You REALLY need to purchase a SkyEcho if you are valuing the traffic availability in your EFB. This goes for both of the products.
The traffic display is ONLY as good as your 3G/4G/5G connection, regardless of the product you are using.
A SkyEcho will show a real-time ADSB-in feed of your local area, regardless of cellular signal. Of course, it will also do ADSB-out for other SkyEcho users if you don't have a fixed transponder in your aircraft.
The sooner everyone gets ADSB-out (and IN) the better.
