The X80 is a legit detector for the price but the Escort Max 360 will provide significantly less false alerts and is such an upgrade over this detector. If you’re on a budget the X80 gets the job done every time.
The “quality” and ease of use of the item are great, the false alert filtering is the real weak link here.

Plug in and drive, not complicated to use. This is my second radar detector. I gave my first to a friend, this replacement works well, not that I speed, just like peace of mind if I am not paying close attention in those speed traps.

It works terrific. It picks up well . Works great with the app. Only down fall is the power cable is too short and the mount doesn’t stick well. Picks cops up about a mile to mile and half.

Good performance, Annoying non-learning Radar Dete

Good performance out of the radar detecting. But this radar detector isn’t even close to the quality of the passport max. I got tired of this thing after a few months when it wouldn’t shut up everytime I passed an auto door, or some spots on the highway that have radar. The max would learn those spots. It’s just a nuisance to have a radar detector that doesn’t do the same thing because it’s always making noise for no reason.

Shopped around for a while, choose this one based on reviews and pricing. Very happy I did... saves me a ticket just about everyday! Haves auto mute, Bluetooth to a free app that’s pretty helpful, and can shut off certain bands to eliminate false signals. I love it!

Works very reliably, and is pretty straightforward to use! So far it seems to be great at detecting radar from significant distances, which is handy! The app is somewhat lacking as it introduces significant battery drain, and the default-on alerts for previously recorded radar detections is actually quite irritating. That being said, it's not necessary to use the device, which is great!
Beyond any of that, it works wonderfully, and its compact-ish size makes it unobtrusive hanging from my windshield.

Of coarse you get what you pay for. This is a $300 detector. Im satisfied with my purchase. I bought a,2nd one for my sons car. It definately keeps you alerted to radar. If your budget is higher I recommend the next tier up at a cost of about $450

Great detector for the price, only one drawback! The cord supplied is too short for our car, we resolved it by buying the longer cable from the manufacturer's website. Yes it was an added cost to us but worth it.
