Only what’s available on the website and YouTube. I’m on the Lowrance Dealer Pro Staff and I’ve been given the scoop from the Lowrance guys that it’s a licensed product from Garmin. The transducer looks different but it’s the same exact technology.

I’ve already ordered and paid for mine. Just waiting on the product to start shipping. The Lowrance version (LiveSight) will retail for 999.00 when it’s available.

You can read some about it here.

Let’s see, Humminbird has upgrade EVERYTHING TO MEGA except 360......it is the same as originally launched...... would bet the next “big thing” from them will be real-time 360 Mega..... Also that is THE reason they are telling everyone to only put a DI unit up front. (So that when the 360 upgrade comes out it will be a MUST HAVE)
Just ordered a new 2080 Vexus but holding off on 360 because I am betting on this.

Xpress X20 PFC. It’s a Crappie model with dual Livewells, and 3 across seating. 52 years of boat building the the Hyperlift Pad Ride hull. It’s a screamer with the SHO 200 on it.

Just let me know when and I’ll come pick up the keys. I sure appreciate the generosity!

That's awesome looking! Just out of curiousity, how does it compare to the standard sidescan? I mean, could a person get a similar result sidescanning the area, or is the Panoptix that much better to read?

There's no comparison, it's that much better.
