Humminbird APEX 19 CHO VX — 19" Full-HD Chartplotter & Fishfinder MFD

Humminbird APEX 19 CHO VX — Large-Format Flagship Command Display

The Humminbird APEX 19 CHO VX is the largest display in the APEX lineup — a 19-inch full-HD command center built for serious helm installations on larger vessels where screen real estate, sonar clarity, and network integration are non-negotiable. Powered by a dual-core processor and the Cross Touch® Interface, the APEX 19 handles the most demanding multi-function workloads — simultaneous sonar, charting, radar, and boat network control — without compromise.

The CHO (Control Head Only) configuration ships without a transducer, giving you the flexibility to pair this display with your existing compatible transducer or specify a custom AIRMAR unit for a high-performance installation.

Best Use Cases

• Large centre consoles, walkarounds, and sportfishing vessels where a 19" display is the right scale for the helm
• Professional and charter operations where multiple sonar views, charts, and radar need to be visible simultaneously at a glance
• Custom helm builds specifying a large-format primary display with a separately sourced or existing transducer
• Multi-display helm setups where the APEX 19 serves as the primary command station alongside secondary displays
• Anglers and captains who spend long days on the water and want the least eye strain from a large, high-resolution screen

Parts Desk Insights

• CHO means no transducer is included — confirm you have a compatible MEGA Imaging+™ transducer or plan to source one separately. The APEX 19 supports the full range of Humminbird MEGA transducers as well as AIRMAR units up to 2kW.
• The APEX 19 is the largest display Humminbird offers in the APEX series — if you’re debating between the 16" and 19", the 19" is the right call for larger vessels or helm layouts where viewing distance from the display is greater.
• At 12+ kg, this is a substantial unit — confirm your helm structure and mounting surface can support the weight, particularly for gimbal-mount installations.
• The dedicated 2kW AIRMAR transducer channel makes this unit well-suited to offshore and deep-water applications where high-power sonar performance is required.
• Verify helm cutout dimensions carefully before ordering — the 19" display requires a significantly larger cutout than the 13" or 16" models, and the front-mount kit dimensions should be confirmed against your dash layout.
