Looking for some feed back on this unit. Just sold my garmin 441s. Loved it no problems. I want a bigger unit. I want to switch over to lowrance. Garmin 740 series is nice but its just like the iphone bigger better but all the same. Lowrance is like android requires a little more to operate. Charts look awesome imaging etc.

Im about to upgrade to a newer lowrance. The one I currently have is gonna go on my front deck. My only dislike about lowrance is the poor quailty basemap. You have to buy a navionics card or the insight version. They are also about to come out with an insight HD chip for about half the price of a navionics chip next month. I had a garmin on my last boat and it was easier to use but lacked some of the functions of the lowrance

Check out online Louisiana Sportsman report section. Someone compared a recent Lowrance with a Garmin and the clarity of the Lowrance was amazing. I think it was Century Man that gave the report come to think of it.

I never cared for touch screens....they get full of oil and grime from your fingers and constantly have to clean them. Personally I would go with the regular HDS.

If you can get the 8 its actually almost 2 inches bigger (i think like 6.4 and 8.3) and if you had a chance to use them both you would realize how much the soft keys make things so much easier.
