The smart stuff doesn't help very much. Would have been better off getting a simpler model that just tells front, middle, back, or get the s70. This model requires a subscription to get the green slopes that I wanted. It came with a cheap wristband and charging cable. On the plus side the Garmin support was good. They sent me a better wrist band and charging cable that had a standard USB connection for free.

Crashes during round all the time
on June 5, 2025

S50 crashes during golf round every time, several times actually in one round. The map shots/distance also cannot be saved. I ended up able to save the map shots only 1-2 holes per round. I did update the watch until there is no update available and also update maps with Gamin shop assistant, and reset / factory reset the watch as well. It still crashed during my last golf round two days ago.

I bought this a month ago and love it! Exactly what I was looking for. Great for running, even better for golf! I’d purchase this again.

The Watch delivers

I’ve had the watch for a month. It does everything I had hoped for. Some of the golf features are not really intuitive and it has a learning curve.
Overall, it’s been a good purchase

Complicated

I bought this watch about a month ago and have worn or used it on several occasions.
This watch is too complicated with more features I can use.

I bought the watch a couple weeks ago and is very easy to use and doesn't require much effort. I do think it's helping my game. Also like the health features. I had an Apple Watch and I like this much better.

I received this for my birthday and I absolutely love it. As an avid golfer I appreciate it can locate the course via gps and keep a scorecard . It takes the guess work out of how far I am away from the pin.
