Nice Gadget!
on December 12, 2022
Posted by: FindMyDistance
I bought this few weeks ago and loving it. Reason for 4 stars is for short battery life. After 3 rounds, I have to recharge it; lucky me cart has USB port.

Disappointed
on December 12, 2022

This rangefinder has many nice features. However, the view is grainy which I found annoying so I returned it.

Lots of features! Can't use any other rangefinder
on January 8, 2023

I got the Z82 as a gift from my girlfriend for Christmas and I'm extremely pleased after playing 5 rounds of golf. The accuracy of the distances combined with the mini display has really changed how I approach shots. I'm particularly impressed with the auto marking of harazards on the hole.
I wish the battery life was better but no real complaints!

Like the range finder AND GPS feature combined
on January 12, 2023

Works as advertised. Easy to scope flags and hazards and see both on the same screen with GPS view & data.

Love the Added Features over the Z80
on March 8, 2023
Posted by: Danbo
I bought this two weeks ago after the connector on my Z80 went bad and I could no longer charge and update it. Adding the buzz feature when it latches onto the flag was a great feature.

More than Enough
on March 26, 2023
Posted by: Flickstick
The hole display is fantastic. The hazard locations. The scoring on the app seems a bit much. The green layout for the additional money doesn't seem to add value along with the find my device feature. A magnet would be helpful but certainly not a requirement. The device if used as a normal range finder will last far more than 1 round of golf. Initially I was using on the tee box of a par 5 to view hazards. Now I use it just the same as another other range finder. This stays in standby mode more than anything. Under my current usage I would have just assumed purchasing a battery operated device and not a charging required device. Still no regrets and love the hole display and all the features this product offers.

Excellent rangefinder
on April 15, 2023

I've had the rangefinder for a year and love it. It shows all the information you need to know for a great approach shot. I like the combination of GPS and laser ranging to give you accurate distances to the pin and surrounding hazards. Wind speed indication is an added bonus
