I just ordered the X5 Shot Scope stealth black today.... moving away from Garmin S62 watch which has been great but it only picks up approx 80% of the shots (I didn't mind not knowing the specific club because I could always recall what I hit and knowing those total distances has been very helpful). I tried Arccos sensors a while back and it seemed like they still needed to iron out a few things - I found myself paying waaaay too much attn to Arccos vs Golf.
The X5 was a borderline impulse purchase but that front screen showing hole/par, current score along with second screen/hazard distances front & back was enough to see that they put a lot of thought into this + at $299 including sensors and no ongoing subscription it seemed like a steal! The one thing I love about the Garmin S62 is the battery life as I get full week plus of regular watch usage and can get at least 2 rounds of golf on the watch before recharge.
From what I can see the X5 watch can get at least 2 rounds of golf in but can anyone comment on how many days of battery life they get with no golf? I would imagine that is got to be close to a week (that's the assumption that I made when I bought this AM - they got me with their email about certain colors already running out of stock). Either way the battery life has to crush the apple watch so I'll be fine with it!
