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.

    I used the Uniden R3 right out of the box. The alarm tones are pleasant sounding.

    I got this for my girlfriend because her new job brings her past 40 miles of various speed traps daily. I set it up for her and it really needed to be tweaked because it was going off when it shouldn't and then not going off when it should. I was willing to tweak it to perfection for her but she was very disillusioned by how "non-plug-and-play" it was--so back to the store it went. Definitely not for non-tech geeks.

    This detector does everything well. There are some things that could be easier to use, but nothing out there beats this detector for its price point.

    I purchase this radar detector while out of town. It’s an upgrade from my 7 year old bell detector. Driving 1,000 miles back home I had bother radar detectors on my dash. My old bell worked perfectly except false detections of K band. The new uniden R3 never went off the entire trip. Will be returning it ASAP

    I was hoping that this would be a good upgrade to the Escort IX, but it was far too noisy. I attempted to tune it using all of the suggested configurations, but it just kept going off when Honda's/Acura's and Chryslers went were around. Also, it doesn't automatically remove door openers, as the Escort GPS units do. I am just going to spend a little more and get the Escort 360C. Tired of wasting money trying to save a little.
