Choosing among dive computers and instruments is less about finding one universal winner and more about deciding what you can accept underwater: a lower price with an untested condition, a new-in-box console, a compass, or a large display with added accessories. The four choices here span a wide price range. Start with the feature or condition that would change your decision, then use the price table to see how the choices differ.
Quick take
Start with condition, not just price. The Suunto Cobra with Case Untested has the lowest listed price but is marked Used; the other Suunto Cobra is marked New and titled NEW in Box. Aqualung is Used, while Oceanic is New other (see details) and carries the highest listed price. Once that split is clear, choose among the named compass, air-integration, display, and accessory details that match your priorities.

Product notes
Aqualung i330R 2 Gauge Scuba Dive Computer Plus Compass
The Aqualung i330R 2 Gauge Scuba Dive Computer Plus Compass suits a diver who wants the title's compass alongside a bright color screen, rechargeable battery, Bluetooth, and four modes with three nitrox mixes. The description also identifies the console as Used, with minor cosmetic signs of use, and says it had a local dive-shop service before its last use. Its limitation is therefore condition rather than a lack of named functions: the USD 300.00 price is attached to a used unit. Choose it when the i330R's screen and connectivity details matter more than New or New in Box wording.
Suunto Cobra Air Integrated Scuba Dive Computer Compass Console w/ Case Untested
Suunto Cobra Air Integrated Scuba Dive Computer Compass Console w/ Case Untested is the clearest low-price choice, and the title names both air integration and a compass. The protective case is a practical included detail. The limitation is explicit: the item is marked Untested and Used, so its working status has not been established by testing. That makes the USD 119.95 price a condition-sensitive choice, not a straightforward new-equipment purchase. It fits a shopper willing to accept the untested wording in exchange for the console, case, and named navigation and air-integration features.
Suunto Cobra Air-Integrated Scuba Dive Computer - NEW in Box - Console
Suunto Cobra Air-Integrated Scuba Dive Computer - NEW in Box - Console is the most direct match for a new-condition purchase. Its description names air integration, tank-pressure, depth, time, and no-decompression-limit tracking, plus nitrox compatibility, audible and visual alarms, a clear display, and a user-replaceable battery. The console-mounted format is part of its stated design. The trade-off is that console format, which may not suit a shopper seeking a different form factor. At USD 195.49, choose it for the NEW in Box wording and the broad set of named dive-monitoring functions.
Oceanic Pro Plus 3 Dive Computer With Compass LOOKS LIKE NEVER WET! Nice
Oceanic Pro Plus 3 Dive Computer With Compass LOOKS LIKE NEVER WET! Nice is aimed at shoppers who want the title's compass and the description's full-function air-integrated air/nitrox computer. Its large display area, legible digits, download cable, spare battery, and O-ring give the package several clearly named extras. The limitation is both price and condition wording: at USD 397.50 it is the highest-priced choice, and the condition is New other (see details), not simply New. Choose it when the Pro Plus 3 display and accessory details carry more weight than the price spread across the comparison.
Final recommendation by use case
- For the lowest-price use case: choose the Suunto Cobra with Case Untested, provided its Used and Untested condition fits your tolerance.
- For a new-in-box console: choose the Suunto Cobra Air-Integrated model for its air integration and named monitoring functions.
- For a compass and screen/connectivity mix: choose the Aqualung i330R, accepting its Used condition.
- For a large display and included accessories: choose the Oceanic Pro Plus 3, accepting its highest price and New other condition.
The practical choice is the one whose condition and named features align with your priorities before the price becomes the deciding factor.
