    this is a great unit, however, maybe it's user error, but it doesn't stay on the suction cup holder and always falls off...

    It's a decent device with the exception of having to purchase a $99 cable to use Bluetooth Featured Ilive App :-(

    Returning this product. Does not connect to Escort Live without $100 smart cord. Does not filter outside collision avoidance systems. Placed my old BEL detector next to it and the BEL had better range! They both go off all the time.

    Decent Radar

    Decent radar, replaces the x50 but essentially the same radar, just a newer shell. Making changes isn't as easy and descrete anymore such as the scrolling dial replaced but hard buttons that are recessed onto the top. Escort live is nice but requires additional parts

    This is NOT Bluetooth compatible to use with the Eacort Live App unless you purchase the Smartcord Live cord which cost another $100+..I'd recommend just buying the Escort MaxII its the same thing but with everything you need!!

    I purchased for the GPS feature - this device does not offer on the standard model- you need a $100 cord for it to work- radar feature works like other models

    Bought this because the box said that it would be able to Bluetooth to my phone with the app provided. After several hours of trying to figure it out I googled it and came to the conclusion that you would need another extension to what is already provided to be able to have the Bluetooth capabilities. Returned because it did not do what it was advertised to do.

    I only purchased this radar detector due to Best Buy's "Deal of the Day" and so it was worth a shot. I've driven a out 2,500 miles and have been around state troopers, local LEO, and sheriff units...complete fail! Do not bother with this unit at all.

    This Escort X70 Radar detector is a great one. Its good in the city with few false Alerts. On the Interstate has great range and is great around bends and with many other vehicles in front of yours. This is the 3rd Escort Radar detector I've owned around the same price range. Any Escort Radar detector is top of the line:)

    Piece of junk!!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This thing is a piece of junk!! After only using a couple of times, it continually flashes "need service" and doesn't work. I paid hundreds of dollars for a malfunctioning piece of plastic. Keep in mind, I always kept this thing in the center console in a case and it NEVER overheated. Escort is yet another company that is producing crappier and crappier quality products.

    Display flickered and died.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is not my first Escort, but it is surely my last. Display broke before it was even mounted on the windshield. Jiggled the detector a little and came back on for sec and then went back off. Never came back on. Returning this thing, no interest in trying this again. Escort you are a sad shadow of your former self.
