Great radar detector warns you over 2 miles away and gives you plenty of time to be aware

Nice radar detector.good value it does the job its created to do

Awesome unit , good range , works great , great value , get what you pay for !

very good for the price. i would recommend it on a budget.

I own 2 ESCORT 9500i but when it comes to UNIDEN R3, there is no other radar detector as ACCURATE & QUITE. Also the PRICE is way CHEAPER than ESCORT!!!

Easy to set up. As well as directions and instant results

In the past i only bought escort radar detectors. I gave uniden and cobra a chance 10 years ago and they were far too inferior so stuck with the expensive but worth it Escort model. My radar detectors typically last about 10 years. I saw this at my BB when looking for a new replacement .I have nothing but good to say about this detector so far. I hope it lasts as long as escorts do. Many great features with many less false alarm notifications than the escort. Most Honda cars would set off the escort with their blindspot monitors. This new Uniden has solved those issues as well as providedd many other customizations. This detector also comes with a great windshield mount which is a pricey option for the escorts. Long advance notice which is a huge must have with my heavy foot.

Great radar detector, long range and accurate. Still picks up alot of k band signals that are not police but still worth it for the other alerts.

I ordered this for my sons car, then moved it to mine to continue setup and testing. I have a V1 gen 1 in my car and my wife has a V1 gen 2 in hers. I’ll be returning this in the next few days and just order a V1 gen 2 for my car and moving the old one to my son’s. I’m in an area where I can’t disable K or X bands… X really isn’t the issue. The K band is absolutely unusable on this. On 100% K, I get an alarm every 30 seconds, new car or old car, everywhere I go around our farm lands. I reduce the sensitivity to 60% and it gets rid of most alarms, but still an occasional 24.079 K band. Every automated shopping door alarms it. Turning K to narrow helps. When driving through small towns where houses are very close to the road, non stop K alarms and occasional X alarms. Neither of our V1’s do any of this. Gen 1 never false alarms, but probably misses a handful of cop radar. The Gen 2 alarms if you pull up to one specific Dollar General in our area, and used to alarm in our downtown in one spot, until V1 put out their most recent update. The R3 update process is too cumbersome, it’s way too chatty, and just seems like the old 90’s detectors that just constantly alarm. The GPS thing is really just a gimmick and has zero use if you’re driving new areas alot. With proper support and updates, these detectors are much more effective and falses go away. Really, save up $520 and order a V1.

This detector is far superior to my previous passport 9800i. False alarms are much less frequent which gives me much more confidence when it does go off.

I love the product, it works great. It spots the cops and red light cameras from far away!

This radar detector is great, user friendly and very accurate

Works great and detects from over a mile. Saved me a lot. I for sure recommend getting this.

As far as radar detectors go this is pretty great. It is able to recognize the newest forms of radar so future proof is good with this. I wish it automatically recognized false alarm radars like the Escorts do, but for much less money this is fine, and you just push a button to have it memorize where the false alerts are. I definitely recommend this because Uniden has some very good distance compare to the Cobra I had before.

Works great and easy to use don’t have many false alarms.

This is the best radar detector I have ever owned. It picks up Radar from a fairly long distance (about a mile on a roadside radar sign) . It does have some false warnings but not nearly as many as my last detector. Lots of options for custom settings. I wish it was a little louder as I like to play my music loud and don't hear it go off when the radio is cranked but that is the only issue I have with it. Can't beat this for the price.

So far it seems to be doing the trick. Had it lighting up like 3 miles away from where the cop was running radar so seems to pick up the signals far away (this was in the open/flat areas of TX). Noticed that when it's more hilly it still seems to do a decent job at picking up the signal.

I really like this radar detector. I own several including a Escort 360, and this is half the weight and just as sensitive as the Escort, and less expensive. One recommendation is to do a factory reset on the device before attempting to use it because it comes out of the box in some sort of demo mode and will not take any setting changes until you first do a factory reset.

Works great, awesome value for money. Would highly recommend.

AMAZING PRODUCT!! VERY ACCURATE! Perfect for people who like to speed
