Blue Tees Golf Player+ AI-Powered GPS Speaker - Touchscreen Display, 10+ Hour Battery, 40,000+ Courses, Visual & Audible Distances, Hazard Detection, IPX7 Waterproof (Navy)

I recently got my hands on the Blue Tees Golf Player+ GPS Speaker with Touch Screen Display, and it’s quickly become a favorite on the course! This sleek, black, IPX7 waterproof device combines a high-quality Bluetooth speaker with advanced GPS functionality, making it a fantastic all-in-one tool for golfers who want precision and a bit of fun during their rounds. Setting up the Player+ was a breeze—pairing it with my phone via the Blue Tees Game App took just a few minutes, and it automatically recognized the course I was playing, thanks to its preloaded database of over 40,000 courses worldwide. However, mastering all the features, like navigating the touch screen menus and utilizing advanced analytics, does have a bit of a learning curve. It took me a couple of rounds to get comfortable with swiping through screens for hazard distances, drive tracking, and scorekeeping, but once I got the hang of it, the interface felt intuitive and responsive. The glass touchscreen is bright and clear, even in direct sunlight, which is a big plus.The GPS accuracy is impressive—I compared it to my rangefinder and GPS watch, and the Player+ was spot-on, providing precise front, center, and back yardages, as well as hazard distances. The audible distance callouts are a game-changer; with a tap of the action button, I could hear distances without taking my eyes off the course, which helped me stay focused on my shot selection. The dynamic hazard feature also gave me a clear picture of bunkers and water, making course management easier. Beyond its GPS capabilities, the sound quality is outstanding. The “Radical Deep Bass” and 360° audio deliver crisp, powerful sound that’s perfect for playing music without disturbing others on the course. The 10+ hour battery life easily lasted through two full rounds and then some, and I love that it doubles as a power bank with USB-C and USB-A ports to charge my phone. The magnetic strip is incredibly strong, securely attaching to the golf cart even on bumpy terrain, though I’ve heard rare cases of it slipping on extreme jolts, so I’m mindful of placement.My only slight gripe is the subscription for premium features like advanced analytics and hazard screens, which costs $49/year after the included one-year trial. It’s not a dealbreaker, but I wish more features were accessible without the extra cost. Still, for its price, the Player+ offers tremendous value, blending top-tier GPS functionality with premium audio. It’s durable, portable (about 3 pounds), and the IPX7 waterproofing gives me peace of mind in wet conditions—I even tested it after a brief dip in a puddle, and it worked perfectly. Overall, the Blue Tees Player+ is a must-have for golfers who want a reliable, feature-packed device that enhances both strategy and enjoyment on the course. It’s as accurate as my other trusted devices, easy to set up, and a blast to use once you master its features. Highly recommend for anyone looking to elevate their game with style.

Haven't been able to test the GPS functionality just yet, but the speaker sounds pretty good. The major issue is the Battery Level shown on the display. The promotional "review" video on their website and the downloadable PDF User Manual from the product's page (there is no physical copy of the User Manual included with the product, just a QR code telling you to download it instead) show screen captures displaying battery levels of 82% and 73%, respectively. Mine will only show 100% and 75% shortly after slight use. I spoke to their customer service who informed me that the device only displays battery levels of "100%, 75%, 50%, 25%, 10% or LOW" however, their own advertising and documentation clearly conflict with this. 12/8/23 Update: After speaking further with BlueTees' customer support, including a personal follow-up from Management, I've changed my rating to the full 5 stars. Not only has BlueTees explained that the conflicting information was not intentional, but they have literally gone and updated their user manual for the Player+ GPS speaker on the product page of their website. This includes new screenshots of the specific battery levels and an explanation of the exact functionality (see attached image). Most companies don't even reply to emails concerning issues with their products in any real way, but BlueTees has been very receptive of my feedback, and diligent in taking real, observable steps to rectify any issues. This is incredibly rare, and companies who care about maintaining their brand equity are the ones who usually succeed and keep customers coming back (brand loyalty is very tough to achieve these days). Also, after my initial full charge of my Player+ speaker, the battery level is still showing to be at least above 50% after a considerable amount of usage at home. Still haven't been able to get out onto the golf course to test the GPS, but the speaker itself has great sound and is quite convenient for use around the house (shower tunes, amirite?). The onboard display is a great feature--being able to change settings (including brightness level), see the name of the track/artist, view the time of day, pause, skip tracks, restart the song, etc., makes this product stand out among a growing sea of portable Bluetooth speakers. The iPhone app is also very useful in further managing the functionality of the speaker. This is the first product I've purchased from BlueTees, but will probably not be the last. Always good to have a rangefinder on you when your buddy takes the cart OB to find their ball in the sticks.

This speaker has been an absolute game-changer on the course. The sound quality is excellent—loud and clear—and I’d honestly put it in the same class as my JBL Charge 5. Battery life is fantastic, easily lasting through multiple rounds. The Blue Tee’s app is also clutch, especially with the added convenience of displaying on my smartwatch. I previously owned the Bushnell View, but the Blue Tee’s is hands down better in almost every way. The only minor downside I’ve noticed after four full rounds is that the magnet isn’t quite as strong as the Bushnell’s, but all the other pros definitely outweigh that one detail. I would highly recommend this over some of the other golf speakers out there. Great value, great performance, and it makes every round more enjoyable!

The Blue Tees Golf Player+ GPS Speaker is an absolute must-have for any golfer! The touch screen display is super responsive and provides accurate GPS distances, making course navigation effortless. The sound quality is incredible, delivering crisp, clear audio with great bass, perfect for enjoying music while playing. The 10+ hour battery life easily lasts through multiple rounds, and the magnetic mount is super strong, keeping it securely attached to my cart. Setup was simple, and the Bluetooth connectivity is seamless. If you're looking for a premium GPS speaker that enhances both your game and experience, this is it. Highly recommend!

This thing functions amazingly, great sound, very strong magnet and makes score keeping easier than the game of golf

Excelente sonido y útil en el campo, le rinde la batería suficiente los 18 hoyos en el campo

Subscription is 99 bucks for 3 years. So add that to the price still really nice sound and very accurate. Magnetic is strong. Must buy a screen protector. And other 50 bucks for 3. But if you’re spending that money. You want to protect it, in my opinion

Bought as a gift for my husband. He is really happy with it! Great sound. Used at the golf course and was impressed.

Got as a gift for my husband, and loves it! Plus the yards are super accurate! Also has a super strong magnetic so it never falls off the cart!

Magnet sticks well to golf cart. Great that you can control music and golf settings from the screen.
