it very very helpful and useful I went back and canceled my temu order Thank you so much Just wanted to say that
THanks for the video! I almost bought one for my bike. Is the GF-21 or GF-22 good enough to track in case of theft?
Do you have any recommendations on a GPS tracker that is small and does also have a GPS chip in it? Thanks.
Any old smartphone works perfect.
@@oscar3611 How old phone work perfectly???
@@oscar3611 you will get gps not tracker
It works just fine .
which gps tracker do you recommend?
Thank you! Do you have any suggestions for a gps tracker that would be good to conceal on a motorcycle?
Old smartphone hidden in your seat, connected to the battery. Use "find my device", a Google/Android service
@@oscar3611 Excellent idea!
Thanks I appreciate it I just received one
Hi man , can you please tell me does this device actually save call's or not .
@@montisino if you put in a sd card
That's is true I bought one and have more than 2km location error doesn't work properly unfortunately was too late for me. Tks
Hi, did you have anotheer solution more accurate ?
Great video
I just bought one damnit.
Which one would you recommend that is authentic?
I bought 4...wtf
thank you very much!
Thank you! 🙏
Does this support 3g? does the gf-09 support 3g? They're phasing out 2g in my country
Great video which confirmed my thoughts when mine arrived. It never even worked at all and after watching your video its now in the bin. pity i wasted moneyon a sim card. Any recpmendatios for an actual gps tracker?
The most important thing here is to disable SIM card PIN number in your cellphone first , than put it in so called "locator".
Good job,thanks
Thank you very much. Did you find any other reliable offer in a similar price? Or at least something reliable up to 20€;
I bought one and was laughed at just by reading instructions. Did you find another Tracker that actually works?
Love you good job.
If you have such a fake, find out that it responds to other commands. The APN setting is done with the Apn # net # command, where "net" is the apn of your network. The imei # command will return the imei code but will not go to any site. After setting the APN, command 777 will respond with a Chinese link
Good information. Question, Wich one can i buy, with real gps system and mini?
GF-21. Just received one and it works properly with real GPS. Can also be modded to feed a Traccar server.
Where to buy gf-21 sir? Thanks sir.
@@atzie Same brand of tracker? Does it come with a sim card and memory card?
Whats the range on it? How far till it looses connection?
Thanks sir, really tou are great informed.
Nice video. Very helpful :)
Where did you buy this! I bought one and forgot where I bought from
The company I seen was called UTech
thanks for the information
i almost bought one for my father's truck, thanks for mentioning that it's a complete fluke!
Thx for the warning. Do you know any real GPS trackers that uses SIM and are small size?
I have been exploring this device and so far I disagree with your conclusions, I am using a 4G network and the device works ok; it might be true that is not a gps tracker but the precision is around 400m which for most purposes is just fine, I mean at least for the price we should not expect more. thanks
When your GF asks to help install this on her son’s car - and I can send her this video lol.
Thanks mate
thanks - i was about to buy it
Did you find the best GPS tracking ?
I have one of these fake tractors emailed them to return it, but no response! Was wondering how & where I return it to get my money back?
I have one and I've been using it for a long time, it's bad for location, it's not precise, but that's why it's very good for spying on sound and conversations, that's why I use it, the sound is very clean and clear, just insert the sim card and call the number and listen to conversations in environment clearly
Does it still work and what or where did you buy your sim card
have you tried to use it outside your home?
wonder if the voice spy function works
Only can use 2g? I have a same prblm.. sms 000 n the answer that phone is out of service..
I find it great. Its pretty obvious for the price that its not GPS. Helps me find my car in the street where I have parked it.
How did you get it to send you location. I text 777 but get no reply back.
Cool vid! Saved me some money.
Any idea for a cheap actual GPS tracker with battery?
Thank you! Totally right... I've bought two of them...same problem...don't know what to do with this shit...!
Have you since found any decent GPS tracker you can recommend?
I can recommend gps-server.net this service allows you to use any old android or iOS smartphone that is just collecting dust. I’ve just set my phone up to use it and it’s really easy to setup. Just have a look. You get a free trial but then you can opt in for the 1 device at 15eruo for 1 year or choose a better, more suitable plan for your needs.
Thank you so much !!! Many people will not necessarily understand the difference in these 2 functionalities, (cell tower, and gps) before you explained them !!! Great job !!!
Please full review
Hi i need a gps tracker for of roads its not for véhicules maping
Its for my drone which means i need a real accurate position not a cell tower position
What do you recommend for tracking a drone that crashes in the woods
GF-21 tracker works well
You are a gentleman, thank you for your advice.
This is not a GPS Tracker as GPS Patch antenna or module is not present in it. do not buy it.
Returning mine today, its a bummer to go through all the hassle and find out the location it reports is 10 minutes away from the actual location and to top that its not runtime, so by the time you figure out the precise location the car had already moved on....
Dam a got 2 of wish a got 1 refund about to try the other thanks for video 👍
Ive just brought 1 from ebay not to happy tbh but can any one please recommends a gmp tracker please and thanks for all the advices guys
I track my phone with the help of #WIRELESS_HACKER1 on Instagram.
Thanks man
Do I have to buy a SIM card for it to work?
Do I leave it in ?
Yes, you will need to have a separate SIM card and you will have to leave it in
How about the GF-21? Its a real gps?
I was another one deceived by the this junk! Meaning the sellers... Thanks for your update.
PS:I didn't saw my money back since it was long(er) ago! ;-)
So what is a good small tracker to buy which is cheap?
GF-21
Be blessed 🙏 Brother....i could have bought it
But he is misleading. It works! I guess he just couldn't figure out how to make it do what it's meant to do.
@@sphegmail I did figure it out. It's not GPS. Works off GSM, nowhere near as accurate and not as labelled.
this video saved me from a scam.
I just ask for refund immediately I watch this video. I order 50 pieces. Thanks for saving my cash.
it works bro
"no gps" haha it is the simcard ho works as gps...this video is a joke lol he knows nothing about electronics
@@antonmelin1337 I've already requested my refund
This man is 100% idiots This is the Cheapest and the best GPS I have ever used
This man is Idiot 😂 and you beleaved it
When you get refund Order it again i swear this is the best
Yes i agree with you, it works perfectly fine. He was supposed to ask for help and not upload this nonsensical video cz this whole video is misleading.
thanks for your help
Use 1800Mhz band sim (in india it is Airtel).
Am using 2 # for since last 2 years, its working nice.
🇮🇳👎
I live in australia and the 2G network has been switched off so these do not work at all.There are a lot of companies selling on ebay and they are selling them with falsè advertising saying they are a GPS and one advert also claims they work with 4G sims not true, they do not work at all in australia.
in jamaica have to close
It is not a true GPS tracker, but for it's price it is a very nifty spy device. Even though location data may not be accurate, it can be accurate enough in certain use cases. And it comes with a microphone with record and live call ability.
It's probably best used as a spying device. Got one for less than two euro's to find out it was indeed too cheap to be a real GPS.
There’s an upgraded model called the GF21. It’s not too much more expensive but it has an actual GPS chip inside it. And it’s precise too.
They got me too
Hi, did you find the gf-21 voice detection work with 3,4,or 5g?
Did you put a sim card in and try it??
I track my phone with the help of #WIRELESS_HACKER1 on Instagram.
Thanks man
Mine works fine
I don't know the technicality as explained by this guy, but he's right.... This thing is rubbish
I bought one of these, setting it up wasn't a problem HOWEVER, I have 2 issues with it
1) The location is NOT accurate.... Had my car parked outside my house with the tracker in it, got the location and it showed my car was on a different street in my local hospital grounds..... I went to pickup some car parts the following day and while inside the store I got my location once again, it showed my location on the opposite side of the dual carriageway in a totally different industrial estate
2) I've tried to download the app for three days in the hope that it would make a difference in regards to getting a more accurate location, and everyday it keeps telling me registering device please try later
From my experience I'd say this is absolutely rubbish. What good is it if you'd stole my car, parked it on your drive but this thing is telling me it's somewhere else
100% agree. Do not buy these as they are very misleading. People are still selling them today. They are as useful as a chocolate fireguard. Throw in the bin. I did challenge the seller and they said it was good. I pointed out they were not for a number of reasons one of which is explained in this video. The 777 gave us back the location in Chinese. This was of no value to us. The instruction as do not agree with what they did.
Thank you
I too have the same problem, the red light doesn't go out, how can I fix it? When I call the phone number, the answer is "out of order".
