    One of the most recommended detectors online and word of mouth from friends. Wife’s got a lead got so this should help! I’ve hardwired hers into her rear view mirror but if we ever need to move it to the SUV for road trips it’s easily plugged in!

    Served me well so far. Good range, ability to change the sound of each band and great customizability. Not too many patrol cars running radar in my area but has picked up every one that is.

    Works as it should. Detects from very far giving you plenty of time to correct your speed. I definitely recommend to anyone looking for one of these.

    Not really sure yet

    I've been using it every day. Drive approximately 600 miles a day. Yes very sensitive, but not sure if it works in Ohio. Main gripe I have is, I cannot mount it on the window nor the visor. So I used the two puny pieces of velcro they give you. The unit gets warm melts the glue the heavy springy power cord hooks on the left of the unit and it pulls the unit left. So I'm constantly repositioning it. Need a big piece of velcro for the dash so I can hold onto it so I can get it off. And get rid of the heavy springy power cord and give me a wire power cord. So far I trust the Waze app way more than the unit. Not sure if I like it or trust it yet. I might try the escort unit, or I might just stay with the Waze app.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Great detector amazing range.

    I have had this radar detector for a few weeks now, and I love it. I have read a lot of reviews and watched numerous videos (Vortex Radar on YouTube) and this has some of the best reviews beating out some other higher priced detectors. This has some great BSM (Blind Spot Monitoring) Filtering the only cars that seem to give false alerts are Accura/Honda and GM cars. You just have to be aware when driving. The GPS features are worth the extra $100 over the R1. They help to keep the detector more quiet when driving around town With the current firmware 1.30 and taking some time to learn more about radar you can have an amazing setup. For the next model I would love for Uniden to include arrows but its not need as long as you pay attention to the alerts the detector is giving you. Do yourself a favor and search this detector on YouTube and you'll see.
