Compare ProTee VX and Uneekor EYE XO using the same finished room, software and installation scope. Published monitor prices are useful anchors, but they do not establish the cheaper completed simulator. This guide prepares a comparable UK quotation; it does not invent two private installer quotes.
Research-based buying guide, checked 13 September 2026. We have not carried out hands-on testing. Product details come from the linked official sources; the comparison and trial suggestions are our editorial advice.

The published prices are starting points
On 13 September 2026, GolfBays listed the ProTee VX at £6,240 and its VX Lux Home package at £11,500. Its Uneekor collection listed the original EYE XO at £8,278. The hardware difference is £2,038. Comparing the VX package price directly with the XO monitor price would be misleading because their contents differ.
Send each supplier an identical room brief and request an itemised delivered price, with VAT treatment stated. Separate the monitor, screen enclosure, mat, projector, PC, licences, mounting, electrical work, survey and commissioning. A package can still require substantial work even when its name includes “home simulator”. Confirm each included component rather than inferring it from a room photograph.
Fit the sensor to the finished hitting surface
ProTee’s official VX setup instructions measure mounting height from the hitting surface and show the positioning relationship for the 275–305cm installation range. The configurable hitting area is up to 65×55cm. A raised mat changes that measurement; a ceiling measurement from a bare concrete floor is insufficient. Have the installer follow the actual mounting diagram and assess the ceiling structure.
The original EYE XO manufacturer specification describes a front-mounted ceiling unit with a 12×16-inch hitting zone, dual cameras and club stickers recommended for accurate club data. Do not import the hitting area or mounting arrangement of EYE XO2 or EYE XR into this comparison. Ask to see the intended ball position on the finished floor, including where a left-handed visitor would stand.
| Quote line | What to pin down | Why it changes the decision |
|---|---|---|
| Sensor | VX or original EYE XO, full model identity | A substitute model changes both price and layout |
| Room works | Finished floor height, sound treatment and mounting assessment | Hardware cannot compensate for unsuitable geometry |
| PC and display | Exact graphics card, resolution and software versions | Computer requirements follow the whole software stack |
| Simulation | Named licence, account holder, first year and renewals | Included viewing software is not every course package |
| Handover | Calibration, test shots, training and fault contact | Delivery alone does not prove the installed system works |
Avoid an underspecified computer comparison
Ask both suppliers to quote the same target resolution and named course software. Include any swing cameras, video replay or additional analysis you actually want. A basic practice application and a demanding graphics or AI package can need different computers. “Gaming PC included” is too vague to compare: record the model, processor, graphics card, memory, storage and warranty.
Also confirm the network and cable route before finalising the room. The VX setup specifies an Ethernet connection to the computer. Agree how connections reach their endpoints without entering a swing or ball-impact area, and who is responsible for troubleshooting them. Structural fixing and electrical installation should be assessed by the appropriate qualified trades, not improvised from a product photograph.
Use commissioning as the acceptance test
Include a practical demonstration with your shortest shots, normal irons, driver and putts if putting is part of the package. Test every intended handedness. Ask the installer to save the final configuration, show how to recover it, and explain which controls the owner can adjust. Agree what happens if the finished installation cannot provide the promised functions.
Record the maintenance tasks, replacement consumables and support response route. For EYE XO, include the club-sticker workflow in the demonstration. For either system, ask how normal changes to the room—daylight, moved furniture or a different mat—affect calibration. Our impact-screen guide covers a separate component that should receive its own specification.
Which quotation should you accept?
Prefer the system that fits the room and delivers the required practice functions under a clear scope. A cheaper sensor loses its advantage if it needs unpriced building changes; an expensive package is not automatically better supported. Use the simulator overview for the broader component checklist, then compare written offers line by line. We have not obtained site-specific installer quotations or approved a particular room.
