Placement tells you whether it sits behind you or beside the ball, which decides room depth and whether it moves for left-handers. Min depth is the maker's own setup distance, added up. Club data separates units that measure face angle from those that only give path or club speed. Courses is the cheapest yearly plan that unlocks simulated golf; third-party software such as GSPro is extra ([subscription costs explained](https://homegolfsimulatorguide.com/posts/launch-monitor-subscription-costs/)). Not sure what fits? Try the [launch monitor matcher](https://homegolfsimulatorguide.com/tools/launch-monitor-matcher/) or check your space in the [room size checker](https://homegolfsimulatorguide.com/tools/room-size-checker/). ## FAQ ### Which launch monitor scores highest in 2026? By our research-based score, the FlightScope Mevo Gen2 currently ranks highest (8.5/10), but the right unit depends on your room depth, budget and software. Sort the table by the column that matters most, or use the launch monitor matcher. ### Radar or camera: which launch monitor type is better indoors? Camera (photometric) units sit beside the ball and measure spin at impact, so they suit short rooms and give reliable indoor spin. Radar units sit behind the ball and need more depth; indoors some calculate spin or need metallic dots or RCT balls. Hybrids combine both. Our radar vs photometric guide explains the trade-offs. ### What does 'Min depth' mean in this chart? It adds up the maker's own setup distances: how far the unit sits from the ball plus the minimum distance from ball to screen or net, or the maker's own minimum room depth where it publishes one. Each product page quotes the exact figures used. Leave about a foot between the screen and the wall as well. ### Which launch monitors need a subscription? Most need a yearly plan for simulated courses. The FlightScope Mevo Gen2 and Voice Caddie SC4 PRO include courses with no plan, and the Full Swing KIT has no Full Swing plan for its data. The 'Courses' column shows the cheapest plan for each unit.
