Our view
The Fazer XR5 exists at a price point that is hard to argue with — £89 is the cheapest slope rangefinder in our index. The honest problem is the complete absence of published specifications. Without knowing the range, magnification, accuracy or IP rating it is impossible to make a confident recommendation. The Mileseey PF260 Tour at £109.99 offers confirmed specifications, 25 reviews, a 5-year guarantee and a dual power system for £20 more — that is the stronger buy for any golfer who can stretch the budget slightly. The Fazer XR5 is listed for completeness as the entry price option available at American Golf stores.
Pros
- At £89 it is the lowest price rangefinder with slope in the guide
- Fazer XR5 range branding provides some equipment brand familiarity
- Available at American Golf for in-store purchase
- Yards or metres option suits golfers who use metric distances
Cons
- No specifications published — range, magnification, accuracy and IP rating unknown
- No independent reviews found
- Fazer is primarily a club manufacturer — rangefinder credentials unestablished
- At £89 the Mileseey PF260 Tour at £109.99 offers significantly better specification
- Appears to be clearance pricing — availability may be limited
