    I’ve had this radar detector for a little bit but when I had my first long distance drive through many states the performance was amazing I would get alerts from my radar detector even before Waze App would tell me that there’s Police ahead

    This is a really good radar detector. It is simple and easy to use. The Geek Squad at Best Buy hard wired the device to my truck, and did an outstanding job. I recommend that buyers have it installed at Best Buy.

    I purchased this for a long road trip this summer and it worked as advertised. It was on highway setting, so I didn't get a lot of false alarms. It gave me ample warning of several radar traps set up on my trip down 95, so I was able to avoid potential tickets. I don't regret this purchase.

    Awesome long range detector! Probably saved me thousands during a 4300 mile coast to coast drive. Highly recommend! A little difficult if you aren’t familiar with settings but great tutorials available online!

    Shopped around for quite a bit looking for a mid-price range detector. This one rivals my Escort Max360, if not a little better than it, at a lot less cost. I recommend it R3 for its distance and all the features, almost too many when setting it up :-)

    Straight forward radar. Honestly works great. Has a difficult time detecting anything if they are behind a hill/mountain side but if they are in the middle of the highway itll pick them up seveal miles out

    Works every time, well before I see the radar or police vehicle, I only use the Ka and Laser features, in highway mode. The K and X features pick up every school zone radar or advisory speed radars which causes the unit to always be going off, with the X and K features off the detector only sounds when an actual radar ahead or police radar active coming from behind. Sometimes when nearing an overpass or underpass of a small town the detector may sound if there is a radar unit set near the highway on the side roads, all this unit needs is a directional pointer to further narrow done where the radar is located. This has been my best purchase ever!

    Working good so far. I just turned my K alert off because it would go off regularly in certain spots that I drove by everyday. Filters are accurate. Very easy to use. Remember, it will only detect police who has their radar/signal on, it won’t detect just police cars! Hopefully it will pay off in the future!

    I’ve been using this detector for a few months now and it has really saved me multiple times. I get a few false laser alerts but it is pretty spot on. Great radar detector for the price.

    Really good range. A bit annoying as it picks up my cars blind spot monitor a lot but still alerts really well. I mainly got this because my speed tends to get away from me and I needed something to remind me when I needed to slow down.

    Works good, low false alerts. Would love a feature to adjust for daylight savings, but no big deal.
