Customers are saying

Customers regard the R7 Radar Detector highly for its impressive range and accurate radar detection capabilities, praising its ease of use and the helpful directional arrows. However, some users experienced a high number of false alerts and found the device to be bulky and expensive. The K band detection, while effective for some, also proved problematic for others due to false positives.

    The radar detector works well except for that it has false alerts to blind spot detection and adaptive cruise on mostly from Honda and GM vehicles because the FCC doesn't do their job. The FCC should be eliminated and everyone working at the FCC should be fired on the spot and denied unemployment.

    Great detector already saved me a ticket. Its a little chatty at first but after a couple of weeks it quiets down. Would definitely recommend, however if you can live without the arrows the R3 or even the dfr7 are great too.

    Amazing. I have an R3 as well. Now to have this with arrows? Fantastic. It's just a little more sensitive than my R3.

    The Unidentified R7 is the best radar detector I have used. The accuracy and scanning distance cannot be beat. The price is high, if it saves you one ticket. It pays for itself in no time.

    Used it the first time from SF to LA trip. Insane range. Caught two taking Ka band. I'm using the single suction mount, very strong. Hoping to hardwire later. Highly recommended.

    The BB buying experience left a lot to be desired (1/5). However, the R7 is an outstanding radar detector for sure. With the recent v1.35 software release enabling GPS lockouts, makes for a quite ride!! Love the arrows!

    I really like the audio features but one or two of the sounds it makes can catch you off guard so it takes some getting used to. Ready to use out of the box but can be modified to suit individual needs.

    Best long range radar detector for the money. BSM filtering isn't as good as V1 or other competition imo, but if you're just looking to look out for cops (mostly Ka band) in the neighborhood, this is the one.

    This is a great detector. It is light weight, detection range is very good, and the arrows work well. There are more configuration options than every other detector on the market. Firmware is easily updated.

    Great purchase. Still learning to use it but it picks up radar in front and behind. It does have small beeps around certain construction sites or phone towers but learning to manage those
