Customer Ratings & Reviews

First off radar detector not cop detector lol some people get that confused. I have used. Cheap cobra ones less then 100$ they always go off for blind spot, people’s garage doors. This one filters that out very well. City most of these are hit and miss. High way mode and traveling I have picked up highway patrol 3-4 miles away. Almost installs a sense of false security haha. I use it everyday. No issues. Has a gps built in to store spots that have radar signs so it doesn’t go off. Get one read how it works and what to look for. Learn it’s habits and you will be surprised. People tell you these don’t work lol they are wrong. You still blow past a cop without radar on or do something stupid it’s not gonna save you. But if there radar is on and pointed at you it will let you know. If there’s one thing not to go cheap on is a radar detector. 100% get what you pay for.

This thing is so accurate and has such a great range, I absolutely cannot stand to drive without this awesome radar. 100% think it's the best purchase I've made in a while!

Does not throw a lot of false alerts, I have not had any issues with it. K band does go off a lot near stores due to the auto doors.

The R3 is one of the best radar detectors I've used. The range is better than the R1 in my experience. Gps auto mute is great as well. Would definitely recommend

Worth every penny. Great radar detector. It has very long rang capabilities and it does what is says.

This radar detector is worth every penny. The distance at which you're alerted is insane! It's easy to use and install in your car.

I have the max 360, and i am replacing it with this. The max 360 is a great device, but i was looking for something that's more long range. this device is also small and light.

Long range and easy to use menus, this is well worth the purchase. Was holding off until I found a good one in my price range.

This detector is the bomb, I mean that in the best way. I had the cobra 480i and it started driving me crazy with all the false alerts so I upgraded to this. It's like night and day, you can customize every thing on this puppy. As for false alerts with this model you just tap mark button and it recalls alert and stops it, COOL. I purchased a mirror mount and get power from my top console so no wires hanging, it's great. And firmware update was easy as pie.

Best bang for your money. I took a road trip from pa drove to Miami then drove to Atlanta then back to Pa over 3500 miles and I was really impressed that it did it’s job keeping the troopers in my rear view

Great detector with really good range. I have the R8 which costs twice as much but has only about 10% more range in my opinion. The HPD memory feature is nice since everything seems to run K band these days. The auto off after an hour makes sure to never run the car battery as well. Highly recommended

I am very impressed with overall quality, easy to use and how accurate it is, overall it has great performance.

This unit does a great job of detecting Ka at long range and finding and marking false K band notifications. Mounts easily and isn't so large as to look conspicuous.

I've used this radar detector on an almost daily basis for over two years and never had any issues. It's very sensitive and has been a reliable and effective warning system that has saved me from potential tickets more than once. A great investment and much cheaper than a speeding ticket and increased auto insurance.

This works perfectly and detects things way before I ever see them. It also has a feature to set up memory muting for specific spots where you know it’ll go off every day. If you do purchase this please consider looking at a blend mount set up. They work very well and it looks super great. Very satisfied with the purchase.

Nice mid price detector, very sensitive, accurate, can detect from distance.

By far the best radar detector I’ve ever owned. I’ve had many the top of the line detectors throughout my life but this by far is the best complete package and has already saved me some from getting a ticket more than a few times. Great detection range, even around corners, hills, etc... it also is very good locking out false alerts caused by store security sensors, car sensors, and many others compared to other detectors. Highly recommend to anyone looking for the best top of line radar detector!!!

This detector is not like the others. The long-range feature works GREAT! I especially love the ability to tag locations where you get erroneous signals with the GPS features. Having the ability to update the detector is also a plus. One really cool feature worth mentioning is the mute function on the plug so you don't have to reach up to the detector to mute it when it is continually going off and it is only for that signal. Once it picks up a different signal it unmutes so you don't get busted. Lol.

This is honestly the best radar the best bang for your buck don’t cheap out on the cobra one cuz you want a cheap radar!

I researched models for some time and came to find Best Buy to have plenty of stock and reliable reviews on the Uniden R3. Shipping was extremely fast, and the package includes multiple mounting options and accessories. I would recommend also purchasing a "BlendMount radar holder" (separate source for purchase) if you are looking for a clean, no exposed wire, look. Has helped me during my travels across multiple states identifying new speed limits and police enforcement.
