As a non-Chase MP card, does not appear to have the bag fee waiver or premier boarding or CPU eligibility on award tickets nor the PQD waiver. And it has ForEx

What would be the reasons for this card First Hawaiian Bank MP Card vs Chase card?

Annual fee is $60 vs Explorer $95.
From where I'm standing the lower annual fee is the main reason. I already get bag fee waiver, premier boarding, and CPU eligibility based on my MP status so the Chase card gives me nothing additional on those items. I don't care about PQD waiver and the FHB card gives me the same 1 award mile per dollar on standard purchases and 2 award miles per dollar on United purchases that I get from Chase so this just might be an option for me next year. The one other thing I get from Chase that I don't see from FHB would be the 2 lounge passes per year which I've gottten used to having.
