Great Upgrade

I have had the S70 for about 3 weeks now and it is great. Upgraded from the S62. Battery life is a game changer, the graphics are clearer, and the function are wonderful. If you are on the fence about buying it, don't wait.

Great Watch

I have owned this new version for about four weeks and I absolutely love it. I had the older 62 model and appreciate the extra battery and display resolution. This is now my favorite everyday watch. -Sam

There's Things I Liked Better About The S62

I've had the S62 for the past couple of years. There's things that I like about the S70, for sure. But I really don't like the one feature about the S70 (I think the S62 was better). When I've completed a hole, the S62 had you enter the number of strokes, number of putts, and number of penalty strokes. The S70 has added another screen to indicate if I'd hit the fairway or missed to the left or right. I don't like this extra screen on the S70. I own the CT10 sensors so I already get this information logged automatically. This seems like a waste of time to have to enter this information each time I've finished a hole. If there's a way to disable this screen then I'd be all over that.

Some Positive And Some Negative

I like the Find my phone option. Don’t like the scoring process. When I get a text on my phone I don’t on my watch even though the setting is accurate. I prefer my old S62 but they discontinued it.

Looks Great...but Lacking Functionality

I was excited to use this product to track my shots and for the virtual caddie feature. This feature has you create your exact bag of clubs in the app. So when you swing your club, it will ask you what you used and you should be able to select your clubs, versus the default every club that is in there. This function has never worked for me, and has resulted in a number of troubleshooting sessions with support and even a replacement device which is still having the same issues. The issue is that when I swing my 7 wood and the default clubs show up instead of mine, I am unable to select the correct wood. That means that the watch will always suggest an incorrect club for me based on my driving history. Additionally the watch has struggled to find courses that im playing even though they are extremely popular and established courses. Often time the watch will reset the map the moment I begin to play a course which means I have to restart the round. Oh and dont get me started on the software upgrade process. It is ridiculously complicated in an era of smart wearables. Who still uses a cable to upgrade software? Garmin does.
