If you're in the market for a portable launch monitor, FlightScope provides two significantly different options for you, which is why you'll want to check out the Mevo vs the Mevo+. While both launch monitors are very accurate and very portable, their features and price are considerably different. The FlightScope Mevo is the 3D doppler radar personal launch monitor created to help golfers improve their performance. Think top of the line accuracy in a very small package (3.55" x 2.76" x 1.18") that you use with your phone and the FS app. The unique FlightScope Mevo+ portable golf launch monitor, designed for more serious golfers, adds simulation to the mix and doubles the data parameters of the Mevo. It is still small (6.8" x 1.2" x 4.6" ), but is a big step up in features and price—$1,999.00 vs $499.00. However, if having the ability to come home after a long day's work and play a couple of rounds in under an hour is just your cup of tee, the Mevo+ is a no-brainer! And just in case you are wondering, Mevo is an acronym that stands for:
M = Measure your numbers (with real-time performance data)
E = Evaluate your game (save, upload and share practice sessions)
V = Visualize your improvement (action video clips captured by phone with data overlay)
O = Optimize your performance (with automatic video clipping and storage)

You can save, upload, and share every one of your practice sessions with your Mevo personal launch monitor!
The Mevo+ provides the 8 data parameter of the Mevo plus 8 more: horizontal launch angle, lateral landing, angle of attack, total distance, roll distance, spin axis, spin loft, and shot shape.
Comes with TruGolf E6 Connect options for iOS, and The Golf Club and Creative Golf 3D for PC.
Mevo+ has a built-in camera for easy target alignment. Video is taken with your Apple or Android camera in the FS Golf app.
Mevo+ has an internal, dedicated WiFi hotspot to ensure a strong connection between it and your tablet or phone.
Select video in the settings, the app will access the camera on your mobile device. In addition, slow motion video is available for mobile devices that have the feature.
Mevo can be used indoors and outdoors. The space requirements for indoors is 8 feet of ball flight and 4-7 feet behind the impact. In total you will need up to 15 feet of space.
Your Mevo should be placed 4-7 feet behind the golf ball on the ground. We have seen the best results with wedges at 4 feet and drivers at 7 feet, specifically with higher club speeds.
Mevo+ is compatible with the FS Skills App available on iOS and Android.
Outdoor: 7'-9' sensor to tee and unrestricted ball flight distance
Indoor: 8' sensor to tee and 8' minimum distance to net
Simulator Setup: 7' sensor to tee and 8' minimum distance to net
Like always, it depends on what you want from your new golf gadget.
If you're looking for an indoor/outdoor, very portable, very accurate launch monitor to give you basic performance data to help you improve your game for a more reasonable price tag, we definitely recommend the FlightScope Mevo.
If you want an indoor/outdoor launch monitor with numbers that rival many high-end monitors, with great simulation capability and software that lets you squeeze in a game when you otherwise would not—and you don't mind the higher price tag—then we highly recommend the FlightScope Mevo+!
