Mama, I'm goin fast!
By tigersmoonva on Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2025
Outstanding unit. Picks up speed traps miles away accurately and provides ample time to react accordingly. Directional arrows are a nice touch, so you know which direction trouble is located in. Can be overly sensitive in dense urban areas, but has a GPS mute feature which allows you to mark and silence alerts in specific places. Pricey, but a solid investment if you like to drive fast. A must have accessory for any sports car.

Great radar detector that COSTS WAY TOO MUCH!
By Barbarus on Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2025
Wow, I'm really impressed with this unit! The only reason it's getting three starts instead of five is because it is several years old tech being sold for startlingly high price tag - $700 will buy laptops these days, Uniden! OTOH, this R8 is replacing my "2008 Escort Solo S2 Passport" unit that saved me a gazillion dollars over the years. I liked that well enough, but this R8 is miles better - the customizability allowed me (with the help of Radar Vortex) to set it up nicely for the tech in use by most of my local LEO agencies (I only live a few miles from Radar Vortex's editor), so the signal:noise ratio on this unit is much improved over my previous unit and with the addition of a bespoke mirror tap wiring harness for my Ford Mach-e, the hard-wired install was simple and the result was elegant. The display customizations for this unit allows it to blend in nicely with my vehicle's cockpit, and the only way I could be any happier with the result is they had CHARGED ME SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS LESS FOR THIS PRODUCT! :-)
