BUYER ATTENTION/but good ending

Like some other reviews. The watch worked great for 2 months and then broke, it just died in the middle of the night while charging. I am in the process of searching for a solution. I will update this review as I make progress. NOT HAPPY to see a $400 watch just die for no apparent reason! GOOD NEWS! Garmin customer service was 5 stars. I spent a lot of time trying to fix the problem and ended up sending myself a NEW watch which has been working great ever since.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • The list will be long.

The perfect GPS watch for golf!

I can't get enough of this watch! I read the reviews before buying and found that some people didn't find it that accurate all the time. Others wrote that the battery doesn't last long. I have found that the battery lasts several days after a full charge. I wear it on my left hand because I play golf with my right hand. I had this for six weeks and it worked great! And the instructions on how to pair it with my phone etc were so easy. winner for sure!

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • Other Other

Just played my first round with it. I've owned several Garmin Golf GPS units - S6, S20 etc - and the displays on the newer ones are much better than the older ones. This is no exception. it's really nice to watch. In addition to golf features, it has many activity tracking features (but you don't have to use those features). But as a golf watch it is very good, very fast and very accurate. Battery life is about the same as the S6 - around 9.5 hours, up from 10 on the Golf - enough for twoโ€ฆ

Do not buy this watch.

I bought this watch after reading many reviews and doing a lot of research. I used it for 3 rounds of golf and it stopped working, wouldn't turn on at all. I sent it back to Revain with no problems and they sent me a new watch, loved the customer service. My new watch arrived after 5 days and I checked if it works, I charged the watch and turned it on, everything was fine. 3 weeks later it rained so didn't get a chance to play golf, I went golf and turned on the watch, lasted 3 holes and offโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Excellent overall
Cons
  • Fair

Terrible hours! Read my entire review

First of all, the watch just turned off and never turned on again. I thought the battery was dead but no. Just passed out after 3 weeks. At first the instructions were one small page. Seriously, for a watch that does so much, it didn't help you with the golf features. Get ready to watch many YouTube videos over and over again to find out. The golf app was painful. Returning to full screen after zooming wasn't easy. Every time I walked onto the court, he was already asking me for my final grade.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • There are nuances

Best watch I have ever owned

Best watch I have ever owned. The main purpose is golf, but I like that I can use it for both running and cycling. No more switching times between golf, running, work and play. This is the only watch I use. I love that you can change watch straps. Mine came with a leather strap but I bought silicone straps, one from Garmin and one from the Revain website (same straps as the Fenix 5). The Garmin strap was $45 and the Revain strap was $10. Same quality but one is from Asia so it takes a littleโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Some flaws

great watch And no, it's not rocket science

The clock worked right away. Synced to Garmin Connect instantly, no problem. Played at 6pm today when I started the clock had 92 percent of the beat and by the end of the round it was 58 percent. All functions including automatic shot tracking and evaluation were used. The watch is highly customizable. You can download different apps and watch faces, and it's very easy. It's essentially a downsized Fenix 5 watch. They're 46mm in diameter, so the perfect size (although many women might not likeโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Nice thing
Cons
  • The cord is shorter than other picks

I played 5 rounds with this watch. The feature that excited me the most was shot tracking. Being able to see the round at the end, see all your shots and where they went was very attractive. The watch only recognizes about 1/3 of my recordings. It's not even about picking up my discs, it's the shot you'll land the hardest and should be the easiest to pick up. Thus, at the end of the round you have holes showing a tracked shot or no shots. Today I went 3 holes, not a single shot was trackedโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Modern
