Customer Ratings & Reviews

The R3 is the best radar detector available. Same performance as the R7 if you can do without the arrows. 200$ cheaper and less bulky than the R7.

Uniden r3 works as advertised, long range, with gps, easy as it was set for your state used radar and mrcd, wonderful! Price is a little expensive compared to amazon

If you are looking for a radar detector with all the vital features at a slightly lower price point, look no further than the Uniden R3. With full customization, from adjustable band sensitivity to various tones for each alert, the R3 is truly a device that can improve anyone's driving experience. The built-in GPS allows for manual location lockouts and red light camera spotting, while the low-speed muting and traffic sensor filtering help fend off false alerts.

The detection on this thing is insane. Sometimes miles. Plenty of time to slow down. It is extremely loud when you get an alert. Such good quality for a reasonable price. Don't think about it, just buy it. You will not be sorry

This thing is great. Saved me a few times already very good range. This is for radar that police shoot so it won’t pick up police not using radar. That’s where your runner comes in. Some cars give off false alerts that are a low freq like ka 34.202 and a police radar would be something like 34.715 <police in my area

Best radar detector for the money. Very long range. Easy mounting options. Check out Vortex Radar, he is a pro when it comes to radar detectors. He will show you how to set it up properly. Only downfall is the false alerts from Hondas, Acuras, and some Chryslers. These alerts come from their Blind Spot Monitoring Systems. You will quickly learn the false alert and it becomes second nature to ignore them. I do not drive excessively fast, but it has certainly already paid for itself. The range is so good that I have plenty of time to slow to the speed limit before getting close enough for LEO to identify my speed. Buy now!

Amazing accuracy for under $500, this radar detector can almost see into the future. So much better than my cheaper one. Well worth the extra money.

Very good unit with almost no false alarms. Has gps chip so you can flag false and location to memory. Very good price compared to other brand with the same features.

I drove around for years with an older Escort Passport, and didn't know how in the dark ages I was until I got this R3. Range? Incredible. In upstate NY, state police drive around with Ka band on full blast. This Uniden sniffs them out around corners and over hills so well that I assumed it was giving false positives for awhile. False alerts? Next to none. Uniden seems like a committed company to its customers with regular, free updates, that include more filtering abilities. And if there is a false alert, its very easy to mark as such by double clicking the Mute/Dim button.

This thing has saved me from many tickets. I can’t believe how far pout it will pick up a radar. Once you have used it a little while you truly know how it works and notice how far off it will alert your to a potential speeding ticket. It also has gps that you can mark spots where police may be sitting and it will give you an alert anytime you are near that spot again. You can do this for many spots and it will remember them all for you.

A very reliable midrange high sensitivity radar detector for city and extremely long highway range! Stealthy and can peek around corners and the other side of hills and canyons! I'm extremely satisfied with the overall performance of this radar detector! It's a very affordable radar detector for the average income customer!

Works great, really accurate. Can customize points within the device.

This is my first radar detector and I was pleased with the purchase. We decided to buy this since we wanted one on our month long road trip and this did not disappoint. We did get a few false alerts and I think it would pick up signals from other vehicles having radar detectors, but it also correctly alerted us to not only cops and speed detectors, but also picked up oncoming cops from the opposite side of the traffic. We concluded our trip without any violations.

I have had many radar detectors in the past but Uniden detects laser and K band signals far ahead in advance and you cant beat this for the price compared to others in the market.

A really good unit for the price. So far so great! Easy to program and it works well on all types of radar.

Amazing product tells you instantly where the cops at pointing and tells u from couple miles away.

Bought this just before a road trip. It has already paid for itself. Still getting to know the various alerts and figuring out which ones to disregard, but I have found the range on this detector is incredible. The alerts come a long time before you are even close to being within range of police radar. Identifies the signals and starts alerting well over a mile out even with hills and turns ahead. By far the best radar detector I have ever used.

Very happy with this product. I had an older, cheaper model and just replaced this and used on a trip from Raleigh, NC to Tampa FL and back and it was just amazing. Picked up every cop, hardly any times could I not find what it was signaling, and the temp mute on the plug is very handy. I also like how initial beeps are loud then immediately softens so it gets my attention but does not annoy the crap out of me. Great buy.

As expensive as tickets are, this is a good investment. Great range and it is easy to use. It has great ratings and is several hundred less than the other top of the line brands I would consider. Great product, especially for the money. Directional indicators would be nice, but I can live without them for the savings. I would not be surprised to see them added soon, but it would require a second antenna and would likely add to the cost.

It’s a great radar detector and the range is very very solid with minimal false alerts. If you get a KA hit you know there is law enforcement somewhere near by. The only thing I’m bugged about is the return policy. I did want to return it because I wanted to get the best of the best so I bought an escort redline 360C and I was going to return the uniden but I was two days outside the return policy. Kinda bugged and it doesn’t get any hits on KSL
