Deeper Smart Sonar PRO+ versus Deeper Smart Sonar Pro Fish Finder, Comparison Review

The Deeper Smart Sonar PRO+ and Deeper Smart Sonar Pro are wireless castable echo-sounders that are Wi-Fi connection enabled and compatible with smart devices on both iOS and Android.

 
Suitable for both fresh and salt water fishing, the Deeper Smart Sonar PRO+ and Sonar Pro can be used for a variety of fishing types including:

Flexible Arm Mount

  • Shore fishing
  • Boat fishing
  • Kayak fishing
  • River fishing
  • Ice fishing

You can use the Deeper Smart Sonar PRO+ and Sonar Pro with a standard rod or line or with a Flexible Arm Mount.

Designed to float on the surface of the water, the Deeper Smart Sonar PRO+ and Sonar Pro fish finders can scan the entire bottom and water column and measure:

  • Depth
  • Temperature
  • Bottom structure
  • Mark fish

All of this information is then instantly streamed to your iOS/Android mobile device via the Deeper App (app is free to download to your smartphone/tablet) and you don't need to use your mobile data as these fish finders have an internal Wi-Fi access point that connects to your mobile device.




The Deeper App operates in both online and offline modes and offers a host of useful features including:

Because the Deeper Smart Sonar PRO+ and Sonar Pro Fish Finders have built-in Wi-Fi connection they provide better distance range and higher scanning frequency than the original Deeper Smart Fish Finder which worked on Bluetooth.



Distance and depth ranges of the PRO+ and Pro are:

  • Up to 330 ft / 100 meters distance range between fishfinder and your mobile device
  • Up to 260 ft / 80 meters depth range


Frequency scanning of the PRO+ and Pro are:

  • Up to 15 scans per second to capture fast moving objects
  • 8x extended dynamic range for more accurate detection of objects underwater
  • High scanning resolution separates objects in a distance up to 0.04 ft / 1.3 cm to capture smaller objects underwater

Both the Deeper Smart Sonar PRO+ and Sonar Pro Fish Finders also offer dual frequency sonar beam:

  • 290 kHz (15 degrees) - narrow beam for high accuracy scans of bottom structure and fish
  • 90 kHz (55 degrees) - wide beam for extended search area


Both the Deeper Smart Sonar PRO+ and Sonar Pro Fish Finders feature Boat Mode bottom contour mapping.  Boat Mode allows you to mark real-time bathymetric data on top of your archived offline map and display it directly on the screen of your mobile device.  Your mobile device / smartphone's GPS is used to set your precise location.  All maps can be archived for future use.

The Sonar PRO+ has a couple of extra features that the Pro does not have:

  • Built-in GPS (PRO+ only)
  • Boat Onshore GPS Mode (PRO+ only) - enables water bed mapping while onshore as well as off


Both the Deeper Smart Sonar PRO+ and Sonar Pro Fish Finders come with a rechargeable battery.  There's a slight difference in battery life between these two devices, with the Sonar PRO+ battery lasting for around up to 5.5 hours continuous use, while the Sonar Pro lasts a little longer at up to 6 hours continuous use on a single charge.  Both batteries have a complete recharge time of around two hours.


Both the Deeper Smart Sonar PRO+ and Sonar Pro are small and lightweight devices that fit easily in with your fishing gear or can be attached to your belt with the included neoprene carry pouch.  Dimensions:

·         Size:  2.6” diameter  (6.5 cm)
·         Weight:  3.5 ounces  (100 g)
