Garmin instruments use bluetooth to share information with other devices, like iPads. These new instruments will allow an owner to easily retrofit superior instruments without remodeling the panel and will provide the option to display that certified information on an iPad. So essentially the owner can have G3X appearance with less expense and labor. Or they can use the 3-1/8 displays.
As a G3X user I can report that the Garmin info display of the artificial horizon that includes the airspeed and altitude tapes becomes so intuitive that going back to steam gauges is a real step backwards. Both styles do the job but the glass display does it better.
