Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the R3 DSP Long Range Radar and Laser Detector, particularly its impressive range, performance comparable to the R7, and comprehensive radar detection capabilities. Many find it accurate and easy to use, especially considering the price. While false alarms are a concern for some, the device's GPS functionality and other features are appreciated, and the display is easy to read. The size is also seen as an improvement over the R7.

    I’m super impressed with the range and the “false” signal feature. I truly believe this is the best detector for the money. Can’t beat a Uniden

    This radar detector is a great value for the price. Once you get the hang of using it it’s very easy and it works well.

    Uniden pulled the stops when creating the R3! It picks up most KA bands 1-2 miles out unless the squad has their radar off. It also picks up red light and speed cameras to let you know when to exercise caution. A ton of custom features from band sensitivity to differential tones for each band. I love this device and the bang for my buck I got by price matching.

    It's pricey, but it works really well. It detected a police officer on a curvy road literally a mile away. It mounts nicely and has many cool features.

    Drove 900 miles night/day. Worked like a champion. It never gave false alarms. Always notified me well in advance of pending radar. Even picked up the red light cameras.

    I absolutely love this radar, it picks up bands from very far away. On the first day I used it, it saved me from a speeding ticket. In my mind this thing has already paid for it's self.

    I bought this just before a trip from Miami FL up to Harrisburg PA. I cruised over 930 miles at about 85 to 90. With this bad-boy the cops didnt have a chance! I was aware of them about a quarter mile out before they could light me up. I would slow down to the speed limit and wave, then blast off again a mile later. Turned a 12 hour trip into 10 hours and 15 minutes. Well worth it....

    I’ve used this detector in the city and on the highway - great performance and sensitivity. Picked up a speed trap using Ka band from better than a mile away on an open, flat road.

    Works great, never be surprised by a cop hiding around the corner or at the bottom of a hill. With the hardwire kit and mirror mount it looks great and out of the way.

    Really good range, saved me a few times, driving in NYC is horrible though with the speed and red light warnings because they are on every single block, so if you live in an area with a lot of speed cameras you may need to disable that setting because it get really annoying
