Great product for sports and portable GPS devices

I bought this for my partner and couldn't find a better gift! He went golfing with my mom and they compared each other's watches and this was the best of the two! Worth the money, very easy to use and accurate.

Pros
  • Special offer
Cons
  • Long wait

So far so good: GPS, viewfinder and accessories

The watch was used for three laps. So far, so good. It is easy. Feel good at your own risk. Having course pictures is a great help. Using phone apps is distracting. Managing my rounds website is a big plus. My other watches are now for sale on Facebook Marketplace.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Minor imperfections

The connection of the charging cable to the watch is very bad.

The charging cable is attached to the watch with a tiny magnet. It turns off easily at the slightest movement or movement. Wow. Good luck charging this thing anywhere but at home. Maybe I'm sleeping, but most vehicles come with charging cables, but not if the other end is left unplugged. YES, REALLY!

Pros
  • Ease of use
Cons
  • Some bugs

Amazing and accurate

Works great. High visibility even in the sun. It also seems very accurate. Syncing with their app is very fast, especially over Wi-Fi. It also looks good worn as a regular watch when not playing golf. The only downside for me is called "smart watch", it doesn't read texts, email notifications etc from your phone. Hopefully Skycaddy can do an update to accommodate this.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Embarrassing

Great product - if you can read the screen

I bought this product to use as a golf course GPS and to replace a Garmin product. This is a really great product but I couldn't read it, especially with polarized sunglasses on. I also found it difficult to interact with onscreen functions due to the size. I ended up with a larger portable SkyCaddie which is a great complement to the GPS I use on the course. Watch and PDA functions are similar if not identical. The question is which size is better.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Unusable features

Can't update!

Took me hours to get this working with the computer interface. Then I realized that the features I wanted weren't included in the service I signed up for. I should have upgraded, but no, I can't, even though it says so. So I bit the bullet and paid another $40 a year to get a new maintenance program. Then I tried to update them. Download new drivers and software. Then I tried to update. No, it won't work. Tried on another computer. nope The guide requires a college degree in computer science…

Pros
  • always liked
Cons
  • unreliable

The best GPS on the market, worth the money.

I have been using Skycaddie GPS devices for over twenty years. My wife bought me a competitor's GPS a few years ago. Used it for a couple of weeks and went back to my Skycaddy. Last year I bought an SX 500 with excellent GPS but a few months ago someone stole it from my shopping cart while I was in the store, I immediately contacted Skycaddy and turned it off. too small could not read the information, it would be difficult to swing the watch on the wrist, and so on. size on my swing. I like it.

Pros
  • GPS for sports and portable devices
Cons
  • Hard to say

Very good gps watch for golf.

I have used SkyCaddie products for many years. I recently lost/stole a larger SkyCaddie GPS device. I liked it. I decided to replace it with a GPS watch. Compared to more expensive GARMIN watches, SKYCADDIE had similar features. The SKYCADDIE GPS watch has the following features that I like: 1. Clear, bright, high-quality screen2. Show each hole on the tee, then zoom in to show greens and sand traps once I'm within 100 yards.3. Tracks fairway strikes, GIRs, strikes, then syncs scores and data…

Pros
  • GPS, finder and accessories
Cons
  • I will say nothing

Ok but not great!

Very good golf GPS watch, not ideal as a smartwatch. The Lx5 has a bright, easy to read dial and offers lots of great hole and course information. It's like owning one of the SkyCaddy portable golf devices, but on your wrist. Easy to use and manage screens. It pairs easily with the Skycaddy 360 app. For golf alone it may be the most accurate and best on the market. It counts steps and displays your average heart rate on a separate screen. At this point, the Lx5 may not be a true smart/fitness…

Pros
  • Golf course GPS devices
Cons
