Combo comparison

Hello all.
I'm considering getting a side scan chartplotter combo, either a Lowrance HDS or Humminbird and keen to get feedback from people who may have used both. Current prices show the Lowrance to be more expensive so was wondering if they are worth the extra dollars? I'm looking at either a 5 inch or 7 inch screen.
A side question that I have not been able to find out yet is whether my old SD map card out of my Lowrance LMS 334 will fit the HDS units? They say they use a micro SD but maybe that fits into an SD size carrier card so I might be right? It could have a bearing on what I get considering the map card costs.
Thanks.

 I have the HDS touch and it takes a standard size SD map card and second slot is the same.

It has side / down scan but limited use so far, so no real help there sorry.
