The subscription plans are awful. You’ll never actually own the device as long as you have to pay a subscription fee to get all the features. You’re basically renting it after you pay full price to buy it.

[@jefffrye1398]

@@rvoykin you don’t have to have a subscription to work on your game. Only if you want to play video golf sim.

[@TherealNJRich]

@@jefffrye1398Though that is a fact, the other fact is that is it’s 3k unit cost. It needs to have at least some courses to play as a free version. It looks like a good monitor, however after forking out for the unit - it’s a bit greedy to ask for a costly subscription. Were it 500 cheaper and the subscription 100 per year it would become more appealing

Great videos. Try playing with your feet closer together; you may have better rotation which should increase head speed and distance.

Would be great to see head-to-head versus Trackman or GC Quad or both.

There can’t be much to these devices for them to cost that much! im gonna wait for Costco to come out with one of these super duper devices like that for under $500.

[@Guythatsometimescomments]

Probably gonna wait a while. High speed camera lenses aren't cheap. Ultimately, yes, the prices will go down over time -- but it will take years. Personally I wanted to enjoy having a sim for those years instead of waiting, so the price is well worth it.

[@bassmasta9117]

It doesn't make sense to me how a Rapsodo MLM 2 Pro or a Garmin R10 is in the $500-700 range but these units are $3,000+ . I don't believe there is thousands of dollars more worth of technology in them.

[@razor7241]

@@bassmasta9117If I’m not mistaken the two launch monitors you mentioned are radar devices while launch monitors like the Eunicor and GC3 are camera based and should much more accurate.

[@soupra22]

Try a trackman or gc quad. You get what you pay for though.

[@Co-Monad]

@@bassmasta9117have you used or owned a premium launch monitor? I’ve owned the Rapsodo MLM2Pro, used Garmin, Mevo+, and SkyTrac. Now I own and use the Foresight GC3. The GC3 with ball and club data and its hands down more accurate and zero effort to set up. The budget friendly options are great but come with some rather large trade offs. Firstly, they are extremely sensitive to their environment. Secondly, can be annoying for anyone that doesn’t have a permanent setup. Lastly, most budget options can’t do indoor and outdoor well/accurately. There’s a reason pros aren’t walking around with a budget friendly gold simulator or why club fitters don’t use them. With that being said, an expensive option may not be right for a lot of folks and that’s okay. I’d rather have the most accurate and seamless option in my budget that’s built for game improvement first verses entertainment or casual users.

[@MortenRyberg]

Any device with a forced subscription to access features that are already on the device and not part of further development should be illegal!

Id like to see more about the unit. Discuss what you get without subscription. Is the unit totally unlocked without subscription. Thanks

[@garyhovey9305]

Looking great Gabe! So happy to see that you’re treating yourself well 👍🏻 have you considered trying to get higher launch angles with your driver? 101 mph should give you 273 total yards (see Ian Frasier swing speed multiplied by 2.7). You cool be picking up 25 yards!

[@LetsPlayThru]

That would be nice for sure

[@MrLuigiFercotti]

2.7 x is pie in the sky.

[@claytonpetree527]

Today they added REFINE to the "pro" package - that's the one you need to buy to get the 3rd party connector to run GSPro, for example. So unless you are only gonna do range work, that's some real value added. I downloaded and will try it out tomorrow. Unfortunately, for 4:3 screens, it only will run at 1024x768 which is a bummer. GSPro runs at whatever resolution (so for 4:3, I'm running 1080x1440). Anyhoo, lots of cool stuff to check out. I have the standard Eye Mini.

[@LetsPlayThru]

Saw that too. Thats great news!

[@underworldevents265]

Looks very interesting! Great video, thanks. I have been looking at the skytrak+ because of the affordable E6 connect package and because you don't need to put the stickers on the clubfaces. Is that absolutely necessary with the Uneekor?

[@jefffrye1398]

It was said that you need the Eye Mini to get the impact location, but I don’t believe that is correct. I think the Eye Mini and how Eye Mini Lite have the same exact data points. Maybe the XO has impact position.

[@davidmaxfieldgolf]

Looks like a great unit and great video as always mate. Can you do a review vs ST+?

Great video Gabe! Would you mind sharing the full PC specs you are using? Apparently I need to upgrade mine because the shot video I get when hitting balls is choppy and lags - definitely not the fault of the Eye Mini Lite.

[@LetsPlayThru]

The graphics card is going to be the main piece. Mine is a 3060 TI.

[@sellnbrew1]

Hi Gabe. Just a clarification, I have the Eye Mini and it does not read club impact location.

[@jgfarrington]

I bought one and returned it. When I lined it up with my Foresight device, it was accurate up to 150 yards carry. Longer shots were hit and miss. Some were spot on, but too many were one or two club lengths short. That makes a real difference when playing online tournaments. I like what Uneekor is trying to achieve here, but I don't believe this device is market ready. I am a single figure player with my own studio.

[@TC.....]

I also bought one and kept it. When i line it up with my trackman, it was accurate within 1 percent! An absolute keeper!

[@SoCalMisfit712]

@@Vermonstered really makes no sense to own more than one. If you find one that works better than the one you have, I think you would replace it. To have 3 different launchers that show you 3 different things kind of defeats the purpose. And the trackman should be far superior to this unit.

[@toddc3988]

As someone new to the idea of simulators, are there any that don't require subscriptions? Or is that a common thing that you just can't get away from? Cuz that really drags down the possibility for some of us to grab one of these.

[@LetsPlayThru]

Most do. Mevo+ would be the almost lone exception, though you’ll still likely need a subscription to a third party to get the courses to play. Their Limited Edition comes with a lifetime subscription to E6 with some courses, but there is a higher upfront cost too.

[@swrveGaming]

I don’t know how good you are but seems kinda off that those 54 degree shots all basically gave you the exact same flight and shot, other than 3-6 yards carry it was basically the same shot..

[@dustinagan2175]

So looking at the packages noticed an entry for “sessions.” What exactly is a “session?” For the no cost option, there are only 15 “sessions” and for the $200/yr subscription only 100. Does this mean that after paying $2750 for a piece of hardware, I can only use it 15 times before it becomes an expensive paperweight? Or is a “session” something else other than just regular use?

[@LetsPlayThru]

Think of it as a save file. If you want to go back and review past numbers, there is a limit for some reason. But no, it def does not brick it.

Noob Question: What setup do you have computer spec wise or are you using an iPad to link the connection to the projector?

Most of these are going to require a gaming PC. Mine is running Windows 10 and a 3060Ti graphics card.

[@cmd2439]

No iPad compatibility with the EML. that’s part of the “lite” price point. The EML has to be wired to a PC Ethernet port or via the USB Ethernet dongle they provide.

Hi, my room is 103 Inches high from floor to ceiling. Is that enough for a golf sim set up?

I think that may be a little too low. You could maybe get away with irons only, but even still, I wouldn’t recommend it. Generally speaking you want 10’ of clearance.

[@cyberbogart]

@@LetsPlayThru Thanks for the reply and more power to your channel. Great reviews man, really great.

[@user-rw3pf4qn9q]

The cost of ownership is way too expensive! I’m fine with paying the GSPro $250 per year, but then $400 per year just to fully use the unit. Mevo+ is the way to go, everything is 1 time fees and you can take it to the range!

[@andrewbock1575]

You can fully use the unit for free with the view software. To get access to gspro you only need the $200/year subscription, lets be real, cancel one streaming service you dont use and there's your 200 bucks for the year lol. Also the em/eml, imo, is a considerable step above the mevo+. Not cost-wise, but if you're concerned about accuracy and not having no-reads frequently throughout your round. I have used both the eye mini and the mevo+ extensively for over a year each, and I would pay $2750 + $200/year over a mevo+ and pro package a hundred times over. Lastly I have never had any desire to take my eye mini to the range, I mean, why pay for a bucket of balls when I have all the free balls I could want to hit in my garage with all the data provided?

[@CharlesKeller]

Inside only with this device, correct?

[@LetsPlayThru]

Yes, I wouldn’t recommend taking it outdoors. That’s where the BLP and regular Eye Mini would fare better. This saves money but indoor only is one main trade off.

Ok people, the reason these camera based devices are so expensive is because they use expensive high fram rate cameras. Usually two of them. They likely won't be under 1k for a retail device any time soon. There is at least one active potentially open source project I am aware of that claims $300 worth of parts, but he currently hasn't done a beta release and has filed for patents to "keep his options open". If that guys project is successful and actually gets released open source, I'll build one. Otherwise hell no, it's simply not worth the price of entry.

I'm curious if someone could come up with an app for the Iphone. They are equipped with multiple cameras and LIDAR. Seems that someone that knew what they were doing could write software that would make an iphone into a rudimentary camera based launch monitor.

An app like you’ve described exists now - called GolfBoy. I just demoed it while I was in Japan. Review coming in about 2 weeks. It’s pretty cool for sure, but as Jefferson stated above, the tech in units like Eye Mini Lite is extremely powerful and that accuracy comes at a price.
