14 DAY TRIAL // Given the huge popularity enjoyed by golf in many countries from all over the world, it should come as no surprise that more and more accessories targeting specifically golf players have started to make their way onto the market, one of the latest we've come across being the Sonocaddie V500 device. Manufactured by South-African company iPlayGPS, the Sonocaddie V500 provides plenty of features golf players will certainly find attractive, such as the fact that it comes pre-loaded with all the available mapped courses in a certain country, indicates the user's position on the course and also reveals the distance to the closest targets. Another interesting function is the Digital Scorecard and Game Analysis, since the Sonocaddie will automatically calculate the total score with the simple touch of a button, and at the end of eighteen, Sonocaddie will present a summary of your round complete with statistics and the score. Additionally, the Sonocaddie can record locations for each shot right on the screen, and can automatically trace waypoints during the round, with the information being stored to Sonocaddie so you may review the round and each shot at a later date. Now that we've talked a bit about the features the Sonocaddie provides, it's about time to check out its specs, starting with the 3-inch (240 x 400 Pix) High-Resolution Touchscreen Color LCD display w/ Backlight, that enables users to easily view and also control the device in just about any conditions. Plus, the V500 can store up to 30,000 golf courses and 100 scorecards, is powered by a rechargeable battery that can last for ip to 12 hours and measures 116 x 57 x 20mm (4.6" x 2.3" x 0.8") inches, at an overall weight of around 129g (4.57 oz). Pricing for the Sonocaddie V500 has been set at roughly 499.00 South-African Rands, which translates into somewhere around 70 US dollars (which is a surprisingly low price point, all things considered).
