New iPad Pro running iPadOS 15.5.
I can’t get the gps to work, I have location services on.
It does work when using a hotspot but I was told it would work independently.
I’ve tried reboot, tried toggling on/off.

You only get GPS on the Cellular versions, not the Wi-Fi only ones

F@£#. I asked that very question in the apple store when I purchased it.
My old iPad I paid the extra £100 or so for cellular as it had the gps, in store they told
me they all had it now. bks.

Scroll down to Location features

Can you try taking it back & asking them to swap it as you were misinformed? They are more expensive though.
