Garmin Approach S20 GPS Golf Watch

[Music] Oh guys my crossword here out on the golf course because we're trying today Garmin s 20 watch so the team at golf online have sent me this down want me to test it so we're going to take it on the course here and see what it does it's a GPS unit it's gonna count my score for me it knows where I am I literally turned it on knew what golf course I was that he gave me a list of two or three and I just selected the top one which was the rock which was the Warren which is where I am it then asked me if it wanted to keep count for me which I said yes now this one isn't touchscreen so that threw me at the star I wanted it to I just like touching the screen I'm so conditioned these days the touching the screen then it did feel funny that I couldn't do that from Garmin do have ones that you can touch the screen are and I guess this one might be just a different price point which is they're not giving you that technology it's live counting now the yardage as I walk it's tracking me basically I like that I like that I can get my club ready as I'm walking up certainly get an idea for the distance as I go and you start actually wearing a watch unit which is different to my watch is something that I do struggle with with these devices absolutely nothing stopping you you wearing it as a watch day in day out sick that goes keep the time and does it connects to my smartphone I can get notifications through it so it can allow me to do everything I need it to do if I want it to so now we're really talking about kind of a fashion thing out way so ask me how many shots either it hits after each half not sure if it's using audio or vibration but it knows how many times I've hit it and it's right every time again I try to touch the screen but it's not touchscreen it's literally clicking a button but you get around that pretty simply you know your head will adjust and it's very easy to use really so the Galman s20 it counts my scores I like that it counts me down as I walk I like that you can even get it plugged into your phone and if you count your steps it becomes almost like a Fitbit kind of idea I like all that front middle back yardage is so easy just the glance down and get your yardage quick it's simple it's easy and it's fast I'm not a massive fan of how the watch looks it does feel a bit plasticky on my arm but I think for the price point if you want just that simple function function of distance it's gonna tick those boxes you

so this is the Garmin s 20 the golf watch and as you probably know government has a lot of golf watches but this is kind of new at this moment don't know when you see this video it's in black and white it does not have touchscreen like some comments do have it does not have a wrist part weight measurement but it does have all the cool go features so if you like golf then it's a it's quite nice and although it's not in color it's very good beautiful better than this view for active HR in my opinion so that's nice but some people like to color screen and this doesn't have the color screen and it doesn't have a map like for example the Garmin epics or the more expensive approach so you can see I'm in the goal function so you can see the first one it's a Power free oh the second one puffy and you see all the distances they all power fee you can see the actual size so it said they are all in the memory and the first time I open the package it was just there so the golf yacht in my neighborhood and also the second one and the third one they were just delivered to me like that I didn't need to upload them a selfie so it's it's really easy to use and that's very important in my opinion so I didn't use the manuals so if you push this button you can just change the flag touch so you can just put like this so no touch between just use these buttons this is the back button and then you can keep score of course I'll go back to do the measure the shot and watching for the camera so that's why it's a little difficult so last field swing to begin measurement so that's that function the two symbol you you do have to use the two swing yeah this is okay it's kinda difficult to look food for the camera so it's searching for the true swing gear so let's go back so Guillemette salad it means a mileage measurement like you measured the distance and the steps of course because it's also an activity tracker and so now we have sent them all so that's it for this for the rest you see here all kind of data like sunrise Sun going down the date of course at time did a seder the steps it's now zero you can set your own goal you can measure it with Garmin Connect it's it's a better app than it used to be a couple of years ago but I don't think it's the best app in the world but and no brand of watches has the best app in my opinion because the best app is like Strava or a run keeper or Auto app cell just more yeah they're all focused on the app and for for garment and that the Polar's in the Tom Thomson the meals the app is also nice but not the main thing but jawbone does a good thing with the app in my opinion so the steps so is the goal seven point five thousand so it's kind of low normally I set it a little higher the mileage calories burned and we are back oh those are the function of the approach as 20 I think it's quite nice it's not that expensive it's good readable it's with the four buttons quite big button so you can make a lot of mistakes with that it doesn't have the optical heart rate measurement unit what it does have is already box like really good fixation on the wrist either kind of a small wrist and it fits just great it's not like the old garments I yeah I used I think almost all garments the last years and so it is quite it feels very better just the first time you just wear it it's feels like just normal it looks also kind of normal that's yeah I like that but some people would like it in color or a more like metal thing so yeah that's just really up to you of course so I don't really have an opinion on that so approach as twenty so thanks for watching hope you liked it hope you yeah you can use it for your goal I think it's er it's quite nice it works quite good will while you are playing golf and for the daily activity tracking and now see you perhaps in the next video so thanks for watching hope you waited a little fun

so the government approach 20 now we'll wait for the clocks to stop so there you go so the approach s 20 just taking a first look at it I will compare it 50 other governments like the fee for active and real sport watches of government so I will compare them while sporting and golfing of course so how does this work so that's your first answer it doesn't have touchscreen like ah this does have it's also cheap and v-vector that's not real comparison but it's good to know that some garments do actually have touchscreen and it works quite nice if you're not too sweaty so I'm not really let's put this to just yards 24 hours left is that sorry for that now it's seeking the GPS so we can just see how quick it is so it's also just the first good test how quick it is so there it is that is quite quite fast so the options and just let me just push this one sorry for the shaking and but it's kind of windy it's also raining as you can see and there we see the first golf course it's Burke golf it's here it's new to my home at the half-light in then boss if you know that but the fat lie it's a little bit further so it's it's real it's nice you can see them just as the closest one first and then who wants more some further away so it's quite cool so just take a look at this one now it's loading the track of course you want to keep scores and there we are for the first one cell it's yeah so this back button as you can see okay button so I will go use it and then make it in that breathe a bit is just the first quick peek it's it's in black and whites not color it's not touchscreen as I mentioned but it looks good it looks very sharp also it's quite bright outside although it's little raining and I think it will be readable in the sunlight like the other garments and just put it next to the visual active HRO real little comparison in looks we have a little comparison it's already shaped to the arm so it's already a little around I think the band looks better than the usual active HR and let me just put on a small activity tracker here you can see the smallest one compared to the garment and I have a really small wrist so I think it's not too big on my wrist it's s Vick it's the fever active HR so that's it for now and I will go testing it and make and in the preview and I will put it on this YouTube channel so for now a good first impression I have to test it more further and help you at some fearsome use of this video and waited a little fun bye
