If I had to choose it would be the raymarine it's compatible with there new chirp transducers coming out next month it has blue tooth to iPhone so you can watch your sounder from anywhere on boat plus lots more

Definaely Raymarine over
Definaely Raymarine over HDS7, HDS8 as closer call as it has the soft keys. I think the raymarine will be a slicker package to use.
