    Great for beginners. Not as advanced as other detectors like escort.

    It has been awhile since I have owned a radar detector, this one has impressed me. False alerts have been reduced, most of the time when it alerts I can spot the cause and it gives plenty of forewarning. I found a review online comparing this one to a higher priced one and the reviewer (who is not a Cobra fan) was really impressed by this one.

    Works just like it's supposed to. Only thing is after using it for months it's started to filter out less false alerts. The distance that it picks up is really good but not quite as good as the more expensive escort which is expected since the price is so much lower than an escort.

      Thank you for the great review! Kindly check your detector's sensitivity mode. Setting the sensitivity to High results in no filtering for maximum sensitivity. cedarelectronics-cobra

    8th month review RAD700I speaker issue

    Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It has worked flawless and really like it. Has saved me a ticket numerous times. Value seems fair. At 8 months the speaker stopped working. It’s basically useless because I can’t watch the tiny screen haulin down the road. I hope the 1 year warranty works out for me. Like it but very unhappy at the moment.

      We are happy to hear that the RAD 700i has helped save you, but we regret to hear about the issue with the speaker. Please contact Customer Support at 800-543-1608 so we can assist. The detector does carry a 1-year warranty. cedarelectronics-cobra

    This is an excellent detector it has saved me a couple of times in the past month. I have traveled over 2000 miles in the past month and have came up on a couple state troopers and I was over the speed limit. Needless to say it saved me.

    This radar is a great step up above the 480i it has better filtering and better detection for moving cops and stationary cops the only con is the price and that it is a little bigger than the other cobras out there but overall a great detector

    I have one for each vehicle in the family. My son is a police officer and we tested them. Pretty much a 1-2 mile detection in front and behind you. Strongly recommend! Pays for itself every time it goes off.!
