I found the specs and pricing pretty much the same. Reports from a few sources claim that after developing the technology, HB hasn't really put any effort into advancing it while Lowrance has and is starting to pull ahead.
Also, HB has always been, to me anyway, a freshwater product. I am replacing an old Lowrance LMS 160MAP that I bought in 2000 that has stood up to constant salt spray and direct sun without missing a beat.
