The Pros:The "hole-view" helps you see hazards that may come into play. Decent battery life- can get about 3 rounds of golf in per charge. Easy to view in all conditions (really bright day or with limited light).
The Cons:Takes too long to get setup- can be annoying. Have to pay annual fee's- hidden expense you may not expect. Can experience some error's and frozen screens throughout your round.
The SkyCaddie SGX is a premium GPS rangefinder designed for easy one-handed operating and precision positioning. Featured is a large 3” LCD display that works well under the sunlight, a 14-hour Lithium-ion battery for all-day use, and an enhanced user interface that has been designed to eliminate errors caused by large fingers and accidental smudges.

The signature benefit to the SGX is its compatibility with SkyCaddie’s SGX SmartClub Technology, which adds “intelligence and a wireless communication link” to every club in the user’s bag. This allows users to track the location of their clubs (where did I leave it?), calculate each club’s performance, and even sync the data with the Internet.
Additional Information
Additional features include a high-performance GPS engine for fast data acquisition, an omni-directional antenna that stays permanently locked onto several satellites, and 30,000+ pre-loaded points from the world’s most renowned golf courses. Unfortunately, the SGX is known to be difficult to use, which truthfully isn’t a surprise considering its multitude of features and complexity.
