Sleek New Body – The plastic body is completely redesigned, with a nearly edge to edge glass font. You have an overlay option (Depth, Speed, Temp), or Data Boxes which stack on the left side. The exclusive Lakemaster mapping options like depth highlight and water level offset are all there as well. New Graphics – The menus have been updated graphically, but the menus themselves are mostly the same.
This means HD side imaging, blended beam Down Imaging, and 83/200 kHz standard sonar. Same Transducers – It comes packed with the XHS 9 HDSI 180 T, the same transducer as the 900 & 1100 series. There are a lot of things about the Helix 10 that you will be familiar with. **You can network other Helix 9, 10, 12, as well as 800/900/1100 series units with the 5 Port Ethernet Hub and the necessary cables. You can exchange your new, unopened transducer for the HDSI transducer to get the 800kHz option. *Helix 9 comes with the “Compact SI” transducer, which is only 455kHz capable.
The Helix 10 though, has 1024×600 pixels, and is a big reason you might want to save your money and get the 10. What’s kind of crazy is the Helix 9 display has 800×480 pixels, the same number of pixels in a 9″ screen as the Helix 7 and Helix 5. Physically, the Helix 9 & 10 share the same plastic body, so on the 9 you get a wider black border around the screen. Despite looking very similar, there are some differences between the units, which are helpful to compare in the table.
