Quick Summary
The GOLFBUDDY Voice 3S+ is a clip-on talking golf GPS rangefinder that gives audio distances to the front, centre and back of the green. It also includes slope on/off control, so the same device can be used with or without slope-adjusted distances.
This blue version is designed as a hands-free golf GPS with a compact mono LCD, clip-on mounting and preloaded course data. It is a practical choice for buyers who want spoken yardage rather than a screen-only unit.

What to Compare Before Buying
- Display and audio style: This model uses spoken distances and a compact mono LCD. Compare that with whether you prefer audio guidance, screen-based reading or both.
- Course coverage: The unit comes with 40,000+ preloaded courses. Check that your usual course is likely to be covered.
- Battery life: Up to 18 hours per charge is stated. Compare that with the length of your normal rounds and how often you want to recharge.
- Mounting style: It clips to a cap, collar or bag. Make sure that clip format suits how you want to carry it.
- Slope use: Slope can be switched on for practice and off for tournaments. Check whether that matches how you intend to use it.
What Else You May Need
The unit charges with the included Micro USB cable and uses the GB Manager desktop software for optional course and firmware updates on Windows or Mac. If you want to update it, you will need a compatible computer and USB connection.
Before You Decide
Confirm that you want a clip-on talking golf GPS rather than a laser-style rangefinder. Check the blue finish, the slope on/off feature, and whether the 40,000+ preloaded courses and 18-hour battery figure fit the way you play.
For first use, charge it fully and let it acquire satellites outdoors with a clear view of the sky before your round.
