If they got the 999 for $1000, I would gab one it's a better unit. Usually, about 400-500 more.
Yea, you mind sharing where that is? I'd be interested in grabbing one at that price.
Academy sports and outdoor s has it. I just didn't know if it was like the 598 to 698 , you get a bigger screen but lose sonar coverage
I meant the same screen but you do gain quick settings and card slots but lose coverage, getting confused done looked at to many
I hear ya, these things get confusing when you're looking for new electronics. You must have found a local deal, academy online prices are way way higher on both units.
Those prices are weird...
Are you sure they weren't a 898 and a 999 priced about the same...??
Regardless...speaking of the models you listed...:
Same 2 card slots and 3 preset buttons...
The 999ci HD SI Combo comes with the XHS 9 HDSI 180 T xducer...(455kHz/800kHz)..
The 899ci HD SI Combo...comes with the Compact SI xducer (455kHz)....but it can be upgraded to the XHS 9 HDSI 180 T (455kHz/800kHz)...thru the HB xducer exchange program...

The 899ci HD SI Combo is NOT compatible with the Navionics Platinum...

They was both 999
maybe a 959 but not a 999 i dont think unless they have miss marked them
Just in case you are missing on what they are saying, "Skip work and run straight to Academy and buy the dern thing!! It's priced wrong and you may never get this opportunity again!!"
