    USA Garmin 93SV Plus vs Helix Mega G3 Si / Di !

    Def a price difference but does the garmin do anything better than the newest Mega 9 G3?

    Does Panoptix and Livescope...

    That and all the free maps was a big plus for me. I just bought a 93sv.

    Well,

    Side imaging is better with the birds.

    DI and 2d are on par with each other

    Garmin has Panoptix, birds dont

    Navionics and Garmin maps are combined now so I would say mapping is pretty even as well

    Both pretty user friendly

    Depends what you think would be more useful, Panoptix or 360 imaging.

    Doesn’t the 93sv plus come downloaded with 17,000 lakes/rivers mapped? Can you add a mapping chip or is that not an option? My brother in law bought one and pools 12 & 13 aren’t on the mapping
