GPS and WiFi useless for months

Hi everyone, 

I'm starting to be a little bit upset about the totally catastrophic software support for Xperia XZ Premium. I will be brief. The GPS feature is uselles from the february of this year. If i try to found my location in map app, phone is not using GPS, but BTSs (mobile network transmitters) WiFi networks, but not GPS. In one of ten cases it uses GPS, but it's everytime inaccurate in hundreds of meters. So for navigating and orientation in terrain is this phone for more than half a year completely useless. That's your last year flagship Sony, congratulations. I'm not the only one, I discussed also other people with XZ Premium and they have completely similar problems as me, so it's not in my unit. Yes, I have the last software updates and I tried factory reset. I also tried to clear A-GPS data. Nothing helped. Now, WiFi is also completely useless feature on this phone. Signal of near networks is extremely weak, so I have to be maximally three meters from the router to get stable connection. There are tens of threads from people with the similar WiFi problem, it lasts months and nothing happens. I loved Sony phones and also because of that fact I bought this really expensive phone. But now I must say...Sony, no more. It's unacceptable to be without such basic features as WiFi and GPS for months only with low cost phone...and XZ Premium really wasn't cheap phone. So, can I expect that I will be ever able to use GPS and WiFi on my phone again?

Thank you.
