I wonder if there was a reason why all the companies started taking it off the inbody. I just really hate having to rely on another device for gps. I always seem to forget to turn it on my phone and then if I accidentally close out of it then I’m without tagged images. I would gladly take the minimal battery hit to have it integrated. And you can always turn it off in camera if you really must save battery life. Although I’d argue that this day and age you have USb-c charging/tethering so you can have a 10k+ Mah pack in your bag to handle these situations. 
unfortunately  it still appears that integrated GPS is not here in newer bodies. Even my Sony A1 doesn’t have it. It’s bizzare. It loved it on my 5d4.
