Review on Garmin Approach Premium Virtual 010 02200 00 by Pressure Cook

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Huge price, reliability, fur

I really like the features and functions of the watch. Looks ok for a sports watch. fur groups. They came up with a lot of really good features but didn't implement them. Battery life is terrible on the best of days. First of all and the reason for the 3 stars (and the trend towards less) is that I woke up today and it was TOTALLY dead from yesterday's load. When I plugged it in, it asked to restore the data. WTF? One more time and he's back, less than a month old. Pros: 1. Nice features, especially paired with CT10. The disadvantages are given below.2. Third party watch faces can be added for a personal touch.3. The Connect app is solid and fairly easy to use, but lacks some basic features like enhanced editing features. Cons: 1. The straps are very expensive and the non-genuine ones are complete crap so you're stuck with the provided silicone or either live your life disappointed or broken. 2. The battery life is terrible, a few days at most if you don't use it.3. The Connect app has a few good features but needs some work to make it more functional e.g. B. adding the ability to add your own club names like a cleaver. You can add a nickname but you cannot add your own club.4. Complete clock failure less than a month ago. You may need to send it back.5. The rounds of golf are pretty good. You need to keep an eye on the application because sometimes it misinterprets the data. For example, my longest shot is 295 yards. The only way to fix this is to delete the club and add it back. Invalid data cannot be edited.6. Watch straps are very expensive. Titanium almost as much as a watch. Availability is also questionable. All in all, would I buy it again? Probably no. I think you can expect more from a $500 tracker. This is a disappointing Garmin product compared to other Garmin products that I own. It has the potential to be great, but it's clearly not ready for prime time just yet. Based on past experience I'll probably look around for another one.

Pros
  • Battery life: up to 20 hours in GPS mode, 14 days in smartwatch mode
Cons
  • Update available
