Really good unit.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After doing much research, the unit in R8 is certainly the best supported radar detector out there. When you’re doing a lot of highway driving and paired with the app Waze you can drastically reduce your speeding liabilities. I am happy with the unit, except for the fact that there are a lot of false triggers on K band.

Worth it!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works very well for me. I also use the R8 app to ensure a quieter drive. However, don't anticipate a setting for every situation. When traveling across states, you may need to utilize other apps. The R8 app can be used in conjunction with the Waze App for added protection. Above all, be caution while speeding—it's not safe!

One of the best
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easily the best or one of the best detectors available. Alerts miles ahead of the threat and with accuracy. Only downside is the constant false alerts from cars and other reactive devices.

Excellent Product
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The price of this product is expensive, however in the long run it will pay off. Its range is incredible, and works perfectly even through carbon tint. I highly recommend downloading the Uniden app on computer and tweaking the radar detector to your liking.

Totally Worth the Money!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was a little hesitant to spend the money... but am so glad that I did. The speeding tickets I avoided in the first month alone made it worth the price. The range on this thing is unbelievable. I won't drive anywhere without my R8.

The real deal!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Saved me from 3 speed traps in one day. Legit product, this stuff has some power! I’m happy I made the investment. At first I thought it didn’t work until one morning it saved me from a speed trap in north bay village Florida. Cop was hidden well with multiple motorcycle cops stoping people from all directions. Ever since that day I’ve never questioned the R8!
