Garmin Approach X40 GPS Golf Band Review

The Garmin Approach X40 GPS golf band is packed full of innovative features, is pre-loaded with more than 40,000 worldwide golf courses and doubles as a fitness band

What we say: Where many GPS systems are golf-specific, we see a need in our busy lives for much more general lifestyle trackers to relay data on staying healthy. That’s where the X40 steps in.

The Garmin Approach X40 is slim and smart for more style on the course with precise distances to greens, hazards and doglegs on more than 40,000 pre-loaded courses. AutoShot game tracker automatically tracks shots for post- round analysis on Garmin Connect. It comes in four colours and also doubles as an activity tracker including wrist heart rate tech.

It can monitor your performance in lots of different sports from cycling to swimming, but also records how many steps you take each day, along with calories burnt, your heart rate, how you’ve slept and more.
