What independent testing reveals
Golf Monthly found the S62 enjoyable and intuitive over multiple rounds, with useful hazard information and reliable yardages alongside its laser comparisons. PinPointer also helped when the green was out of sight. The maps looked less vivid than the team hoped, so assess the screen if visibility is a priority.

Read the detailed findings and test limitations
Setup and touchscreen navigation worked smoothly. Virtual Caddie required a history of tracked rounds, and app maps did not reflect some course changes during the test. That historical observation does not establish the state of today’s mapping.
The report describes the model and software available during its original test. Check the version, current software access and supplied equipment before buying; historical prices are not current purchase terms.
The 30-second verdict
Discontinued and replaced by the Garmin Approach S70. The S70 adds a much brighter AMOLED screen in two sizes.
