Our Verdict

Blue Tees Golf The Player

Blue Tees Golf Player+

The Blue Tees Golf Player+ is the successor to Blue Tees Golf The Player and offers some upgrades to the original. Most notably, the newer model is equipped with a sleek touchscreen that makes the device easier to navigate. It also offers access to the Blue Tees Game app, which offers GPS maps to over 40,000 courses. On the other hand, the older model has a better soundstage and dynamics performance, so it sounds more consistent from any angle around the speaker and gets louder.
