The problem is if something is not working you lose both!

I have seprate Garmins, and they are side by side so looking at 2 different ones is not a issue.

As for color I don't have it, I think it is fine with out, but I would love to own a color that you can see in the sun!!

Sometimes when the sun is out full its tuff to see that screen!! I have had to cup my hands over it to see, and that sucks!

I love Garmin and I won't by anything else.

I was not happy with Humingbird, or the small eagle. I did buy a Egale looked just like the Lowarnce my buddy had, and he loves it!!
But I hated the Eagle, showed fish were there was none, and no fish when we were on top of a school of Mackeral???


So I say pick your brand, get two sperate units, and go color if you can.
