Radar Detector
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.not a bad product just not worth the price tag, too many false “ka bands”

Great unit, needs bluetooth enabled
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just got this unit after having the R7 for a few years, which I loved. Initial impressions is this seems to filter better/is quieter, and I love the new features. (Auto mode is a great idea!) I just wish Uniden would enable the new bluetooth feature and then have their own and other apps be able to connect.

I like my sense of false security
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This R8 replaced my aging 9500ix, and it is so much better in every aspect. Detection is great, finds everything. The filtering for blind spot monitoring is good -- sometimes it misses a couple, but quickly corrects. GPS is a little slow, both in initial connection and filtering out what you've previously filtered, but it's not too big of a deal.

Hand down the best
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Simply the best radar system I have ever used I upgraded from the unden R3 for my main car. I have two, one still in second car. And even though I only drive it in the summer I’m going to purchase a second one. The best feature is the mute memory that remembers past mutes

Mike in Ar
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have the R7 and love it. The R8 is even better. Has an auto mode which automatically switches between highway and city modes based on your speed. And you can adjust the lower speed so if you are under a set limit say 30 mph it will not even alarm if you wand. I highly recommend it

The best!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I drive alot. Once this radar is tuned in to your needs its absolutely the best bang for your buck. On long stretches of highway it easily detects KA bands for up to a mile away. I also have oversized tires and the GPS speed odometer function is fantastic. 10/10 recommend!
