Anybody know if a new model is slated soon or for next year? Looking to buy but worried that current product is getting long in the tooth.

I was thinking about this last night! Hopefully some upgrades

I wouldn't think so! If they can't upgrade the app. Don't think they will come out with a new one. But, who knows.

No real competition pushing them to innovate or update their current slate of offerings.

They have responded to issues with their app with "we have a new app coming in a few months" for about 2 years now.

I'd hope that the annoyances with the app losing connection and becoming unreliable past the ~100 series/unknown large number of shots threshold would be solvable without a complete hardware refresh. Even a replacement Bluetooth daughterboard would be acceptable if it couldn't be done 100% in software.

The aftermarket have pretty much perfected every shortcoming or annoyance other than the app (several of which LabRadar has bought and resells under their brand). I know they are not a fan of the recoil trigger which is a bit amusing given they have a similar device for their Infinition products.
But I understand the issue there is people contacting them for support on it Vs the trigger vendor (tip, the originator of the idea [Piet] provides the most info on use, that ain't the copycats).

No "commerical" challenger is out currently. Caldwell had one in the works, so wait another 12 months off the globe to unfuk itself, and R&D resume.

I run a LR w/ latest firmware all the time and have never once had any issues. It’s been a absolute pleasure. I use the app 100% of the time linked to my iPhone and never dropped signal.
I know of 8 other shooters that have never had issues.
Could it be the area?
