I don't have side by side comparison, but I'm adept at command line and I still use Magit even when I have command line or other IDE available.

Magit is my go to tool, I only use command line to quickly switch branches sometimes or for non-standard things.

Things I love about Magit:

- CHUNKING .. staging chunks or unstaging chunks is so easy (my favorite feature)

- General overview of information

- diffs, rebases, etc

- It's really fast when you learn the key chords

Other thing I use for Git:

- Command line (if I'm in command line and need to change a branch, might as well do it there)

- Tig (Log is fine in Magit too, just old habbits)
