Manta versus Elite T3

[vixtor]

Hello,

Can you please help me to understand the differences between Manta and Elite T3?

From what I see:
- Manta doesn't have Cylinder pressure monitoring (and all the resulting features)
- T3 operates deeper in freedive mode (but I don't intend to get down to 133 meters in freedive anyway)
- on Manta the ACI PC Download is optional (but I guess I just need the cable and the software, the feature is there anyway)
- T3 supports 3 gas mixes

If I don't care about any of these supplementary features of the T3, is there anything else more attractive on the Elite T3 than on the Manta? Logically, Manta seems enough for me, but I think I like the look of the T3 better, so I am looking for more reasons

Biggest differences are:
The Manta has watch functions.

Doesn't have:
Warning at .2 less than user setting
Buddy check
Air time remaining bar graph
Turn and ending pressure alarm

Price for Manta is quite a bit less, plus there is a $50 off promo right now.
