Default Depth finder/GPS Help

I am in the market for a GPS/depth finder combo and could use a little assistance. This is the first time I've bought one and I'm not the computer inclined type. If anyone has any opinion on the best ones out there as far as accuracy, ease of use I'm all ears! I'm looking for something with a bigger screen that's easy to read.

Our Express came with a Hummingbird 365i Combo GPS/Fish finder. Found it to be ok for the price, around the $400 range. We run it with the delivered maps it came with which is pretty good. You can buy Navionics or Hot Maps maps in the form of SD cards.

Garmin units are the easiest to use by far. Also come with really good basemaps

First you need to know what you want to spend. If that's not an issue, they have units out there with up to 15" screens.. I'd say go with at least a 7" screen.
