Supposedly the software uses a fusion of several sensors in addition to the compass, and Skeye makes it easy to recalibrate by pointing your scope at celestial landmarks near your object and fixing onto them, meaning you can use it for high-tech star hopping.
It's therefore not entirely about the absolute accuracy of the compass, more the precision and stability, combined with other sensors like accellerometers.
These sensors in the LG apparently were worse than the ones in my iPad and Galaxy S3 phone.
