fish finder..?

I’m planning on getting a Deeper and using my old I-pad for the screen. Deeper units use WiFi to connect the transponder to your phone or pad, no cables..
 
Following along...as I've been thinking the same. Probably stay in the Garmin family for me.
 
From the Deeper site.

Yes, all Deeper Smart Sonar devices will work wherever you are. They do not require any kind of internet or cell connection in order to be used. However, you will need Internet to install the Deeper application on your smart device (smartphone or tablet).

Please note that some application functions such as Weather forecast, Maps or ice hole marking do require an internet and GPS connection on your phone.

In case you are fishing in an area with no internet connection, you can pre-download offline maps. This way you will be able to fully use the bathymetric mapping features of your Deeper even with areas with no internet connection.
 
Why a bigger screen? Are you thinking more along the lines of gps mapping? The 4" screen seems just fine for depth, fish marking, water temp. and speed.
I often fish from the front of the boat, including drift fishing, and a 4" screen at 10' away is less than desirable
