I bought this on Aug 9th and finally had a chance to use it this last week. The screen and features were great, but the transducer is the problem. My tripleshot transducer broke in half during normal use the second time I used it on the lake. It was a choppy wavy day on the lake, which I assume contributed to it snapping.I contacted Lowrance and they refuse to warranty it. They told me that I was welcome to buy a new transducer, but they would not send me a replacement. I can't recommend a product if the company won't stand behind it.

I bought this and it worked great for the first few months, then the sonar started to malfunction by showing scattered data and sometimes would lose the bottom signal. Completed all troubleshooting steps provided on Lowrance web site. Then called Lowrance Tech Support. Tech support person was not knowledgeable on my equipment based on them asking me to check features that my unit does not have. Ultimately did a soft reset and told me to put it on the water and check it again. It still didn't work right. Called tech support again which resulted in them deciding to send me a warranty replacement head unit. Multiple hours on the phone to and 2+ weeks later, I still don't have the replacement unit.I have no issue with Cabelas.

I understand now after talking to several people that they have higher levels of Tech Support that are much more helpful in troubleshooting problems.

I have had depth finders in the past but nothing this high tech! I think it is great for beginners. Easy to use and navigate. Also the "Auto" options, where the finder will set itself up is great until you can learn what manual settings you prefer.Also the preloaded maps are worth it!!! First trip out was eveing and into the night. Going up the resevoir and into the river I had the finder mark our trail. Heading back to the ramp in the early morning, the tempature had dropped and the fog on the water was EXTREMELY thick. At times visibility was 10ft or less. I was able to follow the trail we had saved going in, to get back out!!! Otherwise we would have had to wait for the fog to lift.Well worth the price in my opinion!! I know there are fancier ones out there ... MoreI have had depth finders in the past but nothing this high tech! I think it is great for beginners. Easy to use and navigate.

By far easiest install than my previous Lowrance fishfinder-GPS. I have been installing these for 30 years. What I like most is the fact components on unit have evolved to smaller diameter and length of cables. Unit has just right features where I’m not trying to find (fumbling) options on screen/menu. Good price and love the larger screen. Can see very easy in bright sun conditions.
I love Lowrance products. However, this product has a severe limitation that makes it nearly useless for me. We all know that one of the great benefits of Lowrance products is the ability to create and share C-Map Genesis Live contour maps. This unit does that. No problem. I have spoken to three different Lowrance representatives and, apparently, what this unit cannot do is load Genesis Live data created by other Lowrance users. What that means for anyone who buys this unit is the following: You cannot go to the C-Map Genesis website and download Genesis Live maps that other users have created and load them into the unit. This seems completely crazy to me as the unit is fully capable of creating and reading (via the Genesis Live overlay option) the EXACT SAME FILE ... MoreI love Lowrance products.

This seems completely crazy to me as the unit is fully capable of creating and reading (via the Genesis Live overlay option) the EXACT SAME FILE TYPES when creating a Genesis Live contour map. So, in short, the unit can create and read Genesis Live map data, but cannot load and read the exact same type of data created by other users. What does the mean for you? Let's assume you want to go to a water near you that has already been mapped on Genesis Live. Although your unit can create such maps and can read the data it created, it cannot load maps created by other users into the unit. Infinitely stupid. This seems to me to be an extremely short sighted exclusion of functionality on the part of Lowrance. Let me reiterate; the unit can create and read the same files require to create Genesis Live data but it cannot read/load the exact same file types created by other users. This means that you, the user, cannot load Genesis Live data into the unit for viewing when on waters that have been mapped by other users. This, for lack of a better word, is stupid. If all that you want to do is mark fish with the sonar/downscan/sidescan, then this unit is for you. If, however, you want to use the unit for Genesis Live overlays created by other users, which the unit can seemingly do, you are out of luck. If you want this functionality do not buy the X series Hook Reveal.
I failed to investigate well enough before buying. The packaging on the 7X states that it hasGPS and PLOTTING. I equated plotting with chart plotting. IT IS NOT. Unless you buy either their Elite or Reveal Series for $300 more, all you get is a white screen with a line to show you direction and speed. NO MAPPING AND NO WAY TO ADD A CHIP FOR MAPS ON THE 7X. So essentially all you have is a nice fish finder.
I bought my Reveal 7 about a month ago and recently got it installed. It works nice but if you use any of the darker background the unit becomes almost like a mirror. It's very difficult to see anything in full sunlight. I have found the best background to use is white as it creates far less glare on the unit in full sun. The software update that is needed is for the display when fish are detected. You can change the display to display fish icons along with a depth. The icons need to be bigger and more distinguishable. If fish are close to the bottom, they are virtually indistinguishable from the clutter or weeds on the bottom. The depth reported on the screen is microscopic. I was hoping that when you use the zoom the font would get bigger but it doesn't.

The depth reported on the screen is microscopic. I was hoping that when you use the zoom the font would get bigger but it doesn't. At 56 years old, I don't have the worse vision but this is definitely a problem. By microscopic I mean the digits for the reported depth are on the order of a millimeter in size at BEST. That's just not good! This font issue greatly decreases the value of having such an expensive unit. I'd like to see a software update that has a more robust font selection and the ability to increase the font size on the display. The unit works well otherwise and is easy to navigate the menus.
The X model does not come with maps, which is stated, however…it has ZERO ability to add downloaded maps. They should make that feature available. At least you can “create” you own depth maps with a 2-32gb micro sd card. Also, the transducer cable is 20 feet. I have a 20 foot Grady White and the cable was about 3 feet too short. After going up the transom, down into the wiring tube, then up the helm console…I was about 3-4 feet short. Had to cut a brand new cable and splice a section in. WHY?? WHY can’t they make it 30 feet?? You can always coil up the extra, but if it’s too short, it’s a pain to lengthen it.
Big name like Lowrance and alot of advertised features that are difficult to use or impossible to get to work properly. Very disappointed overall.There are no instructions included, there is a quick guide on a card that just says to install transducer where you want it and turn unit on after plugging it in to a power source... Doesnt explain how to select or setup your transducer. Still cant find any information at all about what transducer I even have, I purchased the Splitshot model, but the transducer I have doesnt look anything at all like the one ive found on the internet. When I select the Splitshot transducer on the list, I get okish 2d graph? Alot of lines, everywhere. No matter how I change the sensitivity or any other setting, on auto or turned up/down ... MoreBig name like Lowrance and alot of advertised features that are difficult to use or impossible to get to work properly.

No matter how I change the sensitivity or any other setting, on auto or turned up/down all the way. The HD looks terrible. I see images on the internet of like photo like images of the bottom, grass, fish, and timber structure perfect. But for the life of me all I get is bluish colored blobs. Or whatever color palate I choose colored blobs. And the HD blobs dont match with the 2d blobs which makes me think im not even seeing anything below the boat. I went with Lowrance because I liked the genisis live ability but its alot more difficult to use, having to back up/use different buttons to navigate through it. Overall expected alot more compared to lower priced hummingbird and garmin units.
Extremely disappointed with Canadian tires inability to provide the correct information about this product. This is the AMERICAN version (part #000-15512-001 when it should have been the Canadian version Part # 000-15523-001) Which means it comes with a terrible version of C-map and Navionics. I had to get this information from lowrance.I will now have to go out and spend an additional $200 on the navionics SD card.Because I mounted it on my boat they will not refund my money. Super disappointed. DO NOT BUY!!!
