The refurbished unit comes like a brand new unit

The refurbished unit comes like a brand new unit. The performance is amazing and once the user customizable k notches are tailored to how you want them, wow, it's the quietest detector I have. I have various new and older models that are still relevant such as the max4, 700i, R1, and max2. There is absolutely no comparison with the R8. Really happy with the purchase! Thank you Uniden!

Disappointing

Disappointing App, third party apps are needed to get the most out of the unit. Update utility on Mac is useless and does not work. The unit sometimes is fails to switch arrows properly with know sources.
These are things I failed to research properly prior to purchasing.
Didn’t realize the laser units were not available for the non-W model. Also, they require dealer install. These are things I failed to learn before purchasing.
Overall, Uniden is probably a good company but these issues made this seem like a letdown.
