“I have been an advocate from the V1. However, there are a number of items that could be better. 1 - universal power connector ( not the bespoke/unreliable ones we see on all models. Needs usb) 2 - x5, touch screen, which is useless in the rain 3 - even with normal use the sensors wear down and fail, requiring replacement. 4 - x5, battery life, better than at launch, but still not as good as v3. 5 - missed shots. Still a problem with this technology. Puts the onus on the user to keep score and edit. I have given up with scoring, as it is so unreliable All of these need addressing, but on the plus side customer service is usually good, and also new features are provided. I think the x5 was released too early, and the early adopters were used to beta/field test the new product. This had the effect of turning users off the product ShotScope can still do better for their customers, and need to based on the premium price they charge”

“I upgraded to this watch from the V3 and it has been great for me. It finds the course rapidly and the continual updates to the operating system have been good for me. I never used scoring but use it now and find it easy to use. I have a few missed shots but they're often duffed rough or bunker shots, which makes sense. I don't lock the face when playing which does lead to some problems with the watch switching holes when I have the watch face under a folded arm, for example. Statistics are great on the website. Frankly, I've never had a problem with the watch and have really enjoyed the step-up in the watch face and options from the V3 and the continual improvements to the OS from the ShotScope team.”

“Just to be brief, a nice display with a good battery and the gps seems accurate. But score keeping isn't that great. I have way too much to edit after a round every time. Many strokes don't register and I don't think a couple of the tags even work. I've still been using it but without reliable scoring I could've done the same with my Galaxy Watch 5”

“This is a great piece of kit - gives GPS yardages and Strokes Gained on all aspects of your game. However, you must be prepared to spend approx 15-20 minutes after every game, going into the app or website and saving/editing the round to pick up wayward shots, positional shots (i.e. punching out of the trees or second shots on par 5's), putts that are missing and correcting any errors or omissions you made on the course. If you are prepared for that this is a superb asset to your game.”

“Initially, my watch was just awful, especially with losing GPS signals but Shotscope replaced it and it has been absolutely spot on so far! Customer service has been A1! Brilliant product and the strap is a huge improvement on the previous offering with the V3. Additionally, the support and software offering of shot analysis is first class. I had the V3 and this is a step up, but the V3 is also excellent.”

“Watch was released without sufficient testing. Touch screen is extremely difficult to use.Simple options such as end round occasionally cannot be selected. Reported on many occasions but only ever receive the same feedback asking for information. I provide the information and hear no more. Slight improvements with each firmware upgrade. Asked if I could have a replacement if no one else was experiencing same issues but got no reply. Cannot even change the following questions. Is this for real?”
