Game changer with integrated Highway Radar app

Uniden R8 Price Match
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Happy with the radar detector purchase. Pretty expensive will pay for itself avoiding a speeding ticket. Best Buy price-matched the Uniden Store on AZMN, so saved $100 and have 18 months free financing. Great deal from BB. Merry Christmas to me!

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.

Pretty good so far.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far has been pretty good, it’s learning areas I drive and already muting some of the door radars that set it off. It’s a bit noisy in town until it’s starts to learn, but much quieter after it does learn your area. And the distance it picks up KA and K is just nuts. Has to be miles on the interstate.

I have a New Favorite Radar Detector
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I previously had the R7 and when it needed to be replaced, I went with another Uniden and the R8 model. It has everything you want in detection including new photo radar detection just coming to the US. Easy to set up and looking forward to updated software and features in the Future
