Customer Ratings & Reviews

This was my first radar detector purchase about a month ago and I am very happy with it. There are tons of options in the settings to detect all sorts of bands including laser and it detects these signals in a pretty far radius. I'm not one to speed too often but this can definitely save you some money from tickets in the long run.

this was the best few hundred dollars i have spent...great range and has saved me dozens of times...the only downfall is the 2 suction cup mount...i ended buying the 3 suction cap option and has not fallen off the window in 2 years

This unit works the best. I couldn't have made a better buy than this one. Works just as it was described, To me no flaws and would tell I my friends this is one to have in your car,

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.

Works very well as advertised. Range is great I would highly recommend

Worked very well on our recent vacation roadtrip. 3000 miles and extremely accurate. Will pick up a lot of cars lane departure sensors. You’ll notice the frequency on those and be able to mute.

It works well and definitely saved me from a few tickets, just make sure you turn off all other bands except ka, oherwise itll go off all the time. The laser detector wont go off till it's too late, but for that youd want a jammer anyway. My only complaint with this is you don't know what direction the radar is coming from. But I guess that's why uniden came out with the r7.

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.

Awesome purchase has saved me tons of trouble 1000 percent recommend

I have this and the Uniden R1. No real difference except for the GPS, which doesn't seem that useful to me. The problem with this unit is the false alarms. Whether on the highway or in the city, not a minute goes by without the blaring blast of K band. Both before and after the latest update it was a constant stream of these false alarms. I had an older Beltronics that didn't go off nearly as often. The only saving grace (for my situation) is that you can turn both X band and K band off completely. I am only lucky that in my area law enforcement generally only uses Ka band and not K band. Otherwise I would have returned this after one day. I wouldn't recommend it though. Reading reviews there are other detectors out there that have fewer false alarms. If you need it for K band find another detector.

I'm very please with both the range and the filtering of the R3. I get very few false signals during highway driving. The menu system is very comprehensive and allows lots of customization. I especially like the ability to set the detector to mute below a set speed. I set mine to 20 mph, which keeps it quiet when I'm driving near shoppings centers where there are many extraneous signals.

This is a great product and it has saved me tremendously since I installed it.

I couldn't decide between this and the Escort. I have owned Escorts for 25 years and never looked at another brand. This one had great reviews and had a greater detection distance than the Escort. It does detect Ka band from far away. Now the K band. This thing will go off all the time in K band. It gets annoying. It seems to pick up park assist/lane departure/radar cruise control systems on every car around you along with automatic doors on businesses (which I haven't had any warnings in years on my older Escorts). You will want to turn off the K band for sanity.

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!

Very good product, happy to have , definitely recommend

It’s fantastic and it works great! Accuracy is on point. If you want to go fancy with it get the R8 version

the item works really well at detecting police signals, only thing that can get annoying are automatic doors but it doesn’t bother me much. but over all i would definitely recommend this product

awesome product I have bought 3 of them they have saved me from tickets many times. by the way this isn't a advertisement to speed !!!

My girlfriend bought this for me for Christmas and I was at first disappointed that it was not an Escort Passport. I always considered them to be the best. She said that a Best Buy associate actually recommended the Uniden over the Escort. I checked out the reviews and the BB associate was correct and this thing is awesome!

Has a very good range but there does seem to be a lot false alarms.
