Perhaps the correct question would be who made the world’s truly innovative first touchscreen remote-controlled GPS electric trolley PowaKaddy (RX1 GPS) or Motocaddy (M7 GPS).

Because both brands claim to be the first to make touchscreen remote-controlled GPS electric trolley.

These are the same or very similar features of the two touchscreen remote-controlled GPS trolleys:

  • pre-loaded with over 40,000 courses worldwide;
  • 3.5” screen. I believe PowaKaddy‘s TFT touchscreen provides a better experience than Motocaddy’s LCD screen. However, Motocaddy promises that its screen will be clearly visible in all weather conditions.
  • USB charging port.
  • Accurate distances to the front, center, and back of the green.
  • Prevents the trolley from tipping backward when traveling uphill.
  • The PowaKaddy RX1 GPS electric trolley also benefits from a Bluetooth Connected App for IOS and Android that allows for quick golf course updates on the go. While the Motocaddy M7 GPS electric trolley provides smartphone notifications (optional alerts include calls, texts, emails & app including Facebook & WhatsApp.
  • Active Green View – automatically updates green shape.
  • Delivers fast, accurate distances to greens and hazards.
  • Remains on the trolley when folded.
  • 14 kg.
  • Motocaddy costs £300 more than PowaKaddy. PowaKaddy: £1199.99. Motocaddy: £1499.99
