Great device to help anyone understand their game better, nice tools to help breakdown what you need to work on.

So so …

Missing quite a few clubs in the club selector section (Yes, I do have a seven hybrid and also a seven wood). Also I find that the carry distance is consistently 10 yards or more short... just put +10 in the code for driver and you’ll be consistently closer.
It would be nice to review more information on the device itself instead of always requiring your phone.

Screen issues

I really liked this G82 but sent it back to the store I purchased it from for a refund. Took it to the driving range and when I was using the the launch monitor feature in the sun it started getting lines through the screen. When I got home and turned it back on the lines were gone so I took it back outside and put it in the sun. Less than 10 minutes later I checked and the lines were back.

Great product, works as advertised

Bought this a few weeks ago and have only used it at the driving range. I really wanted to know my swing speed as I practiced as well as other data that could show if I was being consistent with my swings. The unit works as advertised! Swing speed, ball speed, distances (carry and total) are all calculated for each swing. Each of my clubs is currently tracked using the CT-10 sensors. The data transfers immediately to the Garmin golf app for review after the session. The only issue I've had is the occasional freezing of the unit when switching clubs which happens once or twice during a driving range session. It pauses for a bit, then gets back to the session. I've never lost the data though, which is good. If I could change one thing it would be the bulkiness of the product. It's big but rugged - I doubt it would break if it feel out of your bag or cart. Would buy again.
