The ifrothgolf review

A compact waterproof Bluetooth speaker with golf GPS built in, reading out distances at the press of a button while playing your music.

What's great

Golf Monthly described it as delivering near faultlessly on the brief, and it does. Sound quality is impressively clear and full for something this small, carrying nicely around a tee box without bleeding across the course. The BITE magnet sticks it to any trolley or buggy frame instantly, the carabiner sorts bag carriers, and IPX7 waterproofing means British weather is a non-issue. The audible distance feature works well once the app is set up, and the price is reasonable for a speaker this good even before the golf tricks.

Worth knowing

GPS callouts need your phone nearby with the app running, so it is not standalone like the bigger Wingman models. Ten hours of battery is fine but the original Wingman lasts longer. And be honest with yourself about course etiquette, because nobody wants your playlist on a quiet Sunday medal.

The verdict

If music on the course is your thing, this is the one to buy. Great speaker first, golf gadget second.
