Garmin Echomap UHD 93sv VS Humminbird Helix 7: Features 

Your welcome. Those were big points for me after I learned it.

@@BassAndBrews from what I’ve seen thus far the Garmin looks like the better unit, of course, depending on who you are and what you’re looking for. I particularly like the touchscreen and also like the clarity on the imaging. The question I do have and I’m continuing to look and learn about the devices, particularly the Garmin. Does the Garmin require a different and/or better transducer for the side imaging or does the GT 54 (think that’s the model, driving at the moment using talk to text) that comes with it already provide excellent imaging? I’d imagine it allows for the addition of a new (better/different) transducer. Thank you again

@@Wrensspeedshop good question. Everything you see in this video and any of my videos is the GT54. I think the imaging is great. The other transducer I see with these is the GT56. I think these transducers are quite similar. The 54 has ranges of 800 and 455 down view, and 1200 and 455 side view. The 56 has 1000, 800, and 455 for down and side view. So that means that the 54 has a higher accuracy side view but no 800. The 56 has higher accuracy down view and more variability throughout. The numbers really mean this, higher numbers are more accuracy and less distance. Lower numbers are lower accuracy and more distance. Hope that helps.

Maybe you had different units than mine but I feel like I can see soo much more on sidescan on my Garmin then I ever could on the humminbird. A good part of that was probably the difference in frequency on these models

Yep it sure will. You touch the screen where you want. It will pause the graph. Hit the button that pops up to save a waypoint. Save then hit play again. Super simple

I agree. Garmin is just more user friendly. I’ve been loving my unit still

Right with one exception. Looks like a brand new helix 7 G4N with mega Si or Di will work.

Yea man I hear ya there. That’s why I upgraded from my humminbird

Um similar size really. I’m nostalgic sure of the dimensions off hand but I can say for having a 9inch screen vs a 7 it is competitively smaller. I bought a storage box for my helix and the 93sv still fits in it.

@BassAndBrews I know the screen size would be similar, I mean the outer dimensions of the entire fish finder. My helix 9 g2n are wider than a touch garmin
