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.

    This radar detector works as expected. It does very well at alerting u of a cop at a distance with the only shortcomings being coming up over a hill; i dont think this is unique to this unit. from my little experience with laser speed guns, it would seem most detectors fail to alert u before its to late. Once again, not a problem unique to this device.

    I really love this radar detector. As everyone should know it is not a guarantee against a ticket, but this product has saved me many tickets. I love the range. It gives me plenty of time to adjust my speed. The only reason I gave it a 4 instead of a 5 is that I wish it had a rechargeable battery backup. I don’t like to leave it visible in certain areas so I have to remove the unit and also the power cable when I want to hide it.

    Save me a $200 ticket on the first day of usage. Wasnt too sure about this one it’s also n sale. But it’s working well and has a good range. LEO was about 1.5 miles away and over a hill detector found him!

    There is a common misconception with these devices; they are not cop detectors. With that being said, it does a fantastic job at picking up active radar. I run only Ka band as that is what is primarily used by LEO’s in my area.
