    • Our take on the Garmin Approach S50 Golf GPS Smartwatch

    The Approach S50 is Garmin's mid-range golf watch with a 1.2-inch AMOLED touchscreen, a 43mm aluminum case and full-color course maps. It pairs golf features like green contours, PlaysLike distances and a virtual caddie with everyday health tracking: heart rate, sleep, steps and phone notifications. It sits between the simpler S44 and the premium S70, so it suits golfers who want mapping and a caddie without paying for the S70's extra sensors and training metrics. Reviewers like the bright screen and light fit; some note the smaller screen and lack of a barometric altimeter compared with pricier models.

    Questions and answers

    Is the Approach S50 worth it over the S44?
    The S50 adds a color AMOLED touchscreen, full course maps and a virtual caddie. The S44 is simpler and distance-focused, so the S50 suits golfers who want mapping.

    No. Elevation and PlaysLike distances are calculated from GPS data rather than a barometric sensor.

    Yes. It tracks heart rate, sleep, steps and calories, shows phone notifications and has a 5 ATM water rating.
    What is in the box?
    The watch, a charging cable and documentation. Courses are downloaded through the Garmin Golf app.
