Customers are saying

Customers find value in the R3 DSP Long Range Radar and Laser Detector, particularly praising its impressive range and overall performance, which is comparable to higher-end models. Users appreciate its radar detection capabilities, accuracy, ease of use, and the inclusion of GPS for camera updates. While some mention false alarms and suggest turning off K band, the detector's size is considered reasonable.

    Ticket Saver

    Ticket saver for sure. Bought this for a cross country road trip. Gave me a heads up miles out on some pretty sneaky troopers. Spots them from the rear, up ahead or coming from opposite direction. Has laser function; that has only gone off once and fortunately I was well under the limit. You wont regret this purchase.

    OK, obviously I wouldn't purchase this unless there's a reason. I'm not exactly the most adherent to speed limits, and I don't really want tickets. My old radar detector was going on 20 years old, so it was time for an upgrade. This thing is great; has excellent range and a display that I love.

    Works great for Ka band in my city, avoids false alarms and has mute option button which is great. I like the original window mount, but comes with fancy mount too. Case is nice as well, I always keep mine secure when leaving the car.

    I like it for it's accurate warnings and it's ease of mounting however the speed numbers (GPS reading) is difficult to see when wearing sunglasses.

    Beats my Escort Redline

    Once you get this thing set up it's way better than the Escort RedLine or any other radar detector that I've had. Favorite thing is being able to mark locations for false alarms. I compared it side-by-side for a week against my Redline with all the segments set. The R3 always alarmed first so is the clear winner. I sold the redline and the R3 has been on my window for since.

    Easily paid for itself as I tend to speed a little. Has detected police using radar up to 3 miles away on flat highways! Very good for the price. Highly highly recommend!

    Performed excellent during our recent road trip through five states. This device will give you a warning ahead of time so you can correct your speed during driving. We'll see how it holds up in the future but it's off to a excellent start in my opinion.
