A little more information on what you need might be good. Regardless, I'm
sure you meant to ask which one we would buy, if we were going to buy
another. There is no "best."

If I were going to guy another computer, it would probably be an Oceanic,
Genesis or Aeris, all of which are made by the same company. It would be the
simplest, least expensive one that will handle nitrox. I would buy a nitrox
model even if I did not use nitrox because I'm likely to one day (I already
do) and even if I never did, I still might want to sell it some day. The
market's a lot bigger for nitrox computers.

I would not buy an air integrated computer because they do things I don't
like and cost more than computers that aren't air integrated. YMMV.

When I did buy new computers, I bought a NiTek Duo (two gas nitrox) and,
later, a NiTek He (multigas trimix), both for specialized purposes. I did
not, however, get rid of my Oceanic or Genisis hockey puck computers, the
ones that do many times more dives with me than the more sophisticated ones
do.

If you don't like my choices and decide on an air only computer, I can make
you a heck of a deal on a couple of US Divers Monitor I computers.

Your short list includes two good brands. Either should serve you well.

The best is what does everything you'll ever need and is affordable.
