The Helix 5 has a 5-inch display that has a landscape orientation. It has an excellent 800 x 480-pixel resolution.

Not surprisingly, a lot of Amazon.com reviewers have pointed out that the high-resolution display of this unit is a reason why they’re happy with the Helix 5.
Mounting the Helix 5 is done through a plastic gimbal mount. This replaces the old, quick disconnect mounting system that Humminbird used for so many years.
It also features a single microSD card slot located on its left side.
This may be packed in features but the Helix 5 isn’t networkable. This may have been due to Humminbird’s desire to keep this model affordable.
Another issue that’s been repeatedly raised by Amazon.com reviewers is the lack of an instruction manual. You would have to go to Humminbird’s website and look for its user’s guide to get some help in using this fishfinder.
Overall this is still one of the best fish finders in terms of functions and price. It doesn’t have the steepest price but it is loaded with features that should keep the techie user contented.Humminbird HELIX 5
