Overall ths is great “golf only” watch. The accuary is excellent, simple to initiate and start a round. I have had a couple of issues with scoring rounds not being scored and some courses starting at 10 instead of 1 (but watch petty quickly works out you arent on a 1050 yard par8). I did plenty of research and didnt want to spring to for the bells and whistles Garmin as i wear an apple watch for EDU. Unique charger is a ball ache as you have to remember take it if away for the weekend (tour). You will also need to be able to connect a USB cable to a comuter to do the large Firmware update – worth noting for tablet and phone only users.

Voice Caddie reached out and sent me an updated watch to try out. I gave it to my father (late 60’s) who loved it immediately after using it. I watched him using it over the course of 2-3 rounds of playing together to make sure it was truly operating as expected.
For him it was fairly intuitive. The GPS worked as expected as did a number of other features.
It sounds like my previous review might have been due to software bugs that have since been fixed. As a result I’m updating my review to 5 stars.

I played with this watch over 5 different times (using both the gray and black versions). At one of the courses, hole 10 and hole 1 run in parallel. Despite clicking “change hole” 3-4 times, the watch would not let me change the hole which was infuriating.
Moreover, in many different courses, my phone golf GPS app and the watch showed wildly different numbers. The phone was always within 1-2 yards of my laser range finder.
I was really excited about the full map overview and touch targeting in this watch. It suffices to say that I was sorely disappointed.
I brought up the concern to their “support” line and they suggested I factory reset the device and try again.
This is pretty clearly some sort of software / hardware issue. At this point, I can’t in good conscience recommend this watch to anyone (despite how much I wanted to like it).
