I like the Sonocaddie, but the 5 way button is very hard to use. You must advance each hole manually and the “enter” button (center button on the 5 way) is very hard to press – you usually hit the other buttons – very fustrating and I don’t have fat fingers either. The enter button broke after about 20 rounds – now I am rtrying to get it repaired.

I bought a Sonocaddie V300 and had a lot of issues with the unit from day one. I made numerous telephone calls to the company. They had me doing various resets on the unit. They eventually ask me to send the unit to them. It came back with the same issues. I ask them to upgrade the unit to the new V500 and I would pay the difference between the V500 and what I paid for the V300, they refuse to do so. The unit was still in warranty about a month to two months old. They had me return the unit a second time and it was replaced. It has worked OK since but it has a lot of mapping error and inaccuracies on some courses. It also does not always auto hole advance as advertised. I point out the problem with the auto hole advance and they simply say it is a problem with the V300 software. I once again ask them if I can trade up and pay the difference for the V500 the answer was no. I felt very disappointed especially since I had gotten rid of my Golf Buddy so as to purchase the Sonocaddie

Bought mine in May 2009. In July 2010, it started defaulting to the home screen, and shutting off. Now it also dumps my score card.
Sonocaddie says it’s $164 if it can be fixed or replaced. Suggest I spend more and upgrade, but why would I upgrade when their product barely lasted out the warranty?
I won’t.
Bad yardages, insufficient courses, unreliable.
…how I feel: Disappointed.
