Amazing unit! Totally recommend
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Debated over the other models and settled for the R8, i’d rather buy once than buy twice! Very satisfied with it

The best radar out there.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hands down an efficient device. A friendly indicator to remind you that you may accidentally be going over the speed limit and to politely slow down to avoid that accidental violation.
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:False alerts

Better than the R7
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This detector is better and much more reactive than my R7. I got this expecting the Bluetooth function to be enabled shortly after but we're still waiting.

Could be great…
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Would very easily be 5 stars, if it didn’t have serious issues. The good: Amazing range Low false alerts Mute memory Auto muting Customization The bad: GPS sometimes just doesn’t connect Bluetooth to the app just doesn’t connect sometimes The Ugly: $700 Radar detector that will randomly get stuck in a loop of going through the different brightnesses making it a talking brick that doesn’t detect anything

Quality and functionality of product is garbage
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product is garbage. The LASER on it never worked. You can query the web and find many people with the same problem. The power cord came out and now the device doesn't even work. SAVE YOU MONEY, GO WITH A DIFFERENT BRAND.

This one, or the max 360?
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Radar detectors today are expensive ($700)and so I rate the value as “ fair”. I did like how the iPhone app is simple in bare bones. The radar detector seems to be effective in detecting, K and Ka band signals. I had to switch off the K band because I was getting redundant alarms. I like how the kit includes two suction cups, but I wish both suction cups were the same large size. I’ve also owned the escort Max 360 and I’m questioning whether that one may have been better.

Uniden R8
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was trying to decide between uniden R8 and escort redline detector. I’m the end the R8 was the better choice IMO at this time. So far it’s been great!

Upgraded my detector
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works quite well. Upgraded from Escort 9500ix. Then flexibility of options makes it work very well in signaling actual radar hits. Build quality could be better but functionality is great.

R8 radar detector review...
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's been great. Many may think it's a little clunky but it's the best detector I've ever had. it picks up signals almost 2 miles away at times. Really cool!!!

But it now
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its cheaper than a speeding ticket after impound fees and higher insurance rates. Buy the metal rear view mirror mount if you live in CA.

Great Radar
