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.

    I've owned many brands of detectors throughout my life and this is the king. If you get a ticket armed with this unit in your vehicle, then you probably deserve it. You'll be forewarned long in advance of the threat. Just buy it, it'll pay for itself many times over.

    Extremely long Ka Band Detection

    This is an all around superb radar detector. The only drawback is the power adapter plug is on the left side of unit. This made for the power cord to hang across the radio/air condition controls since lighter adapter is on the right side of vehicle. Functionality and K/Ka detection outweighs my minor issue with power adapter plug and material construction is high quality.

    Still falses to K band, but does amazingly otherwise. You can't beat the range in this price point, and the rear detection is surprisingly good considering the lack of rear antenna. I only don't use it anymore because I got a Uniden R7

    Okay so I was trying to decide should I get this or the R7, I ended up going with R3 because of price and it seemed to not be too far off from the R7. Yes , I do wish I had the arrows but this one I recommend.

    I did a lot of back and forth if I wanted to spend the "big bucks" on a radar detector or get a cheaper one. I'm glad I got the R3, the range is excellent. I've had KA alerts a full mile before the police car was in view.

    It's fantastic; it picks up the KA band (Radar) from far away. I can be driving up a curvy mountain, and it still picks it up from far away. I defiantly recommend it.

    Love how this can detect speed scanners of any kind within before I get visibility. Only caveat to this for being 4 stars is that if I muted it, it comes back on when it detects another radar later on and start beeping again, other then that...this product is great!

    While it is expensive it has paid for itself in saved tickets. I did a lot of research on the right radar detector to buy and I feel I made the right choice. Only minor complaint is I wish the cord was on the opposite side.

    This works much better than my previous radar detector. I highly recommend watching some YouTube videos on adjusting the settings. Downloading and updating the firmware is not as easy and straightforward as it should be.

    I have had this radar detector for a couple of months now and it has saved me from a couple of tickets. The long range feature is amazing. It has picked up radar about 1 - 1.5 miles out it gives you enough time to slow down.
