S72 without subscription

PawelRed

If you don't decide to buy subscription plan what are advantage to use S72 over S70 ?

I spotted  following things:-

- Flashlight - which is not useful at golf course at all.

- Drive Range features - seems like a toy rather than reliable tool.

- pulsrate graphs during golf round - another nonsense, besides S70 has also puls rate monitor

- titanium bazel and sapphire glass - another useless improvement , at least in golfing

- textile strap - known from S50.  Nice, but is it improvement ? Everybody can buy similar strap at 20$ and mount it in S70

- extended shot analyses - how is it related to new watch model ? 

Three and half years of waiting for new model !  For me it is a big disappointment.  It looks like Garmin don't care of Approach line . Instead they incorporate all the same golf features in more expensive Fenix line.

    I'll agree the S72 isn't a big change. If it was it would be the S80, which we might see in 3 years.

    The swing analysis is new, seems like it could be very good data. Garmin said it won't come to the S70 as the S72 has the new hardware to capture all the motion data.

    That seems like it could be great data and a good new feature. Same goes for the driving range swing analysis.

    I'm not hating the S72, but for now not liking enough to pick one up. I'll wait for reviews and feedback from users. Might be lots of bugs.
