(с)

At once two new devices from company Lowrance-HDS Live 9 and HDS live 12. They differ from the HDS devices of the old generation by more powerful processors (2-core in 9 HDS and 4--core in 12 HDS) and IPS-matrix.
In appearance: Glass screen, larger menu buttons, the body of the device has become more flat.
Sensors: devices can be equipped with active Imaging 2 sensors in 1 (lateral and vertical scanning) or active Imaging 3 in 1 (lateral + vertical scanning + CHIRP (vertical echo)). The possibility of connecting to the device of the running motor and smartphone was added.
By work and Image: Significant speed of work is announced due to more powerful processors and improvement of picture quality on the screen due to Active Imaging technology.
I suggest you to see the reviews on both devices, which was prepared by the official representative of Lowrance in Russia-the company "Slavutich ".

Cost of Devices:

-HDS LIVE 9: With sensor 2х 1 - 182080 rubles; With sensor 3х 1 - 202000 rubles
-HDS LIVE 12: 303000 rubles and 323000 rubles respectively.
The prices, as you see, are serious.
