I think those other brands you listed are more popular for offshore than "inshore" like the lakes we typically fish. I am sure they are all capable units, but my biggest concern would be their GPS mapping options. Lots of options for Lowrance and Humminbird, I don't know what they are for those others.
If you are in the market to spend $1000 or there abouts, the Elite 9 Chirp from Lowrance might be a good choice for you. Big screen, does downscan AND CHIRP which gets rid of a lot of the clutter on the screen with better definition of fish than non-chirp units.
You don't have an Ethernet port though since its not an HDS unit, but you can network through NMEA if you wish.
