See your simulator room before you buy.
Put in your room and your height. The drawing follows as you type: your swing, the screen, the launch monitor and the projector, to scale, checked against what their makers publish.
Works, with one spot under guidance.

Honest verdicts, the real tradeoffs and the price math, for the matchups that come up most.
SkyTrak ST MAX vs Square Golf Omni
Square Golf Omni is about $100 cheaper up front, about $1,500 cheaper over five years with course play, and arguably better hardware. SkyTrak ST MAX wins on software polish and ecosystem maturity.

Approach R50 vs Square Golf Omni
The Square Golf Omni costs $3,401 less and reads a similar club set — both lean on club stickers, and the Omni estimates the face angle the R50 measures; the Garmin R50's premium buys its built-in 10-inch touchscreen and standalone play — no PC, no setup — which is the whole point for some households and wasted for anyone who will run GSPro on a big screen anyway.

Square Golf Omni vs EYE MINI Lite
The Square Golf Omni is $400 cheaper at list ($100 while the EYE MINI Lite's $1,699 sale lasts), runs from an iPad, phone or PC, and fits a room 4 to 6 ft shallower. The EYE MINI Lite is a wired indoor rig: it needs a Windows PC at Uneekor's spec, Uneekor Pro at $199 a year for courses or GSPro, and by Uneekor's guidance a 10 ft ceiling.

Mevo Gen 2 vs Square Golf Omni
If you want club path, the Square Golf Omni is the cheaper way to get it — $1,599 with path, attack angle and impact location measured using its club stickers, against $1,299 plus a $1,000 Pro Package on the Mevo Gen 2 — and it fits a shorter room: about 14 ft at the least on our room planner, where the Mevo's radar wants 17.

Mevo Gen 2 vs KIT
Both are radar-led portables that work indoors and out. The Mevo Gen 2 is $3,700 cheaper, and still $2,700 cheaper with its $1,000 Pro Package for full club data; the Full Swing KIT's premium buys built-in swing video and the Full Swing name.
See the comparison →Mevo Gen 2 vs SkyTrak ST MAX
The SkyTrak ST MAX fits a shorter room than the Mevo and runs native Mac and iPad apps (M1 or newer), but course play costs $299.99 a year; the Mevo Gen 2 is $396 cheaper, has no subscription and is on GSPro's official list — if you have the 17 ft of room its radar needs.

Why trust us
We sell nothing. We recommend things, and we tell you the tradeoffs.
Every recommendation lists the alternatives we considered and the reason they lost. We don’t take payments from manufacturers. Our affiliate relationships are with retailers, who set their own commission rates — and those rates don’t shape our picks.
