“Have had problems uploading rounds, taking up to 45 mins. Similar rounds uploaded in less than 1 min. Also having problems connecting watch to app. Great when it works but frustrating when it doesn't.”

“This is a great product that makes a lot of great information accessible. It has been great to see all the information about my golf game in easy to digest graphs. There have been a couple of bugs trying to use the watch at the actual golf course or keeping it connected to my phone, but with a little bit of patience I've been able to work through those. The information is worth working for.”

“The X5 watch gives good accurate on course data to hazards and layups etc. don't really use the pin location function as this seems a bit of a faff on the course. Recent upgrades to firmware have made the watch more responsive and easier to get to things like adding a penalty shot. The tracking of shots with the tags is pretty accurate and recent upgrade that records shots as you go is better than manual entry. If you like tracking your stats and understanding how you compare against your peers this is the watch for you.”

“I'm a data junky. I love data. Sometimes I even use that data. The good: Data is good, tracking is pretty solid. The great: Customer service is OUTSTANDING. If you find a problem with course mapping or course data, Bob's your uncle with these folks. The not so great: When wet the touch screen is finicky at best. When dry it can be touchy. The tough to stomach: The battery; I occasionally play 36 holes in a day, you might get 27 holes with a fresh charge, will NOT get 36. Battery life is worse that an iPhone 4 after 2 years of updates.”

“I have been using Shotscope for years with the V3 watch and love it. X5 was a new product that sounded great. Ordered it under a special purchase, did have issues that support worked to help me. They gave me a new watch and i have had no issues whatsoever. Actually, I her been so impressed as to accurate the info is that i have almost no corrections to do when downloaded. I am actually impressed as to how the watch corrects itself when going to the wrong hole. I would not go back to anything else. Great Job Shotscope !!”

“Bought this when it came out, as an addition to the 2 V3s I already own. Very high quality look. The initial firmware required an impossible (for me) complete turn of the crown to unlock the screen so I made the default screen unlocked. Unfortunately, this resulted in the screen responding to all sorts of random inputs, many of which I didn't think I initiated. This caused numerous annoyances. The recent firmware update allows me to have the screen unlocked and use a long press to unlock it, which is much more user friendly. The active score keeping function is nifty.”

“I previously had the V3 and upgraded. Initially the X5 had some issues but were quickly remedied with firmware update. If I forget to take the watch to golf I usually have a bad round as the front and back of tee distances are fantastic and accurate. Excellent watch, I cannot fault.”
