Humminbird Ice Helix 5 vs Garmin Striker 5 Ice Bundle

[yuranB]

Does anyone own any of the following flashers and can share an opinion?

Garmin Striker 5 Ice Bundle - $399
Humminbird Ice Helix 5 - $450

Both of these units just came out so there are no reviews on them yet.
I know both of them have CHIRP transducer and GPS. Garmin has narrower cone 8-16 degrees and Helix has 15-21 cone. I think Helix has a better display quality.
Any opinions which one is better?

I purchased a Humminbird Ice Helix 5 in December and have had it out 15 times this ice season and I am quite happy with it. I looked at both the Garmin and the Humminbird. I decided on the Humminbird because of previous experience with Humminbird products.

Curious if you purchased one or the other...

I can't speak for the Garmin,  but humminbird created an entire software package for their ice units and it works really well.
